Merry,
 
49 people looked at this and not one person wished the same to me, so I removed my message.

I'm so surprised and disappointed.

Not one person said anything.

Sad.

The 49 people may very well not have been members. If you're posting late on Christmas Day then I suspect most people were passed out in front of the telly full of turkey!

Ok, I guess I'm being a bit oversensitive, so I'll just say again...

Merry Christmas (belated at this point) and I hope everyone had a nice day. I guess it was a bit late in the day when I originally posted, but still Christmas here in the US.

I spent the day mostly missing loved ones, so I came here kind of hoping for a little cheering up.

Of course they can! At this precise moment there are 51 members on the forum, and 972 non members on the forum.

Tbh, I've no idea why you're upset, particularly given it was almost midnight on Xmas Day and you edited it to remove your message after only two hours?!? Very few members would have even seen your post, I certainly wasn't online then........I was sleeping after a lovely day with my family!

I saw it. But since the thread title was "Merry," it wasn't a thread I wanted to access.

Happy Boxing Day! Is was greeted with that today on a walk on cape cod, MA. It didn't strike me as odd until a few minutes later!

Buggex christmas, but happy holiday, hope you enjoy a festive day, but make sure every day is as enjoyable in its own way, or why bother...

Hi, you have been missed. Any updates? I was so busy cooking, I didn't know which end was up. I'm not as good as multitasking as I used to be. My daughter had two white Scottish terriers running around under my feet - one is a puppy, and one has cancer. I got a new I-pad for Xmas, as my other one was on the go slow. It's snowing in Bristol, UK, where I have family. Some of my family went to SA for the winter. They like heat.

It's my wedding anniversary today - I won't say which one.

Happy New Year. I have a bottle of Prosecco chilling. Cold here in the southeast US.

Merry! :starsmile::starsmile::starsmile:

Merry Christmas (belated),

IF its any consolation... I would have replied but wasn't on at Christmas day (I was busy offline with Christmas gifts, Christmas cooking and Christmas wine.etc). Hope Santa was good to you!

Hi Mallory!

Thank you for the kind words. As far as updates go, I've been going through a lot of things with my knees for months now. Ugh. Lots of pain, swelling, cortisone injections that made me literally scream with pain. Things are improving somewhat. This year has been an Annus Horribilis in many ways.


I'm planning to move over there in the Spring as soon as I have all my ducks in a row.

Happy wedding anniversary!

Happy New Year to you and yours:starsmile:.
