I take breaks.....some self-imposed and sometimes it's my darned computer. I believe in being alone.....as I'm single, it's easy....but I do need time to re-charge and re-energize. And if you do go away, I'll be here when you come back. As will everyone else. This is a very stable environment and I feel a very strong connection to it. I think about my friends here when I'm offline. I'll wonder what ZH is doing and if GG is at work.......those kinds of comforting thoughts. I know that they are there for me and I can PM them for a quick fix.... My daughter used to give me a hard time over Psych C...but she has come to realize that I get real support here and she respects the fact that I need this group of people..So, I want you to always feel you have a home here....xoxo pat
