Yes, I am back on Staff :happydance: - yahoo, yippppeee :cheer: and all that good stuff. My "retirement" was officially one week. Three days into it, I realized I was quite "homesick" :badmood: . As an afterthought to the day I submitted my resignation I knew I should have taken vacation time or a leave of absence from my duties in order to regroup.

 

We learn (or hope to) from our mistakes. Fortunately I did learn and am now a teeny bit wiser than before.

 

Love and (((hugs))) to all who contacted me and helped to "wise" me up. Even Kristi realized (once and for all I hope) how much Stroke Network means to me. So far she's not fighting me as much for computer time unless she has a project to work on for school. She is to be purchasing a lap top from a friend of hers in the near future so that will help as well. I'll have the desk top computer to myself. On occasion, I'll be permitted to use her lap top :rolleyes: .

 

I made the decision, while on retirement, to have cable installed on the television in my bedroom. Part of the decision was based on the digital conversion policy going in affect here in the U.S. Cable to be installed today. Another plus will be not having to "bicker" over what television program to watch as we'll have an added cable box upstairs as well.

 

Time will tell as to whom the furbabies will follow. I usually do not watch much television; it seems though, when I do have the desire, Kristi is already watching something and grumbles result.

 

Peace and Harmony perhaps? :harp: I'll take every little bit I can get with a teen in da house :cloud9:

I'm happy you are back from a one week (vacation), you know too many members to retire.

 

Are you still using dial up for your computer? If so you should consider going with the same cable company that you are with for the TVs

 

I got a package deal with Time Warner Cable, TV, Internet and Telephone with unlimited calling to Canada and no long distance ever. I got one bill!

Donna,

I am happy you are back. Things happen for a reason and I hope you were able to enjoy your retirement time a bit.

 

You are a wise and resourceful individual and contribute so much to this site.
