I tried commenting yesterday and my comment went poof so I will try again. While I had decided to discontinue the blog in a weak moment, I have had a change of heart and am back. Thanks for the shout out and thanks, Deb, as well for your concern. <br /><br />If you read the post I put up yesterday you will see what I have been doing for 2 months. Stressful time indeed. Blogging, though, does help me and I have kept up with all the ones I follow. <br /><br />One change with my blog at this time is that I am dropping the pseudonym of Immer and going with who I really am - Julie.

And I need to fix his link.<br /><br />And for the rest of you, JW is still missed. It is just so petty that some troll took it upon themselves to tell his employer. And oddly enough, hardly any of his drama concerned his employer.<br /><br />If anyone knows how he's doing, I'd really like to hear about it.<br /><br />You know, just before I had my surgery, I actually wrote out a 'final post' and put it in the envelope with my will!!

That blog was a cross between 'Days of our lives' and 'Beverly Hill-billies'. He was either wonderfully frank and suffered an amazing string of bad luck, or else was a talented writer of fiction. Apparently some stalker/reader decided to let his company know about the blog, and he had to delete it in order to keep his job.enoughwealth@yahoo.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09371028394685288035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5601819916630680133.post-24143096850894982812010-08-04T16:44:00.322-07:002010-08-04T16:44:00.322-07:00I still miss JW too!!I still miss JW too!!Florencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01157294752967287405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5601819916630680133.post-3123527163032426522010-08-04T16:32:06.704-07:002010-08-04T16:32:06.704-07:00Yes, JW, and Budgeting Babe, and now Bouncing Back...Yes, JW, and Budgeting Babe, and now Bouncing Back from Bankrupcty.
