I've had a whirlwind summer! So much fun and I'm ACTUALLY happyyyyyyy! I hope you all are too! My daughter is turning SIXTEEN this month! AHHHHHHH! I'm getting long in the toofs!

I swear I've been grinning ear to ear lately (that just CAN'T be healthy) not to mention anatomically challenging!
!I send big ((((((HUGS)))))) to all who want and need one and fond smile to all!
And if anyone thinks I forgot YOU...I didn't...just so ya know.

Smiles,
MEEEEEEEEEE
Now back to your regular progamming

P.S.
The kindness you have been blessed to give
Will come back to you in kind
And the forgiveness you have within your soul
Will be reflected in your mind
And all you do comes back to you
So be thoughtful and aware
After all, there's nothing worse than facing
The same people that you scare.

Oh man...I forgot how great this edit thing is...kinda sad I needed to use it. hehe

*She waves at David* Hey you! 
And elvee, my baby bro...*Big Smooches and hugs*

da_zman20...good to see you too! Hello back sweetie pieeeeeee!

Ah Bear Smith...ya wanna know something ironic? Sure ya do...
Well...quite a long while back you wrote me one of the sweetest emails ever...and when I spent time to write you back...the letter spit back at me!
Crazy eh? And I wasn't sure if you had some kind of spam filter set or if you just gave me a fake addy to reply to...anyway... I'm not trying to gain your sympathy or your respect...just a bit of understanding from a humane/human perspective is all. Anyway, this thread was just to "touch base" and see how everyone was really. Is that so awrful?

Life deals ya a strange deck of cards...they only start to look right when you're holding the last one. Hit me

Have a groovy Saturday!

For some reason math comes into play even here...
There can be ten to the power and only one to shake the system.

I call a truce. What I was trying to say, is that I know you need a break from it all, as in other skinners in WinCustomize. It is that when you take a break, you leave, and take your work, and just disappear. It's great for you to take time off, and get your head clear. I just wish you would leave your skins so the folks at W/C can still enjoy them. That way they know you will return, and people will not have to worry about you. You are a talented skinner, and I do enjoy your work. Sorry if I offended you, that was not my intention.

But I don't think Bear is obsessed. Just Vocal about the work he likes and the Authors who create them.
He's always there on the comments. And I don't believe it was Bear's intention to offend either. I can vouch for the fact that when Shmoo took another break, Bear wrote to me as well as RadialFX and Ph00ey. He seemed sincerely concerned. Just thought I'd add my 2 cents coz they are both great people from what I know and I'd hate to see ... well, I hate to see "This" happen. -sigh- ciao for now

I do not take the responses to me personal, because Radial, You, Shmoopy, and I do support each other, and have, and will always be a team. Thanks my friend, Its definately appreciated.

Bear S (I was tempted to say BS…just teasing!)... I most certainly understand your rant...I've been called out by people quite a few times because I packed my bags and left and I hold no ill will against you for doing that either and I appreciate you caring about me and I apologize if my leaving sometimes upsets people but at one time I got myself so overly involved here that I couldn't even think of doing anything ELSE online...it became an obsession for me...I found myself addicted to an extended ‘pseudo’ family (albeit dysfunctional as is the typical ‘norm’ anyhow).
! And then, on top of it all...when I did care too deeply about being involved here I got reprimanded or cajoled for being overactive in the threads or if I got hurt by people I was told, "Hey, find another hobby then!" and that made me realize I DID have to find another hobby..." Which is why skinning is really the last thing on my mind any more…it was a fun challenge and I enjoyed trying my hardest but I’ve moved on is all. But that didn’t mean I stopped caring about people here…And, let's be honest...I looked to see what skins you've made Mr. Smith (
) and none were there (but that doesn’t mean you’re not alive and kicking right)? I am sometimes in a conundrum of sorts...if I leave and don't visit here for a long period I wonder if people will think I don't care when they leave remarks on my works and I’m not around to reply to them...and Bear...you've probably seen all my works...so it's not as if you didn't have the chance to get them all already so whom are you complaining for? People who never knew me and never will, surely won't miss out on something they don't know ever existed. -And if you conjecture that my absence of self and works means I'm somehow gone then I must ask you why you only submit comments on works rather than create works too? Look at me…I’ve done both…as well as a lot of prominent folks here…and we do so to give kudos to good, hard work in the field of computer graphics and such…sometimes I think I’d rather just be on the sidelines and root for my favorites and try to help newbies and up and comers because being in the spotlight is such a pressurized thing. Do I accept your truce? Of course I do! Some of my best friends were once my bullies…that is how I work…I prefer kindness and empathy and compassion to cruelty and ignorance and jabbing. It does the world good to forgive and let go of hurt.
Chinacat...you are still a doll. Bear Smith is harmless...don't worry.
