So, How is Everyone?

October 7, 2001

Hi All:

It seems that we have been inordinately silent lately. I know that my

mind has been focused on other things besides the Net, and I imagine a

lot of you have felt a need to prioritize your families and the

" important " stuff as well. I hope that all of you and yours are safe

and well.

Welcome to all the Newbies, and if you have any questions, please feel

free to ask... I am not speaking much but I am still here. Browse the

archives and shared files, check out the FAQ, read the list

description again and please introduce yourself!

I've noticed as of late that because the list has been quiet there

have been some new folks that have come on with an interest in

advertising or self promotion, which have been screened and removed.

Please note that this is not acceptable, and if you would like to

promote something please contact me at -owner

first and ask permission. Thanks for your help with this matter.

Hope to nudge some of you awake ;-)

Blessings,

Caroline " Crow " Abreu

Dear Crow:

Things seem quite everywhere. It's undoubtedly the seriousness of the

times. But I know I appreciate the connectedness I feel from the few posts

from this group. I've had difficulty even posting in my own group. Words

are not coming easy for me these days. I seem to wake in the morning with a

startle and my first impulse is to turn on CNN and see what horrors are

happening next. My body feels braced, even tho I feel without anxiety most

of the time, I know that my body is more honest. There is a diffinate break

in my bodymind right now. I'm glad the weather is getting cooler as I seem

to be craving warm baths in sea salts and herbs, and hot chocolate to drink.

So atleast my body is craving things to serve it even if it isn't informing

my mind.

I send prayers to you all to help through these difficult days.

love

connie
