Thank You

As you may or may not have noticed, I have been absent from mylot for a short time. It wasn't anything to do with the site, but rather more on a personal level. I was going through some difficult times and there were several people from this site who reached out to help me in any way they could. I can't tell you how much it meant to have someone care that you have never even met. I also wanted to say thank you to those who have welcomed me back so warmly in the few discussions that I have participated. It is nice to know that I was missed. I'm doing better and I think things will eventually be ok. In my absence, I too, have wondered about the friends I have made on this site and how they were doing. So how are you?

It was very kind of you to respond to the discussion especially since you aren't familiar with me. I was around quite a bit until I started having some personal issues. I've been gone for over a month. I hope to share many discussions with you now that I am back.

Some days we are all like ships sailing off in our seperate directions. I'm off work today. Seems like it takes forever for your day off to come around.

I was wondering where you went. Glad you are back. I certainly hope that life has gotten more back to normal for you. It can be rough when life throws you curve balls. Glad you are back.

Well, I'm not back like I was before. I am just answering a few discussions tentatively. Alot has happened and I'm feeling a bit numb from it all and not ready to share like I was, but I'm ok and doing better. Glad to see you too. Thanks for welcoming me back.

I did notice your absence kbourgerie but I am not one for pushing myself on people and so I figured that you would be back when you were ready. I am glad that you are OK though and hopefully you have sorted everything out. I am fine, still here and posting as usual! Not as much though you know, I have cut down the amount of hours I spend here as I was getting a bit fed up of it. xx

Just in a few days of observing I can't help but notice that there is alot of discord on this site right now. Is that why you are fed up with it?

Yes there is a lot of discord here again and I do find it gets me down, I come here to get away from things and it seems that it just follows me here too! Its nice to see you around again xx

I think you become part of the big Mylot family! and when members disappear or have troubles, other members and friends rally around to support them and I certainly bear witness to this, when I was going through a very bad patch in my life I got the help and support to see me through, I am very happy to say I am on the road to recovery, thanks to therapy and going to the gym 4-5 times a week, things have changed for me and I am actually starting to enjoy love, I am starting to be more positive. We all go through difficult times in our lives my friends and knowing that we have friends who care and are always willing to support makes all the difference, I always say at times of troubles you soon know who your real friends are! Welcome back and a big Wolfie hug to you xxx

I guess we are all fine and it is good news that you overcome the difficult times. It is even more pleasing to hear that you have online friends who have given you some helping hand. It is the tough who moves on when the going gets tough. Keep going!

Hello kbourgerie, I hope everything is fine now with your personal problem. Everybody has problem, whether they are small or big, is nice to know if you have someone to rely to, comfort you or reach to you. It doesn't matter if it is even a stranger because we start our frienship stranger to each other. As with regards to your questions, I am fine, thank you. I just got well from a sickness and now feeling better. I do have some personal issue but it may not be as grave as you. Welcome back and see you around here!

Hi KB. I would just like you to know, I'm one of the people who are happy to see you back. As for me, I make even fewer posts than usual because I am busy with my other online activities. But I still visit mylot everyday.

We are glad to have you back! I understand that you have been dealing with some very personal issues. Just pray about them. God will see you through, every step of the way. I myself have just gotten back on myLot, this past Sunday. I was away for one week and five days. This has been the longest that I have been away. But now, I am back, and I am glad to be here. Right now, I am fine, just still stressed, but I will live. I am glad to know that you are doing much better, just hang in there!

I am sorry that you have not been doing well. I sincerely hope you are much better now. And welcome back. It's nice to see you again. It's a time consuming thing getting caught up while after being absent for a short time. We understand this. We are just glad to see you back.

Yes kbourgerie I have noticed you've been MIA here but glad to see you back. And I know what you mean about people reaching out from here during rough times as I've had that myself and it's great to know friends here, friends that we may never ever meet are willing to help out in such a way..sometimes even better than friends we know in "real" life.

hi kbourgerie, I have missed you and wondered where you were and how you were doing. I have been fighting the shingles for almost seven weeks and whileits getting better it still itches and hurts. was going to see my doctor at three this afternoon and my cab never showed up. gggrrrr. so had to reschedule for this friday. then I called and the cab guy declared that he had come by my place at a quarter of three, which was an out and out lie.I stood for an hour waiting for him and at three fifteen gave up and came back to my apartment and rescheduled my appt for friday. so still hurt and cannot see mydoctor til friday oh well such is life. I dont know why that cab driver lied like that. live and learn I guess.
