   Hello, my dears!

It feels like August was just a few days ago. T.T I am so sorry for being absent from TheO and MyO for so long (too many apologies, but I do feel bad)

Have you all been well? Do you remember 'Kittenlark'? ^^ I think of all of you often and you're in my prayers.

The recovery process took *far* *too* *long*. I am an impatient sort of person and it frustrated me a lot. But, at long last, I feel like the clouds are lifting (a huge milestone is that they finally removed the metal spacer from my mouth, so eating is a little easier) ^__^

Today is a good day. ^^ *this will seem random* In the grocery store with my Mom, we were standing at the checkout line. Just as the last few items were being rung up, an older man (maybe in his sixties?) came up and set his one item on the moving counter-thing. The lady cashier seemed to know him (not uncommon here. It's a small town)

Well, the remarkable thing was the cheerful way he asked her how she was. She responded with something like 'very, very well. How are you?' and he responded with "excellent" She started to tease him that he was trying to 'one-up' her. ~ To which he agreed and then said, "I have never had a bad day in my life."

I smiled when I heard him say it and he smiled back at me (while the cashier laughed) He went on to say to the cashier, "It's just that some days are better than others" And then they began discussing how something good happens every day. ^^ I thought that it was so sweet, and so good to hear someone talking like that. And, as we left the store, I kept thinking about all of you here at TheO. And how much I miss you.

And it suddenly seemed silly to me that I missed you when I could sign back on anytime I want ^^;;; I suppose I need to get back into the habit.

Ahh, this has been a very long-winded explanation, hasn't it? ^^; Anyway, I want to try to be around TheO and MyO a bit more now (things are actually calming down to a degree) Yay! ^___^

HOWEVER- (oh gosh, I want to make sure that this doesn't sound mean or angry) I don't want to overextend myself. I realize that I tend to do too much in many things and tire myself out. So- I'll be mostly trying to comment on a *few* works from various people. And, I'm thinking now that I just won't bother commenting much for people whom I never seem to hear back from ^^;

But, please don't think I'm avoiding you if you don't hear from me! (In the past I remember that sometimes I'd look at a person's post or their art and then forget to comment XP )

Okay, well, I have a lot of tabs open right now (full of various missed posts) I just thought I should probably post here on MyO first. ^^ It's been a while. I hope I'll do it more often now.

Thank you so much to everyone who has supported me through all these months (years now, too? Wow, hard to believe so much time has gone by since the beginning) You people are a major reason that there is some good in every day.

Take care and God Bless you.

Have a great day!
