I miss people who dropped off or maybe they're just lurking here. I did read a post by someone who said he began to have anxiety about posting here, about writing the wrong thing, or being taken the wrong way by someone.

Loved the Old Crew shout out Sea! I sometimes think there same thing. Have I stayed too long at this party? But, no way. It's just so good here, sharing, thinking, hangin' w/ the great GS and with you, Mary and the others. OMG. Too good. I'm not worthy.....
hahahaha! No worries! I always have a zillion errors because i hit post without re-reading. I think some of the old crew just needed a break maybe. From commenting. I get it. Sometimes it's more than enough to just read George's posts. For me, I can't really process ANYTHING without writing about it. So if i only read what George says, it goes right through my head--poof! No retention. But if I enter into the conversation, i retain it more easily. And by commenting, I can turn it over in my head and really ponder, which I love. But, yeah. Watching the regulars drop off can make me wonder what I'm still doing here--like maybe i should step aside and that would encourage others to comment...? I know that sometimes i basically "take over" around here--maybe that' s not always such a good thing. Not asking for any reply on my thoughts. I'm just processing. Like always. (And I do miss the old crew--they were so fun to interact with. Without meeting in person, I often feel/felt that i knew them in some way, you know? Old crew, if you're reading this: i miss you!)
Yeah, Old Crew! I don't think of your posts as "take over" because anyone can post anything, of any length, and we can chose to read or skim or not read at all.
A while back (Old Crew days) someone apologized for commenting, saying something like "English is my second language." I loved that person's post. Plus, they speak more than one language, so even better.
so many good people around here. I feel bad that anyone would think they need to apologize or worry about what they post. This is the Love Club! (Mostly.)

Now I have anxiety about my typos.

It is OMG too good. Just read "The Jilting of Granny..." and came back here to see your comment.

IтАЩm new to reading the comments. I am behind on everything. I hope you continue to comment, Mary G.
Thank you, Mary Ann.
Any sign of Manami around here these days? I hope she is still lurking, if not posting.
And I feel the same about feeling like I knew the Old Crew without actually knowing you guys. I have missed the camaraderie!
She comes and goes. I miss her!
