Not gone just working through some things

11-07-2008, 10:06 PM

Well I have had about 20 pms of people asking me where I was and if everything is ok. So I thought it would be worth making a post, don't really know what to say but I will ramble and see what comes out.

As some of you already know I was dealing with some health issues a while back but that is all good, my lungs are strong and there are no residual effects.

My mental state is what has had a bit of a push of late, I think it is just the pressures of life and kids and job changes my wife going for partnership the economy is in the shitter etc etc. Life happens, sometimes you deal with it, sometimes it deals with you. In the last little while, much to my chagrin it was dealing with me. So I took a little downtime and got things back under control.

Thanks to all my brother and sisters here who were concerned, I am all good. A little busier than I was before so my posting might be a little lessened but I am a lifer in the asylum, I am always reading if not always responding.

I will try to get caught up.

if you ever feel the need to talk you can count on me, and on many other friends you made on CS and in the Asylum.

GWN · 11-08-2008, 08:38 AM

Good news, Shawn. I think of this place as a little bit a therapy (which kinda fits, given the name). Let's me shut my brain off for awhile and not think about work, bills, etc.

Thanks for the update. Hope you feel better soon Hairball and get back into full Silverfox mode!

Buy cigars, it will make you feel better.

Nice to have you posting.
