To all my dear visitors & friends.....

My presence here on Care2 has changed yet again. I will from now on only be here on a limited basis. I do not join any groups - - PLEASE do not send me any invitations. I delete them immeditately. I have no time, nor strength for groups. I simply do not have the time. My family, our pets (family) & my health & general wellbeing  has to come first.
 
Please read my blog which explains about my headaches & why I simply do not get involved in groups at this time any such requests are immediately deleted - I don't even read them.

I don't do any forwarding, but gladly sign & may forward petitions on issues which concern me. All this due to the fact that there is actually only 24 hrs in a day & I'm far too busy as it is.

Both my family here, in Sweden & France need my time & help. There's where my priorities have to be.

This is a very difficult year for my family on many levels. Fact is that the Writer's Strike so many of you wanted me to sign a petition about has made our life very difficult. My husband is in the Film & TV industry and he's only worked maybe 10 days this whole year. Our savings are next to gone & it is now going on 9 months with really no work. We're holding on, but it's getting very hard to be strong for everyone else as well. I really dislike the Writes who also often are Producers & Directors as well. They often get paid for two or three positions on a production & get residuals - - get they want more money to the point that other people now are losing their homes. It is not right. My husband may well have to retire prematurely just for us to be able to keep our home. But at a much reduced retirement... Please don't ask me to be strong for everyone else at this point - - I don't have it in me. WE have no extra money to donate. We have no extra money for anything. I now need time for "my" little world first & foremost & I hope you can accept that.

Also, my religious beliefs are personal. I do not wish to discuss them nor will I have anything to do with religious issues here. This is privet and totally inappropriate to even hint at by my standards. If you can't understand & accept this - please delete me off your friend list.

As for friend requests - yes I still get them.... I have of late started rejecting some of them. I feel I can not do justice to all the requests & simply have to accept the time that I can not be as supportive as sometimes needed for an Online friend. This is a decision I've made to alleviate my conscience  when I feel as a bad, horrid, not active Online friend. If you want a lot of contact - I'm not for you. If you just want another to hit with 50 petitions at a time - skip me please. I'm sorry about this - but this place has gotten very depressing & down to me. I can't take it.

Thanks for your understanding.....

With love
