Thanks for listening and posting words of encouragement.
I do feel much better today.
I guess with all that happened lately, it was kinda inevitable that I'd experience a mood-dip. But I'm ok now. -
Whoops, cruumy time for me to go to sleep and miss all of this.
Glad you're feeling a bit better at least, Rhonda! 
I've always thought that the loneliest position in a ship's crew is that of the navigator's. The captain's got his crew to run the ship with, and the engineering team pretty much work together to keep the ship running. The navigator, on the other hand, hold the sole responsibility of getting everybody there.
What you're feeling is to be expected for those who choose to go their own way. After all, everybody else is crowding up the well-trodden path, so you can't expect to find much company where you are. Then again, when you do bump into somebody in uncharted waters, he'll know exactly what you mean when you start b*tching about the difficulty of using a sextant.
Okay, crummy analogy - I haven't had my third cup of coffee yet.
I've always taken such quiet moments are the ideal time to regroup my resources and plan my next move. For the unsuspecting world out there, it's just the calm before the storm.
I'll write more when I've had more coffee. -

Especially for Rhonda and all the lonely souls out there during this festive holiday season...
NOTHING
There was nothing in the Garden last night,
and unless I'm losing my sight,
there was nothing again this morning.
It must have been there ALLLllllll night.
Its hard to see a Nothing,
or even where its been,
This was th longest Nothing I've ever ever seen.
I locked all the drink in the cupboard
so no Nothing could get to the gin
but by swonkle o'clock in the morning
something had got in!!
So I bolted the doors and windows
so nothing could escape.
Iin the dead of night I quicklycalled my sgforum mates
who came armed top to toe
with helmet and cape...
"We heard you had a break - in
and might have lost something of worth,
can you describer the intruder" they said
Well yes...its hard to explain, it was quite a pain
it lasted the whole night through,
but now that you are here its cool...
I guess it was just a big Nothing -
Wow, thanks for all the advice and encouragement. Can't wait to meet some of you before the BBQ even!
Ged, I always enjoy your philosophy! hehehe! And care bear, thanks for that nice poem. You have a gift! Can't thank all of you enough for riding out that teeny li'l storm with me. hehe! -
Guess u are feeling better now! happy to know that!!
