I miss those days of community when this was a very active forum.

What happened? Where did everyone go?

There’s a lot more action in the check in thread these days. I’m an old timer and yes it has slowed down a bit

Things changed when DocJohn sold the PC site. We are lucky that he is keeping the forum going for everyone.

There’s many people I miss.

Hop on the check in thread it’s like old times.

Much has happened to me. I am in rehab hospital after the third accident on my e-scooter. The first accident required no surgery. One required shoulder surgery. Another accident required hip surgery, which is the reason I am now in rehab. It will be six weeks before I can walk. In the middle of all of this, my daughter told me she is no longer helping me. She claims I am treating her as my servant. All I was doing was telling her what I needed from home. This required a little work on her part. So with the help from my neighbors, I am getting along.

Yes, it is nice to see some old timers are still here. 😊

Sorry Tuscan, feel better soon. 6 weeks isn’t too long but what a time of the year. Take care.

Sorry. I just haven't been around. I do still pop in though. You're right, it's just not as active here these days. So I tend to find myself browsing Facebook groups more.

Also, I use Tapatalk and found it obnoxious to get on here once they started with the ads.

I am sorry to hear of your news.
I hope that you are mending yourself back to good health.
This must be a frustrating time for you.try to eat more protein than normal take a multi vitamin and drink plenty of good water.try to eat more calories. these things you have control of and are needed for wound healing.
Bizi, you sure have had a rough time.....

I use Black Smart (color theme). There are zero ads and the color is much easier on my eyes.

Sorry I haven’t been on for awhile. I’ve had a lot of changes in my life in the past six months but I remained stable throughout. Now I’m dealing with my customary late fall depression but that’s normal for me. My light box is somewhere in my storage unit, God only knows where it is. Oh well, that’s how the cookie crumbles!

Do you find the light box effective? I get depressed every winter.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
