Steph caught me...
I tried SO hard to stay away, but this site is more addictive than CANDY and thats SOMETHING for me to say. I guess the love I have for you all is worth more to me than than one "unknowns" poopy comment.

Hi Rhonda,
I can sympathize with why you needed a break, but I knew I was going to miss your visits to the site, your thoughts and experiences. I'm glad you're back. Thanks !!

That is one of the reasons that we are seriously thinking of allowing registered members only on these boards.

I know what you are all saying. I have taken a few days off because I thought I needed a break but then find myself really missing everyone and back on I go. My friends ask me what do I do in my spare time and when I tell them they say are you sure you are not addicted to the internet!! They just don't understand and that is o.k. as they have never traveled a journey like ours so can not share what we all share here. I too love this board and all my sisters here. hugs, Sandy

OK - Rhonda was the one who told on herself! I only Private Messaged her to let her know that I noticed her name at the bottom of the site where it shows who is online. Also wanted to know how she was faring with the sore throats and getting ready to move - enough to send anyone into a frenzy!
Glad things are looking UP!
