Wow! Real life is really taking over my computer time these days. As
of Tuesday, our little family will include Crash, Joe, his brother,
and me. Cleaning, re-organizing, remodeling ... it's taking up a lot
of time. PLUS ... we have other humans to talk to now, so I'm not
entirely dependent upon RFC for my social outlet anymore.

The other thing, a couple of you know, is that I've been suicidally
depressed for nearly two months now. It takes just too darned much
energy to keep up with the posts and to make upbeat-sounding posts.
I'm just too tired. Andy will take over my THWACKING responsibilities
while I'm gone.

Things will settle down in awhile, and the depression will improve,
and you'll be stuck with me once more. Never fear. You're my family,
and I'll come back to you. I always do.

Anyone who wants to keep in touch, feel free. This is not a munged
address.

I'll stick around for a couple days to finish out this thread, but I
need this break.

Thanks,
Carol
