I've been convinced to stay...
Love you all. :grouphug:

Well, the vast majority of you, but not everybody can be loved by all and it's high time I grew a thicker skin anyway. :7

4. Me too -- so many nice messages and just a couple of people
who would like me dead. Out of 98,000, that's a pretty good score!

Hello, HypnoToad and welcome back.

In peace,

Radio_Lady

13. Thanks, Seattle Girl... and we two survived the BIG STORM last
week. Lots of tree damage, and we lost our electricity for 1 1/2 hours, but that's it.

76. Very Good
Look, thick skin is something we all need to work on. It's part of the human experience --- Taking a break now and then when you feel your skin getting thin is okay, but there's really nowhere to run to, this board is a good cross-section of how human beings are in real life.

I think :dilemma:
