Well it was funny, Bonnie, because the only reason I went somewhere other than here was the fact that I broke down and bought a new laptop.....in the process of saving off all my files from the old one and getting ready to wipe it out, I found the old link to the other 'place'. So I jumped over.....thought it seemed a little 'woe is me' (and don't get me wrong, I know that I would would fully support anyone here who was going through something tough in life) and so I read one message that was an apology and referred to some people going back and forth. Took me a while, but sure enough....I found the messages!
And just as you said....hmmmm where's the high and mighty to delete it ALL and wipe it off the list so no one could see it.....where was the holier than thou attitude with it all?
It was funny because it took me right back to the fact that I found this other place years back, started chatting with others about their BQs, expanding that in a friendly manner to talk about whatever....and the place was booming....and then as if totally on purpose....the goddess of the place decided that there was a problem that needed eradicating....and oddly enough, the problem was ONLY me!
Sad though, because here another joke was made, someone took it of a way too personal attack.....funny, only once was I personally attacked and it was by that goddess....nothing else was ever personal....so never took it that way.....but over here it was taken that way by someone else....and thus they ended up leaving us and staying over on the other place.....sucks too because I do miss that person always chatting with everyone, the friendly welcoming manner.....oh well.
And yes, you got it Cindy....it was like you were personally attacked too.....and if I am not mistaken it seemed more like it was done because you backed someone else (me!) hahahahaha :)

I guess I can say that it was good this happened....the fiasco somewhere else AND me getting a new laptop.....gave us a reason to laugh about that mess and also got us posting again over here. I've been majorly slow on posting here because of school and animals at all myself...and the fact that I opened up a new Yahoo Group.

Now with this new machine, I hope I can get back to changing out the background more often and posting more often. We need to bring everyone out of their winter hibernation and get the ball rolling again.
