Oh, Julie, no no no, sweetie! My posting less has nothing to do with you, and I didn't notice your comment about the date  -- someone else's. And it was a good reminder -- especially with Ezekiel - Foss had a posting today like that. As much as I try to follow discussions, I miss things, too, and I made a mental note to myself, especially for friends dealing with serious life issues.

No, on another thread I spoke about how I have needed to recharge because I actually have social anxiety,  but this forum has been a safe place. This time of year can be hard and sometimes I need to retreat and regroup. That's all. Last night I attended my hubby's office party - lovely, good time but a challenge for me inside. Today I slept in late and am taking it easy today before handling the next few days of activity.

Julie, you dear, sweet, loyal friend, have been one of my champions from the very start. You are a rock of support, calm and reassurance -- especially through a couple rough spells here. I adore you, and you could never upset me in any way. It's just me.
