It takes time for me to give a thoughtful response to some questions. Ineeded to process the evening's event in a way to get myself some balance. I wasn't ready to address your question. I also have limited time to respond to posts during a work day. There are times I may not post for several days. You did deserve some sort of response, even if it was simply I'll get back to you, or I'm thinking about your question. Please give me some latitiude with a response time, and that I'm taking care of things in ways that I need to.

Understood -- thanks. I was a grouch myself last nite. I understand that not everyone is online all of the time, however when I see a poster respond to someone else who posted AFTER me, and then respond to me in a day or so, I wonder if I came across wrong or if my words were unwelcome. Everyone's thread should be their own "safe haven," and so I'd never want to cause undue angst or be an unwelcome guest.
