Here's a shocker for you all...

[olde_fashioned]

...I'm actually alive! Ha ha ha. ;-P

Just popping in to say...

1. Thank you ever so much to all of you who left me kind comments on my hiatus entry, sent me thoughtful PM's, or sweet emails. I read every single one of them even though I haven't had time to reply yet, and they all mean so much to me! So, thank you all for thinking of me. :-D

2. Thank you to winterlillies and greeneyedmissy for the virtual cookies! *would eat them if they were real*

3. Thank you to all of my co-mods who have so graciously filled in for me at all those various icontests that I've been sadly neglecting these past few months.

4. While my circumstances at present still disallow my being online as much as previously (hopefully this won't last forever), I do still have some unposted graphics on my computer, and sometimes I can squeak out a little here and there. What I would like to know from all of my readers is, would you be interested in my "coming out of hiding" every now and then to post something sporadically?

5. And in case I don't get another chance, MERRY CHRISTMAS to everyone, and hugs to all on my flist! ;-D

Well, later for now! *waves*

Oh yes! Please come out of hiding when you can! I've missed your entries.

[sweetmustard.livejournal.com]

Would love to see you post more, even if somewhat sporadically :) ♥

[greeneyedmissy.livejournal.com]

So wonderful to hear from you! I hope you can pop in more often to let us know how things are going, I sure miss you!

Have a very Merry Christmas!

A very Merry and Blessed Christmas to you! Good to see you back again and I liked the festive touch to your banner:)

[ceallaighgirl.livejournal.com]

Happy Christmas to you! (I hope to see you online more sometime soon. I miss you!)

Hi Lauren!

I'm so glad you're back and I hope that you'll be able to get online as much as you'd like soon!

Please do come out of hiding! I've missed you so much!

Merry Christmas!♥

Hello visions! *giggles*

Thank you! And I'm glad you like my ribbon -- I was afraid it was cheating to use it again since I made it last year.

Merry Christmas to you too dear!!!!! (And writing that just gave me this wicked idea for an icon....MWAHAHAHAAAAA!!!)

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Thank you! You are very kind. :-)

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Aww, thank you. :-D

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Wonderful! Because sporadic it would be, LOL. ;-P

Thanks for the comment!

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Awww, thank you Melissa! You are really very sweet. :-D I have considered doing an Flist update, that'd be looooong and boring and depressing and emo and a whole slew of other things I'm not sure about burdening everyone with. :-P

And the same to you! I'm sure you're enjoying the non-hot weather as much as I am, ha ha ha. That is presuming it's below 50 there.......

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Thank you, and the same to you!

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Awww..*iz touched*

Thank you Deborah! I've missed our "exchanges" and commenting on your blog as well, though I'm still reading in a creepy stalkerish lurker way....hahahah!

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Hello back! :-D Thank you for your kind words and encouragement to post more often! And Merry Christmas right back to you. ;-)

[greeneyedmissy.livejournal.com]

Our weather is nuts right now. We're expected to go up to the 70's early this week, then get a cold front and drop into the 40's by Christmas. It's been doing that for weeks now, no wonder everyone is sick!

An update post would be great, but only what you feel comfortable talking about. It's your RL situation, so as long as we know you're still around and doing okay, really we (being bold to speak for others as well as myself) don't need to pry into anything else. :)

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

It keeps doing that here as well! It's kinda freaky, LOL.

Thank you...and I don't think anyone would ever accuse your guys of prying. ;-) A big part of me would really like to, and aside from any hesitance on my part there is the whole "time" issue -- explaining everything from then to now is going to take some doing, and I get precious little computer time now as it is! ;-P

[epea-pteroenta.livejournal.com]

Oooh definitely do pop back when you're able to- I've missed your posts!

Happy Christmas!

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Aww, thank you! And have a very happy Christmas yourself! :-D

[visionsbeyond.livejournal.com]

Now when you say 'wicked idea' for an icon in can probably only mean one fandom.... lol but I can`t be sure ;D

[meri-weather.livejournal.com]

Hello, my dear. I agree with the others. It is so nice to see a post from you! You have been missed. However, we understand that life can get crazy and very demanding at times thus preventing us from doing the things that we enjoy. I hope that whatever is pressing on you will be alleviated sooner than later.

Have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! :D

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

ROTFLOL let's see if you know me well enough to venture a guess!!!!!!! ;-P

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

:-) Thank you. You are very kind!

I hope you are doing well...
