I've really not been present on the board the past few months, except for here and there, and one out-of-character incident I'd rather forget.  I mostly get to visit here while at work, because time is so scarce at home, even on the weekends, since I've been helping my daughter apply and travel to schools for interviews etc.  Things seem to be going well, but still in the process at the moment.  

I just want you all to know, I read the board when I can, even if I can't post at the time.  Wherever there is a request for prayer or vibes or good thoughts.. you've gotten them.  I don't always read my email or pm's right away, so I'm sorry if it takes a while.  I can always be reached by phone.

In particular, Ree - I think about you and your family a lot.  The good Lord will look out for you and your family, keep your faith, you have my prayers.

For the newbies and people just finding CH.com... I hope you continue to read and learn, even if you don't feel like posting.  If you get a chance, arrange to meet with someone you feel comfortable with, or make it to Louisville in January.  You won't regret doing it, there's nothing like the full realization in person of meeting another clusterhead  Even if you get into it with someone on the board, it tends to dissolve away the moment you meet in person, its happened often enough!

Jax and Blake, your grandbabies and photos are beautiful...you are really blessed and those children are lucky!

Marc, I love your photos, that's a talent; perhaps I'll get a chance to post some of my travel photos which I find interesting.  

Dennis, I hope Aidan is doing better, I couldn't begin to imagine what you're going through.

Well, here, gotta go again and I'm not even done, but Iwanted to put this post up so you don't think I'm indifferent... I'm not.. just been more involved with things at home, as it should be for now I think!

Hugs and Love,
Pepp

Funny Jimi!! You should be flattered, that just goes to show I was thinking about you.  I know where they are you smartypants 

Just to be clear the gathering is in St. Louis.  Glad you pointed that out Jimi, for anyone who plans to go... sheesh.
