thanks
UT: my sincere apologies to you too. I was OVERly sensitive this week. (I think menopause is kicking my ...... that's my story and I'm stickin to it
)
My feelings were hurt last weekend, I got caught in the crossfires of a heated issue, and took it too personally.
I needed a break, time away to gather my thoughts. I tried to stay away, and just PM those in need, but I missed posting, chatting, being a part of the group.
I hate that everything has fallen apart, and hope that the others that have left, will be able to take (WELL deserved) breaks, and then come back home too.
I think that my own stubborness (and need to be away) has contributed (in part) to Jules leaving too. :sigh:

Julie, Know this; I think SO highly of you, and all that you tried to accomplish. You have gone above and beyond what was necessary So SO many times. Your role of moderator, should have been just that: moderating. but instead it became a Be-All, End-All to everyone, and that is just WAY too much responsibility for anyone, and certainly more than you need right now. I think it just happened that way, and was no one's fault.
I have spent the week thinking, re-grouping, and reading. I hadn't been following the HG co-op thread, and that was an eye-opener. You should not feel badly about the co-op, it looked to be completely successful, all things considered. You aren't SuperWoman, and should never have been expected to do it all. I think you did a fantastic job.
I can also see how the misunderstanding happened, and of COURSE I understand.
Yes, I was hurt, yeah, I felt horrible, but I picked up your bag last weekend, and worked on it diligently. Every time I did, I thought about you. This week, dealing with contractors in my house, big end of year kid field trips, and life in general, I still worked on your bag, and thought about you.
You are pretty special girl. A lot of people see that, and you know I am one of them I just needed a breather, but I never stopped thinking highly of you, and I hope you will join us again. You have a special knack for helping people feel special, and that shouldn't go to waste.
XOX,
