It's good to hear you're in an area away from the fire and earthquake zones. ... We have "experts" "from away" moving here too, outnumbering and out voicing the locals who were brought up to be wise stewards of the land. It's one of the downsides of living in a beautiful area where real estate prices are not as crazy as they are in the cities I guess. ... Praying that your health to improves, and the pain eases, *Hugs*!

Ohai! Sorry for the delay answering, but my old computer needed some serious tinkering to get back online (still running Windows 8.1 - working to switching it to Linux - and I know nothing about the inner workings of computers, so it is an ongoing adventure (many bad words have been flung about...) --- I agree, when Sylvia passed it was like all the lights went out, she was in so many ways the Heart of Cheezland, and so many "old gourds" drifted away then. --- I am so glad you are stopping by again, perhaps more of the "old timers" will drift back! It may be different here now, and kinda lonely, but it's still a good neighbourhood to visit! --- Hope this finds you safe and healing - I always worry about you when fire season kicks in (is it even a "season" out there anymore? It seems to be all year round now...) Be well, stay safe, know that you are loved, you're important to us!

Cheezland is a great place to visit to escape RL for a while - even if it does feel so different here now... Our best and brightest are no longer with us (kinda like RL). I can relate, I'm in my seventies and am completely alone, I made the mistake of moving to a different part of the country after I retired - BIG mistake! I wish I had some wise words that would offer some comfort to you, but I'm not wise... Listening to the morning birdsong helps me, no matter what is happening, I am lucky to have a window to gaze out of, to see the trees sway in the breeze with the squirrels doing their acrobatics to get to the bird feeders. Every night is a painful struggle, but every morning is a beautiful gift (except when my foolish neighbor has put food waste out in the rubbish bin and the bears and raccoons have spread it all over the lawn... ) Hope to see you here more too - a wise friend once told me LOLing is good for the soul... (and you are the best storyteller!) You and Betskand created some great sagas! Hugz an Bonks!

Just read your other messages - oh my gosh, that sounds like such a frightening and painful affliction, thank God you have improved enough to walk a bit - Warm hugs, much love, more prayers...

oops... that got posted before I was finished typing! - ...was trying to say something about how the influence of the Old Gourds creative work is still everywhere here, your generous spirit and great stories are still here for the New Cheezpeeps to appreciate. --- It sounds like you have been having some hard times? I hope you have loving friends nearby to be of help? You are in my prayers old friend, you made this a very warm and friendly place to visit, perhaps some of that warmth can come back to you now. - Growing older is definitely challenging, and rather a lonely road to walk...

It's wonderful hearing from you! I agree Cheezland is not the same at all, but solitude was getting to me, so I wandered back. I miss seeing you and the other "old gourds" here very much, there are only a few left that stop by regularly. I spend most of my time here "visiting" old friends' archives - there are some brilliant lolz and storylines in those archives! It's interesting to see how some of their work - Are you still in California?

To me at least, it seems most of my peeps left with Ben and Emily Huh. Things are different now.

Of course a year isn't bad, because we are friends forever on Cheezburger.. at least from MY end.. many peeps have either quit or even died unfortunately (sad and miss them), but I'm here for life, my dear friend! I'm sorry to read you had a rough time. I had that Covid crap, but other things from the cancer left me disabled. I'm okay for now, I suppose, but determined to move onward :) So, I'm enjoying my painting whenever I can! Feel free to speak at me ANY time! I'm very easy going and understanding. You are in a safe space with my listening ear. Everyone has some sort of struggles.

ay caramba, "Who'll stop the rain?" Yes, I was referring to the wreck, and I've never heard of CIDP, had to look it up. Here's a purrayer for that prognosis to turn right around. All pretty much okay over here, hope you'll be able to say the same in time. *** ([copy back because I delete my messages] By AnOldCowhand on Jul 3, 2022 at 1:24 PM * Ohai! Umm, not sure what the state of my health was, the last you heard. I had fairly well recovered from the wreck, but 2½ years ago I was diagnosed with CIDP. Was completely paralyzed for 6 months. I can walk again, with braces and either a cane or a walker, but I have not regained full use of my hands, and the prognosis is poor. I hope life is treating you better.)

Long time no "see," hope you're long since completely healed.
