Hi Sara! Welcome back; I'm sure you'll miss Mik, but it's nice to have you back with us.

I've been playing the game, just not spending much time on the forum (you were away, after all!). Actually, it seemed like there was nothing happening, so I got out of the habit of checking in. 'Tis the season...and all that, I suppose; everyone just got caught up in their real lives. But I was visiting and charging and gifting; I try to keep that up every day at least.

Actually these past few weeks I've been trying to implement the New Year's resolutions I made, and overall, I'm sticking to them--yay me! They might seem pretty basic to other people, so I won't go into the details, but I am managing to take better control of "stuff" rather than letting it control me. As part of that, I've been going to the gym regularly again--funny how easy it is to let everything else take priority and then not go ;'cause you've run out of time. The important point is to get exercise, however one does it. You're in nursing, so you get plenty of exercise just being on the wards!

As for games: I gifted away my acoustic piano two days ago (don't worry, I still have my digital piano--which is always in tune, unlike my old Mason & Risch--sniff, no more ivory and wood keys) and have since moved my desk and computer into its former space, so I can hook up my enormous HD TV screen (my son's actually) to my computer and get back to some of the games I have on Steam. Yeah! I'm looking forward to that; some of them are a lot of fun--even if I do have to get my son to get past some of "the bosses" I think they're called. A lot of modern games have fantastic graphics but they give me motion sickness, too; the bigger screen seems to help.

Ach! Here I am, wittering on again. So much for short messages--it couldn't last. All the best 😙-- Chloe
