Have a care with Forum Rules about posting PM's...they are private... only post someone's PM if you have their permission.

It's best to just state the info that is needed.

Thank you so much, beautiful lady for reminding me. I really had forgotten that. I pm'd De to ask for permission, even though it is now after the fact and I will not post any PM's without permission. :) Actually, I had planned only to do the first one as kind of a training excercise. and have everyone tell me what I was doing wrong.

I am going to be good, I promise. :)

hugs
morri


EDIT: kk here is her reply and probably will not copy and paste anymore, but if I do, I will get their permission up front. :)



Not a problem Morri, go ahead and share them

Alrighty guys, clearly I chose the wrong time to be sick. I am feeling a bit better today. Doc said it would take up to another week for me to adjust to the new meds, not completely, but to a point where I feel myself again. That all being said, just so you know where I am in the world.... what I need to know is......

1. Where in the world are "we"?

I have read through all the available posts and it seems that Joker suddenly became angry about something and decided that "the offer is off the table" and "no changes will be made." There was also something about "The Pre-Vet will take care of their business and Joker and JJ will take care of contest business". I know this is paraphrased but at this time I am not well enough to go to several different threads and snip up different responses, so....

2. What exactly does this mean?

There also seemed to be some very highly emotional posts by several of my favorite people who said they were leaving and would only be around to grat pre-vets and post pics, etc.....

3. Who is leaving and who is staying?

And last but not in the least concerting is something about all the work we did together, meaning
a b s o l u t e l y nothing....

#4. Send in the Clowns? what? Come on guys?


Please keep your answers clear and precise and note how easy it is to confuse me.

I love you all
Morri

My sweet Morri. Good questions.

I'm gone. I've been reprimanded, scolded, ridiculed and otherwise treated like a child. I was told that my time has no value and my hard work and efforts to improve the situation don't matter. I was told to basically shut up and obey the orders. Apparently some countdown is in progress (not sure what it means, but it sounds ominous).

I am an adult, an ECF member in good standing, and a supporting member. I do not take orders from a person or persons who have no authority to give me orders.

So that's that.

I feel sad and terribly diappointed. I'm going to miss you all.

Well Morri, By reading back its better to get the answers right from the posts themselves, as it would be hard for one to answer all these questions with a single answer...to summerize, all the work we did to get the eligablities rules squared away were for nothing, putting aside who said what and who did what(you'll have to read back for those details) it is remaining as it was for the rest of the year. then no more contests will be involved with Pre-vets(YeaHHHH). If others want to add to this, go for it:)
PS Glad your feeling better Morri:):):) Glad your back!

Pss Hi Kat(((Hugs)))

Dear Whiskey and members of the Pre-Vet Organization


My decision to resign:

It is difficult to know where to begin so I will begin with "I'm sorry". Believe me when I tell you that I have given this decision a lot of thought. I cannot really say that the decision has nothing to do with recent events because to tell you the truth, I have kind of lost heart of what we are striving to do and I say striving because it shouldn't be so. Working hard is one thing, working against is another. Still I can't blame it all on that. Most of it has to do with me.

I do not like to complain and it seems I have been doing that. I am in constant pain and have been for a long time, coupled with the fibro mialgia, and all the other "stuff" that I just won't waste your time going into, it has become apparent to me that I am not doing so great at being a dependable member of this team. I have been having some difficulties with brain fog and other "concentration" issues as well as those that come with taking the meds. As I explained before, it will take several weeks to adjust to the meds and be able to be somewhat competent. I thought I had explained it, but maybe not as well as I intended.

Well, let me just cut to the chase because this is hurting me and I don't want it to hurt you. It became totally apparent to me last night that I have no business in this committee organization. I started out confused and just became more and more so. I was embarrassed in front of friends and all of you that were there. If you have any questions at all, just read over the activity at the turning party. I do not intend for that to happen again. I know and fully realize that there are some of you that are more sympathetic to my plight than others. I thank you for that and I thank you for your friendship. I love you dearly and I am sorry that I let you down. All of you.

I want to thank all of you for the opportunity to work with you. I feel good about our work together even if it came to naught. We all worked hard. We worked together and there was real hope of accomplishing great things. I am so sorry that it just all fell flat like it did. I have come to care a great deal for you and I hope this will not make you feel less of me. Again, I am so sorry. It is my hope that you are all able to accomplish what you set out to do for the veterans. I don't really know what else to say, so I will just stop.

I will continue to come by and celebrate from time to time and bring pictures if you guys want me to. Like I did before. If you would rather I didn't, no harm and no hard feelings, just let me know. I would like you to know that should any of you get in a bind and need a little help, you can always yell at me if I am online and I will come straight away. All I ever wanted to do was help out.

Don't embarrass me by trying to argue me out of this. I know that you know that this is the correct action. I simply am unable to do things that used to be so easy for me. LOL Just stubborn, I guess.

I love you all,

Morri

Morri,

I am so sorry to hear this...especially because you're in physical discomfort/pain and trying to deal with that. I haven't read back to what you're referring to about the turning party, 'cause what matters is that you take care of yourself. You're always welcome in whatever capacity you're comfortable with - and i hope we still see a lot of you, because well, I really like you and enjoy reading your posts. (((hugs)))

(((morri))) ! whatcha talking about! confusion is the name of the game with our crew! ;) and you're the ONLY one with a valid excuse!
getting back on an even keel with your meds needs to be your number one priority for now but that should not stop you from wearing your pvt title!
you bring joy where ever you go with your posts - we couldn't ask for a better ambassador!!!!!!!!!!

and until further notice your only job with pvt is to bring good cheer!

My dearest (((Morri))). :wub:

I just went back and reread the thread. I'm not sure why you feel the way you do, I haven't seen anything inappropriate posted there, but I understand that things may look different from your perspective, so I apologize if I missed the offending event/post.

That said, I believe you were caught in the middle of the picture posting frenzy (yeah, we talked about picture-posting rules many, many times here--before your time--to no effect ;)). I was there last night and never even saw your posts at all! I noticed Fran's post about the bird and tried to respond, but our "conversation" was interrupted by dozens of pictures. This is what happens when 20 people try to upload ridiculous amounts of huge files--the thread get jammed and locked and no dialogue is possible. It happens sometimes when we have a lot of visitors and everybody is trying to post as many pictures as possible at the same time. In the past, I even had to PM people, on occasion, when I wanted to ask them a question because the thread was just a total chaos and I knew that my post was likely to be missed. I've learned my lesson and don't even try to post pictures anymore...I say hallo and then post my fireworks at the appropriate time. :facepalm:

The decision as to your future participation--and the extent of your participation--is, of course, entirely your own. I understand your frustration. Hopefully, we'll hear something, one way or the other, soon. Until then, love and hugs.

I'm so glad that you've put your ambassador title back on! :)

To all of you guys... (meaning gals too.hehehe)

I love you to pieces and will continue to wear my banner with pride as long as you want me to. I will continue to get people to search out the mysterious and unknown pre-vet thread. LOL I will continue to write any PM's that you want me to write and I will continue to.....SPREAD HAPPY STUFF rofl. Cause you guys make me happy. I got embarrassed over the bird and nobody offended me in any way. I embarrassed myself. LOL Believe me that is easy for me to do. I only snagged the bird to use for emergency in case I was somehow in there by myself or something, but somehow I got the idea that nobody had the magic bird and I just went all crazy. Then I saw that several people had her and we were ok, so no harm. The main thing was, I had all these cool pictures and could not post them. I mean the friggen internet would just not allow me to post them and I became terribly frustrated. Almost no pictures from me on De's tjread. geeez

I am afraid of letting you guys down. I am not terribly dependable....even to myself right now,
love and hugs
morri


p.s. Can somebody help me figure out how to turn the words in my banner purple or pink or blue...anything but black? lol

Oh Morri I am so sorry to hear of your pain and I truly hope your meds bring you relief (((hugs))). Please hang out when you feel up to it, and I know it was a crazy scene last night. I didn't know what was going on either so believe me, you were not alone :wub: I try to add convo when posting pics but there were so many people everything just got swallowed up. Hope you feel better and know that you would be terribly missed not to be there.

Alrighty then, in the midst of severe brain fog, I had sudden inspiration, and normally when this happens ...I just fly away with myself and do whatever I need done. ie <create a thread>. Since I did that once and you guys were sweet enough to let me keep it, I decided to opt for team sports and try to get everyone that wants to be, involved.

1. I need a new thread called Graphics Playpen, or just Playpen or something like that. Yes, I got the idea from your "sandbox" though I have not seen it.

2. Here's the deal. Since we can all "edit" each other's posts, I am thinking that if I do it correctly, you guys can also come in here and snag up "grats" or "way to go" "fireworks" or whatever you need, quickly and easily, thereby saving a lot of time and aggravation. I plan to post these in a very organized fashion. All the fireworks would go together. All the grats, and clips, etc.

3. I plan to do this ahead of time and add to as I find good ones. Also invite you all to add and to take anything and everything you need.

4. Along with this idea ... is a place where we can compose a complete grats post or fireworks post or whatever and then while the tab is open, slip in, edit, copy and slip back over to prevet, reply, past, submit. DONE! Thereby creating ease and happiness and love between all my prevet family. :)

please take the idea and run with it. Change it, add to it, etc. Just please don't shoot it down before thinking about it. mmmkay?


*possible problems that I can already forsee.... I may need to change permissions or whatever in my photo account before you can copy/paste... but I don't think so. We could do a quick trial and see.

*somebody gets excited and somehow deletes the whole big graphics post...... so what, I will redo it. Still way easier than what we are doing now. Which is striving against each other instead of pulling together. I see this being a lot more fun and who cares where the graphics come from, as long as they get into our prevees thread. :)

I love you all, please let me know what you think.
