PEACE LOVE HARMONY!(*!(_(!_! !*_)!*)!*)!*)!*)!*!)*!)!! HAPPY THANKSGIVING ALL!_!((!_
(yup, my home box has been bombed by too much mail, cruzio my local provider has a LIMIT and I reached it yesterday morning but I can't bear to delete emails! i am a cyber pack rat!!!)
I appreciate all comments on this thread including yours Derek- I didn't know my blocking was temporary when it happened but I am sure glad it was-
Turkey is in the oven!!! Pumpkin pie is DONE! We are having 3 pies-
Candied yams are done. Stuffing is done. Turkey is roasting. Gravy not begun!!! We are having COLE SLAW as our greens because fresh cole slaw is THE BEST*)! and the potatoes we'll deal with right before we eat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My husband helped chop chop CHOP this am bright & early, he did the onions and apples and celery-it was nice, all of us were in the kitchen, I had the baby, who every much wanted to help, in charge of Guarding the Cranberries from the Cats (that was her job, poor kid, she is going to grow up convinced cats madly lust after cranberries!!)(She sat on a stool with the cranberries in her lap convinced she was invaluable in helping- it was adorable*)!*)!!
We are having everything done ahead of time so we can skip out with the girls (Evan Kelly, 10, in full remission for 6+ years from Lyme & babs and Isadora Clementine, almost 3 now) and go see that Enchantment movie that just came out*)! And then come home and make the gravy and potatoes and eat!!!
It is a good day. I am glad we are all here.
Love to everyone, Lou & Michelle & Jenifer & BettyG especially!!! And howdy to people like Derek who I don't really know but I like your honesty very much- And Happy Thanksgving to alL*)!!!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING*)!*)!!************************* Sincerely, Sarah

*I love you Sarah!
Now, that said....I would delete this thread since it is too distressing to think that Sarah would b banned. Now that this is behind us.....can we get on being nice to each other????
Wishing all a very, very Happy Thanksgiving!!!!
Enjoy those grandkids, enjoy those get-togethers....
I miss my sis terribly. She died way too young so please....enjoy your loved ones!

I give credit to TerryK for the term "Guests" here. I believe she wrote a very good explanation of that back when Cave was banned.
I went looking for that explanation and it was not to be found.
Just giving credit where credit is due!!
Tracy is right about one thing on this board....
"chronic overreaction" seems to be a theme here sometimes!!!!
Betty...chill a bit!
Thanks, Lou!! I've really enjoyed knowing you over the years and thank you from the bottom of my heart for "saving my life" as well.
Without Lymenet I would have died of despair while trying to make it through treatment!
The support here has been wonderful. Please, everyone, focus on the POSITIVE. It's all around you....every day. You have to train yourself to LOOK FOR IT.
Lymenet friends!
Happy Thanksgiving!

Sarah, I am very sorry this happened to you - even temporarily. Truly, I am so happy that things got straightened out so that you could enjoy Thanksgiving today!
Sadly, there are 3 other members who were not so lucky. According to Lou B, apparently they violated LymeNet rules, but they don't know what they did and neither do we.
Lou B - would it be that much trouble to issue folks a brief warning first, so they have an opportunity to correct the problem?
And another problem I see happening with Newbies is that they come to LymeNet and see too many members being cynical or treating one another inappropriately..... and they think it's okay to behave the same way!!!
So, what are we teaching new people when we fail to be courteous to one another?
Forums on the Internet where people bash each other are a dime a dozen. That's the easy way to voice your opinion. It's a little harder to be civil to one another, but I think LymeNet - and its members and administrative staff - are worth it.

As the originator of this thread, I am happy to note that the Force has returned (Lou, that's YOU). Thanks.
Cave, that's also YOU.
Sarah, that's YOU, too, however briefly you may have been gone.
Maybe after all these travails we'll move forward in peace.
Further, as the originator of this thread, I wouldn't be a bit unhappy to see it banished to the hinterlands of "Off Topic" or even "Outta Here."
Lou, thanks for your help.
Jenifer, thanks for your help, even if we overwhelmed you from time to time.
Everyone else, thanks for sticking around and paying it forward, no matter your point of view. That's what we're here for.
Michelle

Hi Michelle,
Sorry that was actually an accident. I didn't mean to bring up the thread again. tracybillings just posted an antagonistic remark on one of my threads & I was trying to determine whether it was a pattern before the remaining 9 of tb's 159 posts got deleted.
I REALLY REALLY did not want this to get started again.
so sorry. Ali
