Hi Ya'll,
 
I want to thank all that have sent me emails today, you have no idea how
much they have helped.  Right now I am at a crossroads as to what to do in
my life and having support, even from those I don't know personally, really
makes me feel connected.
 
This feeling of connection is so important, and has been very hard for me to
maintain this last year.  Not having any family myself, and being on my own
make even the everyday things hard, and then when you get major difficulties,
feeling connected to things becomes even harder.
 
That is one reason the FML has been such good therapy for me this last year
(don't everyone send in payment due notices to me ;-) ), it has made me feel
like I have a family through our common love of animals, and of ferrets in
paticular.  Someone even likened me to the mother figure of the fml.  Don't
worry, I will never say who.<G> Especially since they said Bob is like the
father figure.  Gasp.  Choke.  What a hard thought to contemplate!!  But
never fear, I just took extra meds and have gotten over the shudders the
thought gave me.  <EG>
 
I have made a lot of hard choices this last year, been subjected to a lot of
verbal abuse, and have had a lot of health problems.  But I know I will
survive, even if sometimes I don't relish the thought.  But all I have to do
is look down at my feet, and see a mess of smiling faces looking up at me,
and it keeps me going.
 
Everyone always has a place to stay at my home.  I don't hide out, and for
the most part, have had wonderful experiences with the folks I have met off
the fml.
 
But fair warning: Maggie does seem to carry a paticularly strong strain of
the ferret math virus.  There is no known cure.
