DU friends....I'm taking a break from DU for a couple of months.

[Maddy McCall]

I have tons of research to do and some other pressing matters to attend to in the next several months.

This isn't an "I'm leaving DU" message. It's just to let my friends here know that I won't be around much for awhile.

I'll try to check my DU inbox as much as possible, but if you PM me, it might be awhile before I get back to you.

I'll miss y'all while I'm gone. :loveya: :hi:

[Bullwinkle925]

[Maddy McCall]

15. Won't have time for DU withdrawal.

Got stuff to do. :hi:

[ofrfxsk]

13. Take good care and do what you need to do.

DU will still be here. Life comes first.
Tell your frog I still think he's creepy. hee
hugs and great thoughts
:)

[Maddy McCall]

16. Would you like to adopt my frog?

He might starve for affection while I'm gone. :hi:

[ofrfxsk]

22. eeek!

Just kidding. I suppose I could give him a little love while your gone.
Maybe we should start a frog foster parent program while your gone. If seven of us agree to care for it one day a week, he might not be lonely.
I'm sure California Peggy would be up for it. That leaves 5 others. Who could they be? hmmmmmmm

[ofrfxsk]

24. LOL! You're too fast for me!

Please see below.

[Telly Savalas]

27. As the unofficial spokesperson for DUers who've enjoyed your posts...

but haven't ever directly conversed with you, I just wanna say you'll be missed. Good luck with your research.

Cheers!

[drumwolf]

28. Take care and hope to see you back soon!

I've taken breaks from DU a couple of times since I first joined here, and I can vouch that taking an occasional break from here now and then is not a bad thing at all.

DU can be very addictive and engrossing, and sometimes it's good to step back and attend to the rest of the whole wide world out there.

[WCGreen]

29. It's been fun getting to know you kid......

If you ever need me, just put your lips together and blow....

Open up the big windows...air out the dump...and start warming up the vocal chords...

53. In that case, it is time to get the GRITS together

I can't go two months without you here! Talk to mehr - I've already asked if we can have drinks on the deck (she knows when).
