This is wonderful news. More questions though. I hope she contacts you again.

I always feel as though I’m the girl who’s always late to the ball…
It’s nice to hear from you @gatekeeper3. I enjoy the way you make the words dance for us on the screen. I agree with @nking, you are very eloquent. It’s late and I’m fading fast. These days the need for sleep seems to overpower my desire to stay up late. To answer your question what matters most to me…
A year ago my answer would be very different because I was in a different place emotionally. I would have given you a fake answer, the one that was expected of me, a hypocritical one. What matters most to me varies from the tangible to the not so tangible. Books and Music are important to me. They are lifelines when I feel myself descending into that damn dark abyss. My friends and family. My children. But, I have found freedom in being able to express my true self…for too long I was crucified for the things I like or enjoy. This new found freedom is priceless and I never want to give it back. I no longer have to be the girl who hides behind a June Cleaver mask.
I hope you are in a sweet slumber and enjoyed your mac & cheese. I look forward to hearing more from you.

You have more than enough volunteers but I’ll throw my hat into the ring as well. I want to be more involved but haven’t quite found where my place is yet.

Iris…
I believe we may have received similar messages. Yesterday, I got an email asking if I disappeared. Besides being locked out of my account for a bit (I believe it was a glitch), life sort of got in the way these past few days. I also lurk a lot. I read and try to see I have anything to offer but damn those puzzles sometimes!!! For a girl with a college degree, I often feel out of my league here. You’ve hit the hammer on the nail with your observations. Bravo! Hopefully our paths will cross one day at a future event.

Oh my…
Locked out of the site for over a day and not knowing why and now I’m needing popcorn (maybe a few marshmallows as well) to catch up on everything.

Just catching up myself after being three days on a pool deck non-stop for my son’s polo tournament. Goodness, you can’t log on for even a day and you miss something.. three days makes you feel like you’ve been out of touch for months.
@addisonborn I do understand what you’re saying and hope that you haven’t decided to walk away. It’s just the way the cookie crumbles that others are going to get a bit more attention than some of us. I was shocked I got an invite to the mixer because, while sharing FB & commenting on FB posts, I hadn’t been that active even on the forums. After the mixer, I was drawn in even further and have become more vocal everywhere. Rather than a spectator or a lurker, I’m an actual participant. I’m so grateful to have been included in that because I met a lot of awesome people… you included!
We have no idea where this will all lead us. But, right now, IMO, it’s all about planting the seeds. The best way for that to be done is through social media outlets. It’s being done in a way that is absolutely clever and, while it involves some more than others, we are all pulled in through the shared stories, through community. I love it.

@irishalliwell120 So much of what you’ve said resonates with me, especially what you’ve said about learning to be okay with yourself around others. This has been something I’ve been struggling with as well. Thank you for sharing that with me even if it was a it Redbull induced. 😉 I believe part of our _path is learning from one another, already Tension has given me so much. Sending you hugs. x

@lenize I did refresh. I even tried it in both Safari and Chrome after closing both browsers and then going back to the site. I usually keep the forum open all the time in Chrome but I had accidentally logged out. It kind of freaked me out and I messaged @111error to see if he could help me. But, then, for some reason I was able to log back in.

I was locked out of my account for a few days, maybe almost 48 hours. But, I think it was a glitch. I don’t know.. we’ve heard that nothing is random or coincidence. :/ My issue was that I was unable to complete the captcha. I would answer the question (and the last time I checked I am able to answer simple math addition and subtraction problems) but when I hit submit I would get the message (paraphrasing) “Please complete the captcha.” It was driving me crazy. After a few attempts, I would be “locked” out. I would get a message… (again paraphrasing) “You are locked out of your account. Try again at another time.”

Thank goodness I’m not the only one. I just often feel as though I miss things and am struggling to find all the breadcrumbs and pieces. What you’ve said has really struck a cord with me in return. Sometimes, by the time I’ve entered a conversation, I feel as though it’s gone dead. What can I add now that hasn’t been said. I’m home most of the day for now too. I can’t imagine staying caught up while only being able to check on periodically.
