I just got home from a terrible thanksgiving trip home to upstate NY. I had to take my mother to the hospital and live through 72 of sleepless hours of emergency room foolishness, massive intestinal surgery and intensive care. She is not out of the woods yet and will take months to recover.
I'm gonna feed my cats, crash, and head north again later in the week, and I can not imagine having the time (or connectivity) to continue my various moderator roles.
Its been wonderful experience, thank you all for your friendship, great ideas, creative(often hysterical)posts. I will return!!
...as well as a speedy recovery for her. That's a tough way to spend Thanksgiving but from what I'm reading, you were there for her when she needed you the most.
Sometimes we have to take a pause from doing the things that we like to do to tend to more obligatory matters.
Take deep breaths, be sure and keep a level head on your shoulders and try an occasional "out of body experience" to survey the big picture. (LOL)
Life would be boring without its many challenges and obstacles. You just have to remember that you are up for the challenges and have nimble feat to dance around the obstacles.
We await your return!
Best regards to you and your family, our prayers are with you.
Here's hoping that all will turn out well, and that you will be returningto your other "family" soon. I think I speak for all when I say that all of our thoughts are with you.
I'm very sorry to hear that your mother is ill, and I wish her a speedy recovery. You have been an outstanding moderator and an invaluble help around here, and, should you ever decide you would like to come back and moderate again, you are always welcome.
Take good care of yourself, and I will keep you in my thoughts.
my prayers and thoughts are with you and your mom. As we all realize in life, family is #1. Take care of each another and may she have a speedy recovery.
