I have been thinking of you!!!! but I have been in my own Hell and not reaching out like I should.

Mom moved to Wisconsin, and I have seen more ER's and Doctors than ever. I got her settled and was home for 24 hours when she decided to have a stroke on me......... Back to Hospitals and ER's I went. And am still going.

My health is going too and my writing skills......

I don't think you have to be always happy in your posts; for me, your posts always show many sides to you. THAT is what made/make your posts yours.

Each day, we find happiness where we can. It's how we survive with depression in a cold world. We learned to make others laugh because we know how powerful laughter can be to those who need it. It is noble to make others laugh and giggle. Plus it gives our brains a vacation to other ways of thinking, if only for a little while.

Never sell yourself short in how much you are needed here on Hive and how many you have helped and not even known it.

You are a unique person, but in a good way.

I can not imagine Hive without you here, popping in and out with your words and stunning art that I can stare at for hours.

HUGE HUGS!!! And CONGRATS!!!! I have now known you longer than most people in my life. For that, you get a HUGE gold star, too :D

I have missed you, my friend.
