![]() "'Kate" wrote in message ... I sent a letter of apology to Dennis. I didn't realize that his trip was confidential. I did pass on the info to Lorian that Mo had disappeared when he tried to contact her over the summer. I didn't mean to betray a confidence nor would I intentionally do so. I'd like to think of myself as trustworthy but evidently one needs a decent memory to do so. I had asked Lorian if she'd heard anything about Mo, from what I recall, because of her not posting and because I knew Lorian was in her area. I didn't think. So I'm the rat. God Kate, you couldn't have known. All I can do is apologise and at least set the record straight. I didn't do anything maliciously but harm did happen in some respect. But in my opinion, that doesn't make you the person at fault. Lorian is the blameworthy person here, not you hon. I'm going to use this as a parting post. I don't think I can be of use to anyone just now and I realize, from Didi's post, that having only good news about ones life and children (and how grateful I am that things are going so well) and posting about it comes off like bragging. Love to you all, 'Kate Ahhh I wish you wouldn't go. I know things have been rough for you as of late, but that's what we're hear for. If you need a breather, then ok... but don't go altogether. Do you have MSN? If you do, my MSN is cmedwards9 at hotmail dot com. But my email account is set to exclusive, so if ya want my email it's cme_ at telus dot net. Christine (I'm gonna miss you) |

Wow, why would you bring up something like that? Was it necessary? I don't think so. You know, it probably wasn't "necessary", but why should we pretend that any conversation between 'Kate and Lorian about Mo was anything other than what it most likely was -- a slam-fest at her absent expense? I was on both sides of the issue -- at one point I was friends with 'Kate as well as with Mo, and I lived through all of the insecurities and pettiness, and I can fairly report that it was all one-sided. Besides which, isn't this like the 3rd time that 'Kate has left the ng in the past few months? Always with a dramatic exit staged? -- Didi Mother of 4, Step-mother of 1 "Children, perfection, and sanity. You can only have 2 out of 3." Anonymous |

OK. I did not read 'Kate saying you were bragging, necessarily. Rather she thought if she continued to post here, SHE would be bragging. If that's what she meant, and I misinterpreted it, then I'll apologize for jumping on it. Then again, I am relatively new to this newsgroup, as has been pointed out to me before.I don't know people here as well as many of the others. Maybe it's best I stay out of it. Actually, Betsy, it sounds to me like you have a pretty good head on your shoulders, and I appreciate your honest assessment. I think that sometimes it is better to get opinions from people who are not in the "thick" of the emotional part of a situation. I started posting here in 1997 (I think), and I have somewhat of a "history" with many of the people here -- maybe I'm not the best judge of intent right now..... -- Didi also a nurse Mother of 4, Step-mother of 1 "Children, perfection, and sanity.

Betsy -- Meddle not in the affairs of Dragons, for you are crunchy and good with ketchup. That's exactly how I read it as well. That by continuously posting good things SHE would seem to be bragging. "kate has never been anything but adult in this group and I certainly didn't pick up on any of the vibes that you mentioned. I know a lot goes on offlist between people, but that is where it should stay....off list. I didn't feel you were bragging Didi. I'm very happy about your life. This is from someone who sees you on another list as well (the other list we are both on). Here's to us both having an easy move!!! *bri |

Gads how time flies. I don't intened to get embroiled in past fights, but it appears that no matter what I say on this subject, I will be, eventually, 'educated.' If it gets to be too much, I will go back to lurking. I have found a lot of support here and that's why I stick around. I figure I am mature enough to leave the bad stuff alone. Until it hits too close to home. Nice to meet you. I am prepared for the aftermath of this post, if there be any. LOL -- no aftermath from me! I readily admit that Peter was no "angel", and he and Lorian had some knock-down, drag-out wars. But, I knew Peter offline, and I knew his heart. He was a good man, and he was a great father. No one (besides Lorian) can argue that. I am glad that the ng has you, and I am glad that you have found support here. My intent is not to disrupt that -- just to clear the air about some good people who are getting a bad rap. -- Didi Mother of 4, Step-mother of 1 "Children, perfection, and sanity.
