thanks Paul! Well an amazing thing happened this morning - at maybe 11am or so: my shadow ban was LIFTED. It was a bit bizarre - it was like an hour after the whole FBI thing came out. I am not sure it was related to that - I did ping some people on the Twitter board last night and ask for help lifting the ban, and perhaps one of them heard me. Who knows. But I had some 30,000 views on Twitter today! That didn’t translate into that kind of web traffic (a lot less in fact) - but it was all good. Still really grateful for the FR traffic as the folks here are a particularly loyal bunch. This site has gotten such a bad rap in recent years, and it’s the few bad apples and even posers who aren’t who they pretend - who mess it up for all of the God fearing, kind folks.
You know I remember being on here one night like 12 years ago, when I was still a single girl. A woman posted that she just lost her mom or dad - and had nobody else to tell. Boy I sat there weeping for her, but also praying for her! And in helping her just a bit, I certainly helped myself. That is FR. And so thanks Paul - you and the many others who’ve been so kind to me this week remind me why I’ve always had a soft spot for FR, even though I disappear for a while when I get busy or don’t want to think about current events :)
God Bless and good night!
