Frangipani Report post Posted January 14, 2008 Hi <'> <'> I know I have come and gone in the past - but this time is for good. I will miss you all very much and will think of you often. I want to thank you all for the friendship and support you have given me over the past few years. There have been so many times so thank you. The problem I am finding is its hard getting to know you all so well but, never being able to meet you - that makes it hard. I feel a bit isolated over here thats why I need to leave. It just gets harder and harder. I need real faces around me. iykwim. Thank you for all your love and support and kind words when I really needed to hear them. <'> <'> <'> Wishing you and your loved ones all the happiness you deserve. I am moving in so many area's of my life and I really need to leave all this behind so I can keep up with it all. I will miss you all <'> thank you for everything. Love Frangipani x x Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cmuir Report post Posted January 14, 2008 (edited) Hi That's a real shame you're leaving. My circumstances are perhaps different to yours, but I work full-time and therefore my daylight hours are limited when it comes to socialising with other like-minded people in the same/similar situation as myself (I have a son with AS). I do find the forum a godsend. In some ways, whilst it's nice to have direct human contact, it's always good that there's some distance too. You have to do what's best for you - just don't leave yourself without any support. You could always emigrate!? Caroline.

Mumble Report post Posted January 14, 2008 You could always emigrate!? Yeah!! do that, do that, and do it by July so you can come to our picnic (with the bubbly you mentioned!!) :bounce: I'll really miss you Frang - you've been a real source of support and inspiration during some of the harder times I've had this past year - thank you <'> I hope everything goes well for you and your children in the future And if you do fancy popping back, we'll be here, as insane as ever Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I will keep in touch. I could name you all but I would be typing for hours. When you have your meet-up's it would be a blessing to receive some piccies and updates. Or pm if you want to - please do - I would really love that. Mumble, you have been a wonderful friend too and I love your funloving spirit. I know you will excel in whatever you put your hands to. Emigrate would be a wonderful solution I would love to meet each and every one of you - nothing I love more than connecting with friends. I have always had a dream to move out of Accounting to do fine arts and creative writing. I am doing them all together this year and a mentor is guiding me to a passion to be an art therapist. Its all a step at a time - testing the water. I will be starting out as a volunteer for people with disabilities and physical handicaps that paint with their mouths and feet - I am looking forward to it. I know they will teach me a lot about painting / photography too. I know this will unlock my spirit and launch me into this career. Its the giving more than receiving - I am still trying to discover my style a bit of a mix of everything - forever evolving - blossoming. My dream would be to do a giant one I could run and dive and slip and slide over remember ProHart -wicked - critics say that isn't art, who are they kidding! I hope you keep contributing to the music thread I love the new and different styles popping in. The Batcave I always found that scary maybe one day Suze <'> never really had time but will put it on the to do list! Kathryn and Baddad a very big thank you to you both for your support through some very difficult times. Lya thank you so much too. All of you are truly truly awesome. I am going to miss you! terribly!!! All the very best to you all. Oh this is hard - leaving.

Frangipani Report post Posted January 22, 2008 (edited) Rather than repeat myself I just posted a response to all this in the Batcave Fran <'> Here is whatI wrote after reading the Batcave Oh Debs..... I cannot leave you lot. I sat hear till 4am last night and almost 3am tonight lots of laugh's lot of tears and lots of laugh's. To be honest I have been on an absolute downer since December 13 my cousins 10th Memorial and 25 January 08 will be my neighbours 1st memorial okay I have enjoyed a few glasses of wine. I miss them both so much it breaks my heart. They were both so young a beautiful. Bronwyn 34 and Kristen 38. I was running away from my pain. But reading the Batcave made me realise I don't want to loose you all as well. You have become a part of my life. I may not post as much but I can't leave you all You all make my day a happier day.
