I think Chas might and should be an exception to some of the rules. 8-)
I sure hope not - my response to Steve was meant as humor. He and I have a relationship which allows for that, even encourages that. Do I speak for you on that one Tundra Walker?
I do my best to abide by the rules here completely.
I realize I chose the title of my post poorly. Sorry - I should have called it something like:
proud father wants to brag up his daughter. Or:
Finally a teenager who isn't focused on herself. Or:
After years of hard work, she's showing initiative. Or even:
Look what she's doing to make us worry
this time!
Ooh! The best one would have been:
"After thousands of soaks in the family hot tub, a teenager
can do things to make a parent proud. "
By naming what I did, I put the focus on the request part, not on the 'news' part. Sorry.
Anyway, I got a bunch of notes, a few emails, and one phone call. Most were very supportive, and I thank you. Some questioned the relevancy- I
still thank you. It means I matter enough to you that you took the time, and that is quite an honor.
If you have thoughts, I am open to hear them, if you have time, post here. If you wish, you can certainly PM me. If you have strong feelings, feel free to express them. You are not likely to offend me - I promise.
And I hope I have not offended you.
