Star's taking a break!

Just for a bit. It's all gone a bit mad.

I don't mind sibling squabling where we are all one family with an underlying cause but I'm not into family breakdowns so I'm taking a holiday.

This isn't the reason, just the trigger. I think it is a good time to let the new people have a voice without having to adhere to the unwritten rules that us oldies have created. I'm aware that I spend far to much time here and need to put more effort into my family now that I've got some kind of calm for ds for the moment.

Don't anyone change your names though otherwise I'll feel all lonely when I come back Wink!

I'm a lurker and occasional poster but I know that you will be missed Sad

My DS is a little bit younger than yours and I can't let you go without telling you that I have saved many of your threads and that they will help me my son so very much.

Take care my friend.

Am going to miss you.

I have named change around Christmas but am someone who admire you - do you remember?

DJAngel · 24/01/2011 15:33

That's a shame Star, you've always been so helpful and knowledgable about lots of stuff and I've admired your energy and commitment to your ds..

Hope rl treats you well and that you come back soon or pop in now and again to say hi..

Enjoy your break, Star Smile

StartingAfresh · 24/01/2011 15:53

Thanks. I'm not flouncing though. I just need to put down a marker so that I make sure I do have that holiday.

trying I'm sorry but I 'know' you and aspects of your story but I'll be blowed if I can remember what people's names were Grin

Larissaisonline · 24/01/2011 17:29

Just wanted to say that if it wasn't for your advice, my ds would not have got a statement. I really appreciate all the help and advice that you have all given me and you will be missed. Thanks again

[bgrin] how did I miss the new emoticons?!

auntevil · 24/01/2011 19:28

[benvy] - is this time off to launch your burlesque career i wonder? Have a good rest, relax, and then come back with renewed oomph for us all. Thank you

IndigoBell · 24/01/2011 19:29

Ha ha.

You can't leave. Really you can't. There's a rule on the SN board that if you make people laugh you're not allowed to leave.

Look, all the shit from the weekend has died down already. Everyones told you how wonderful you are. (me too. I def think you're wonderful. You have given me some well placed kicks up the backside). So just stay.

Why don't you just change your name? That will make you feel better Grin

sumum · 24/01/2011 19:38

Star - you have been an inspiration to me and my ds would not be getting the help in school he is now without your advice.

so thank you
