THANK you SO, so much for your heartfelt LOVE❤️ and concern!💝💝 Signing on this afternoon and reading such kind, uplifting words of support hugged my heart!🥰 Emoticons; although useful, do not always convey exactly how we are feeling!🤗

Life has certainly dealt me a hand I would rather NOT be playing presently! As some of you have noted, I am suffering with cognitive and other medical issues (especially memory and comprehension) that have become increasingly worse, and are impacting my day to day life functions; chat being one of them!! As much as I miss it, there are days when I have almost ZERO energy with confusion, and days when I can go and go like the Energizer bunny!😞

Much is said of my chat style during my absences by several posters, that is quite flattering and humorous!😂 Reading those opinions made my day!😁 I have mentioned previously that I have always been a gifted writer, and simply choose to express myself with flair at times, although it has become MUCH more of a challenge! It is a marker by which I gauge myself, and the reason I can no longer chat as often as I once did! There are days when I cannot compose a single post that does not require a GREAT deal of effort or am just unable to.😔This post has taken upwards of two and a half hours for some context!

I have voiced my strong opposition to using AI on SEVERAL previous occasions and that has NOT changed! I am just too afraid of it because of the unknowns!🤔The fearmongering media has certainly not been helping lately!

We do NOT know what other posters are going through at any given moment in their personal lives!❤️ Some are enduring unthinkable adversity! I can certainly throw my hat into that unwelcome basket of uncertainty as well! We should lift each other up; NOT tear each other down! I will NEVER, ever choose to be anything but POSITIVE and KIND here for that reason! There simply is NO REASON not to be!!✨✨

~~~All we need is LOVE💖

@SandySparkles

All the best to you and it's understandable why you can only post periodically. You're a brave buckaroo!

@SandySparkles. It's so good to see you up and running again. Today must be an Entergizer Day!

You're right, we never know what someone else might be going through. So if a post is out of character. Perhaps no reaction is the best response.

Come back and keep us up to date, if and when you can. It's probably good mental exercise.

welcome back! Glad this is a day you feel a little better. Life certainly throws us days, hours .....times we have to put on knee high boots and wade through the crud! But, even at that ,there are days when it's too much trouble to put on the boots, and move. lol, lol! Standing in one place and not thinking too loud, can be a good thing too. Good to hear from you

peace,
