I haven’t missed you, Shirley, because that would imply that I’d been shooting at you, and I don’t shoot at persons I like. But I am glad you have returned. ---

NOt sure why I decided to peek my head back in, just as the holidays rear their head. I must be mental. It’s great to see all of you. You all look great. Did you lose weight or something? 🙂 ---

I don’t remember any special posts or posting habits of yours, but I always liked your handle. I remember that. ---

I did read an old post with you in it, and wondered where you’d gone. Also, this is the first time someone has asked if people remembered them and I did. ---

I didn’t know you had gone- but I had left for close to two years myself (with odd drop ins). ---

You look somewhat familiar…ok, yes, familiar. But I’ve been mostly gone for the past decade or so, with the occasional drop in. ---

**Shirley!** :tacklehug: I distinctly remember you giving me grief about wearing lederhosen, and to your surprise, I said such a picture of me exists. Then you disappeared. Well, I have picture proof in my possession, and I’m waiting to show it to you. The formal portrait is 101% SFW.
