Dear randyg:

You wrote: “lets acknowledge that this forum is like a journal, with the intent of being able to write honest, yet positive thoughts with the possibility someone, be it yourself or others just might respond when they can, if that’s ok?”- do post anytime you would like. I will reply to you every time I am at the computer and see that you posted. I have no expectations regarding how often you post, or that you post every day. Whenever you post, if you post, is okay with me. You can consider this a journal for you. If another member replies here to you again, then you can address them, then address me in another note, and so forth.

“Honesty and sincerity and caring”- is what I intend to extend to you.

No need to limit your request for my time here. I am responsible to how I spend my time, and interacting with you is valuable. If I am not at the computer, I will obviously not respond. If I am at the computer and there are many threads, I may answer a few the day after, or answer with a short note.

If you don’t understand something I wrote, do ask that I explain. I will do the same. I did not understand the last line you wrote: “in order to be able to ‘mingle’ I feel I need a bigger tool box!…..how that?”-

Can you explain: mingle with people of the three groups you mentioned? People here on the website.. what tool box are you referring to?

(Will be back to the computer in about twelve hours, good night)
