Hey Scorpion!  (you sweet thing, you!)

So good to see you again!  Ron gave me your message... kind of kicked my butt to get back here.  Missed you kind folks around here...

Now, *his* pc is down and the last chess move he made was Monday morning... MIA for almost two weeks now!

Hope things are good with you?

Yep.  Small world, that's for sure!

A lot to be said for that seven degrees of separation thing...

(Couldn't agree more on the WCB-thing.  So, I'll count my blessings, instead of dollars!  Oh yeah, that's much better, lol! )

"Hello everyone",
I missed you all & thought of you often.

I just read well-wishes from Scorpion, Justin, Freeze and, of course, Ron.  Thanks guyz....

How's school going Vail?  And, MG, I'd gladly exchange phone numbers with you...

Thanks to Mara & Jeanine & Bev (and Necro!) for staying in touch.  You're all such good people.

All of this really means a lot ...  *sniff* ...  (trying not to cry!  lol...)

And I come back to Lana missing?  Again...!?  (Hope it's nothing to do with that former rice-diet.)

I felt compelled to come back, not only because I missed you all and have wondered how things were going ... but, I have news about Ron!  Poor guy has had his pc down for a week and a half now.  He managed to sneak onto his work pc and quickly send a note while making a desperate move in chess.  (Actually, that's not fair -- he's remembered how to play!  Giving me a good run for my money now...)

I think we need to take up a collection for him to get it fixed!

It's been a tough month, that I'm thinkin' will be tough a while longer.  I just didn't want to bring the board down with my "boo-hooing" and self-pity ...   Which, I'm not going to lie to you, "I'm not okay with, yet."  All I can say is, "I'm trying..."  Poor Colley has had to pull out his best material to keep me laughing lately, and I think he needs some help with that.  He needs a break.  Your turn!

Anyway, good to 'see' you all again.  Nice to know you're all there.
I'll try to visit more often.
