These are my thoughts and opinions only...I'm just frustrated. Lately been feeling especially frustrated in part due to holidays, half due to family conflicts. I've gotten lots of support here and I am grateful for the thoughtful replies.

I do wish that those who do respond think carefully about what they are saying when they reply. I've had a couple of threads that I started lately that the answers are rather dismissive. For people like me that is challenging and not helpful. Also a dismissive answer tends to end the thread immediately. Possibly it is just my overly sensitive mindset but the ending to the threads is real.

Thanks in advance for your thoughts...FLG
