Funny Thing

Tuesday, June 13, 2017
This afternoon, James sent me a text that said something like: "Are you enjoying your freedom and being able to do what you want?"

I replied that the answer was both yes and no, because when I went to work, it was what I wanted to do. I enjoy working with patients, and I like excelling at something. I don't like my former boss saying that without me, the job is tolerable, at best. Here at home, with things being packed up and moved out, I feel weird...almost like an unbelonging (I know that's not a real word, but that's the best way to describe it).

At the same time, I'm happy and excited for the future. It's just a strange, middle feeling, I suppose. I guess it's the feeling of change in a person that doesn't like change. Well, it's not necessarily that I don't like change, but that change is stressful.

Which I guess leads me to this video that announces the big upcoming change (if you watch all the way through, you will see how FF was involved):


So, yeah, there you go...I said yes, and I'm moving forward. James is a good man, and good for me. I don't know what else to say today.

Except that we buried this at the site in a plastic box inside a ziplock bag:



I'll post about White Mountain tomorrow.

But here's a few more pics from Fennboree:

    Whoever mentioned Harry's is a hate site is right. He couldn't make it work as a legitimate chase forum. Harry has to be one of the meanest people in the chase. Never will I read his malicious site again. Pure hate and and his mindless followers have lost all credibility.

    Thank you so much, Judy! Yes, we did find our treasure and look forward to all of our future adventures. I know a lot of other searchers are doing that too.

    His members forum is actually decent with Chase related discussion.

    Sorry everyone, my comment was for anonymous who posted June 14. Looks like James and I are posting at the same time this morning.

    Hope you feel better Mindy.

    Itchy - all that is on that hate site is people crying about how they were banned from CC. Just a bunch of babies complaining about CC/moderation and other searchers - which is exactly what you are doing - isn't it?

    Please, people, don't comment about other blogs...it doesn't help anything and only hurts because they spin it to make it look like I am posting the comments. If you must comment about other blogs, don't be anonymous. Post your name.
    Ideally, it would be nice not to mention other blogs at all. I have quit reading all blogs except for Jenny's and occasional relevant Chasechat or Hod posts. I like my blogless life much better.
    Thanks!

    Mr. Anon,
    I do notice a lot of what you mentioned. As I said before, their MEMBERS forum is decent with Chase related topics. I have shared my take on my banning because it doesn't take a genius to see that it made no sense. It was instigated by Wolf, accelerated by wolf, and for some reason I had been given an ultimatum because he demanded my banning of something that he claimed I did prior to the discussion even being brought up.
    As for others banning, I don't keep track of others or remember what everyone did. Some things that are said are truly messed up and deserve moderation. In my case, I believe there wasnt professional moderation. If someone actually read the comments you would see that personal attacks were made by the other party and not by me. The only offensive thing I had done was give the middle finger in a form of a GIF, AFTER I was given the judgement of an unjustified ultimatum of being banned.
    I agree with Mindy that blogs should not mention other blog (as you initially did). Because you gave your opinion on it, I felt like giving you my input on that forum and how their MEMBER forum is actually decent (it is a section you can read after registration).

    Sorry Mindy for the long response- unrelated to the original post.

    What I did was ask you "where all of your old posts were". You responded as if you were punished. You even made a post claiming you were not going to give your opinion on something because you were banned last time you gave your opinion. With that statement you indicated that you were banned as PUNISHMENT. I have the email Stephanie sent to me staying you voluntarily left. Look at Chasechat and read when you claimed I called you a liar compared to when I actually did (which was in a response to you claiming I called you a liar). I have nothing to do with your charity either. You took it off the forums... Which is probably why you haven't had any donations. You made yourself look bad Wolf. You made the situation what it was with the intent to turn it into something. You used Mindy as a scapegoat and your charity as a scapegoat.
    You broke forum rules and you know you got away with it. The thread bumping didn't make it look any better.

    I'm done discussing this on Mindy's blog.
    I'm especially done responding you Wolf.

    Oh my gosh, you guys...I'm supposed to be resting, not moderating the comments on my personal, not-really-chase-related blog. I can't keep up and have lost track of what the main argument is/was.

    Wolf, I don't think you were banned. Stephanie said as much.

    Itchy, I don't really know what your beef is with wolf, but from what I know about him, he's an honorable guy. You also have shown yourself to be mostly honorable in recent weeks, to me, anyway.

    You know what a really helpful thing is? To not comment on any blogs for a while. It's been so helpful for me to get my focus back....and maybe that's what you both need to do.

    But if you want to fight, I won't stop you. I'm tired.

    In my last comment, I said I'm done commenting on things unrelated to your original posts, and to the wolf.

    Focus on, Mindy.
