    I'm taking a PT break

    I'm worn out from the arguments, deleted threads, people hurting each other and whatever else is annoying me, so it's probably time I spent more time petting my cats and less time worrying about things over which I have no control.

    Take care, I'll be on e-mail if you want to say hi.

    WHAT?!?!

    You're leaving us? No....you can't.



    Please try to keep the break as short as possible.

    The same thought crosses my mind at times, too, Nicole, when people turn ugly and start attacking others for all the wrong reasons. Then I remember that I can ignore those folks, and concentrate on the other 99+% who are nice and friendly, and I realize how much I would miss those people and their pets if I were to go away.

    I hope you will reconsider. If you're not here, you will be missed.

    Nicole, I have emailed you but I wanted to post here too.

    Give yourself a break if you feel that you really need to do that.
    There is only one problem - all of us will be filling up your in-box asking if you are ready to return yet.

    Sorry, but we don't let go of our Aussie friends that easily - and you are just too special to all of us.

    So put the meezers on your lap, pet them and try to type at the same time. We will forgive all typing errors.

    Big hugs from Gini

    Nicole, If you must take a break I sure hope that it's a short one. You'll be missed. I also try to avoid the threads where people start arguing. I believe there are many more good threads on PT than ugly threads if there weren't then I wouldn't be here either. Please take care and come back when you can.

    We will miss you!

    I understand you , hope it will be a short one though.

    Why not try to avoid the threads that annoy you? Just don't go there. What PT would be if all the nice people will leave?

    (..and then how do you think I will survive without Tabasco pictures? )

    Nicole, you can't do that to us. You are one of the persons I will miss most

    I never go into these arguments because I feel it is much more difficult to discuss controversial themes in written form which makes every phrase more "solid" somehow.

    There are so many friendly and funny people here. Don't deprive them by staying away

    I fully understand the reasons behind your decision, but that doesn't change the fact that both Ally and I will really miss you.

    I hope that after a short break to "clear your head" you will be back with us very soon!!!!


    Sometimes the best advice is "if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all", and I try to stick to this myself!

    Hurry back!!!!!!

    (You might miss something important! )

    Thanks Kay for my great sig & avatar!!!

    This is so sad. I can't even count the times that someone special has announced they were leaving due to bad feelings and I didin't even notice the arguments in the first place. I wonder "WHAT WENT WRONG"??!! I guess that is because I don't visit threads with questionable taste, and if a REAL topic goes sour, I just stop viewing it. I have never needed to use the ignore feature because I simply try to use self=control. I move on to the next subject and try to comfort the sad, aid the needy and rejoice with the happy. (No, I am not a saint nor am I patting myself on the back, I simply mentionit as a suggestion of a way to deal with the upsetting).
    I will miss you VERY much. It is no fun coming "HOME" when all the family members keep disappearing.

    Oh, Nicole, I understand but I wish you would re-think and stay with us. If you don`t think you can, please, please, make it a very short break because I, we, will miss you very much.

    My turn..

    Nicole, I too hope it will be a short break because we will all miss you & the meezers terribly!!
    Can't say I know what happened, I try to stay out of any controversy, but I hope it was nothing that will make you stay gone for very long.
