First and foremost - Thank you ❤ You guys are all really wonderful, kind, thoughtful, sweet and so awesome. I just... You guys are so wonderful, thank you so much.

I know I disappeared for a week or two (blame flight rising, holidays, annoyed with subeta, and being the photographer for a family reunion that went from a planned hour or so to covering a week long + event) ... and a bunch of other things going on have made me withdraw a bit. But, you guys are awesome, and thank you. When things settle down a bit more, and when I have a few minutes and wishlists no longer suck I'll get to do proper gifting that I originally put off. I really do appreciate what you've all done, big and small, and I feel really crappy I didn't get to gift everyone or plan things like I have before.

So, I'm very sorry and I know I suck, but I do love you guys. You're all awesome people & great friends ❤

You're so very welcome. Hope you had a lovely luminaire/holiday!!

- AAAAAAAAAH I THOUGHT YOU WERE LEAVING FOR A SECOND OMG Don't scare me like that!

- Aw that's perfectly fine hun. :) I hope you had a good holiday! <3

I did! It's been a really great few weeks, and the weather here's been really lovely with only a few really warm days. Kids had a great time, and spent most of the holiday so far up at the farm. ❤ Are things going well for you, I hope?

I kinda sort of have a little? I just haven't had much free time the last few weeks, and when I have.. I haven't gotten really anything accomplished on subeta. I'll be back around a bit more, I think? Maybe? idk.

Thank you, but I still feel really bad about it/everything.
Hope you had a good holiday too?

- It was okay. c: I was able to get my sister some stuff which was fun. ^_^

I was going to say you were awesome... but come on, you didn't even put me first on the list! :p

Yeppers, enjoying my time off before I have to look for a job. Milking it as long as possible. XD

hope you had a good holiday and I don't need anything in return

Psh, yes I did! You're in the list just expand out the spoilers. And I'm guessing that the rest of the specific pings didn't go through. You're like the most awesome of everyone. :P

Did you get some paid time off as well? About how long do you think you'll get off before you have to go back?

Thank you, I did, and I hope you did as well.

I took an early retirement package. Got a year's pay but taxed at 42%. So, I can't wait till the very end to find a job because I don't think I can get unemployment. XD Plus I need medical benefits, so I should start looking this month, as least start and see what happens.

~ Perfectly understandable. No worries! <3

You're totally welcome and don't worry about what you gave or didn't! :) Happy 2015!

You are fabulous and don't worry about it at all - the holidays are a busy time ❤️

I think the pings went through but they don't look like URLs, if that makes sense? I was pinged but my name looks like plain text to moi.

idk man.

DID YOU HAVE A LOVELY HOLIDAY!?

Hun, it's wonderful just have you for a friend. Holiday/birthday wishes are enough. I had a good birthday/holiday (sigh it is really annoying to have to type/say this all the time, though. Don't even get me started on the annoyance of a having holiday-birthday...), so I am fine, really. Besides, it sounds like your real life is much more fun and busy. Family reunion? I wish I could attend one for my family. I have never met 3/4 of mine honestly. Despite all the stuff that's been going on, did you have a good time? :)

Awww, you're so welcome ❤ Sounds like you've had an extra busy time (totally understand the annoyed at subeta part too). Glad you had a good holiday!

And I'm glad you pinged your group because I did not get the personal ping. Maybe there is a limit on how many people you can ping at once? Only the first 10 are actual links for me in your spoiler.

well I'm late to the party XD I'm not on sub much anymore, but I hope your holidays were good ^^
