My early threads were erased when Stillme's H went a little wild after she was here visiting me.
I don't think I'd like looking back on my early threads...too many examples of cake eating & time wasted. Time that would have been better spent enjoying my life.
You're absolutely right on the personal growth though, I'm a very different person than I was then, also.
If I had it to do over again, I would embrace the Gucci/Robx method sooner. I believe I would have ended up in the same place, probably, just much sooner. I know I wouldn't recommend my hybrid method to newcomers, although I would recommend always being polite. Neighborly, ya know!
