Good morning Lounge
:hi: :hug: :loveya:

How are you all?

Sorry that I haven't posted in a long time. But I have a good explanation. At least for the last two weeks. I was on vacation in the Iran with my mom, her partner and my brother (pictures will follow). Before that I was just very very busy at work. I hope I can pick up my good morning threads again, maybe not daily but more frequently again than in the last weeks.

1. Mornin' Miss H
Good to see you! I was wondering what happened to you just the other day.

I've all but given up on my quest to find a mate. There's a woman down in Cincinnati I've been talking to, but she doesn't seem as interested in me as I am in her.

I've decided to move and I have my condo up for sale. I was sort of in a dilemma there for a bit. The woman I was talking about lives 50 miles to the south of me, but my employer is 30 miles to the north in Troy, Ohio. I have decided to move up north to Troy since she doesn't appear all that enthusiastic about getting to know me.

I'll be moving away from my family and the friends I have around here, but I think it's actually something that I need to do. My family is somewhat dysfunctional and I think it would be healthy for me to put some distance between me and them.

2. Good morning Tobin
:hi: :hug: :loveya:

Yes, I have neglected my friends here. I am sorry for that.

Maybe if you stop looking you will find love. I wish you the best for sure.

I think it is a good idea to move away a little bit and live your own life. And your family is still there for you, no matter what :hug:

3. Wow! Good to see you!
I've missed you, but understand that there's more to life than DU. I myself have been neglecting this site lately too.

Can't wait to see your pictures of Iran.

Just watched a movie called "The Stoning of Soraya M" which takes place in Iran. Very powerful movie. http://www.thestoning.com/


I'm heading out for vacation on Friday. Going to Cozumel scuba diving.

I just bought a new camera (no underwater housing yet), so be prepared to be bombarded with pictures upon my return.

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

It was a busy time before my vacation. But now it is a bit more quiet .... and I can spend some more time here again.

I am doing fine. Of course I have a lot of work on my desk after being away for two weeks.

10. Good morning Sky
:hi: :hug: :loveya:

They have good chicken there :D

Honestly, no reason to be worried. The people are friendly and welcome foreigners into their country (just ignore the government). The people are happy to show foreigners their beautiful country and its history.

14. I am sure the people are lovely.
Hell,I was sort of scared in both Prague and Mexico,so I'm just a wimp. ;)
I felt safe and at home in Berlin though.
I bet the food is wonderful in Iran. :)

11. Wonderful to see you!
I'm looking forward to hearing and seeing more about your trip. My own work has been insane for weeks now but I get to make a trip to Atlanta for the CNU 18 Urbanism conference this week.

See you around the interwebs!

I hope you can relax a bit while being in Atlanta :)

18. Welcome back!
:hi: :hug:

That sounds like a fascinating trip! Hope that everyone had much fun. It's renfest time here, and the weather is better than last year. The turnout is good, as long as the weather forecasters don't mention rain. Having a great time!

25. Pics are posted
you can look on Facebook, or in renspeak, The Book of Faces. :P

On a sad note, two losses last week. A long-time rennie suddenly died of a heart attack and my tailor's husband (she tailored my velvet trousers and added jewels to my vest, all great work) died after a long-running battle with cancer. It's been a sad weekend. :(

:cry:

26. Oh goodie
I will look it up, you can be sure of that :D

Sorry to hear about your losses. :hug: I came back today to work to hear that a former co-worker also died of cancer end of last week.
But I also got good news today. Another former co-worker gave birth to a healthy little boy last week.

23. Very adventurous vacation, MHC, welcome back
Iran? I think I'd be a little worried about traveling there. But that's just me. I thought just driving on the Autobahn was a bit nerve-wracking.

Taq-e Bostan looks interesting.

24. Good morning JustABozo
:hi: :hug:

Nothing to worry about while traveling the Iran. The people are happy to see foreigners. Just accept their religion and stay away from big groups. We didn't have any problems at all.

Now driving in the cities of Iran is even more nerve-wracking than driving the Autobahn. It is crazy. I am glad we had a driver. And he was a very good driver.
