Dear Friends,

Just posting a note to say that I have not intentionally abandoned the site and the great people here. Seems like I just can't handle a lot on my plate right now.. I think due to accumulated stress. Hoping after the holidays I'll be able to get it together and be more "normal".

I know some have been concerned and I'm sorry but I am OK.

I was really sorry to hear about Sally and Kait's continuing problems.

Please forgive me for not posting for so long and I might not get back until after the holidays.

Love, Shirley

Hi Shirley,

We appreciate the update, and we certainly understand how the holidays can be very depressing, after the loss of a loved one. You're a strong individual, but please don't hesitate to seek help from a professional, if the stress seems to be too much to bear.

We're always here for you, and remember, we love you, dear friend, and we'll be waiting for your return.

Please take good care of yourself,
Tex

Shirley,

I hope you will just pop every once in a while, even if you don't post. I have been in your shoes and found the juggling was almost too much. Now, looking back, I realized that I was never given more than I could handle at the time. Although it might not feel like it, please know that is true of you also.

If there is any way I can help, please let me know.

Jan

Morning Shirley,

I think we all understand the place you are right now and I have to say, the holidays can be a really depressing time. They are for me since I have only 1 left in my family and luckily there are now grandchildren on Frank's side but they are so far away in England.

Take it one day at a time and remember all of us are here for the support and loe you need.

Love, Maggie
