I'm sorry, Mo! I didn't see the post in question, but I've been barely on the forum for the past three weeks, and at the moment I'm feeling like I just can't keep up.

For the record, I've always thought you have fabulous style. It suits your lifestyle, your personality and your body shape. Carry on!

Hi Mo -- I'm dumping a lot of thoughts here...

First, you KNOW I always comment when I see your WIWs or any Mo threads. We have a lot in common living casual lifestyles.

However I haven't been here much lately. I have been feeling less interested on the one hand, and on the other hand, overwhelmed. So today I posted a WIW because I knew that would re-engage me in the forum. As a result, today was the first day in a while that I spent a lot of time here. I agree it's hard not to get comparative or competitive with others, I do it too but instead of thinking I shouldn't post WIWs any more I think the opposite. It's usually when I'm not participating as much that my threads aren't as "popular." I think the people who get a lot of responses tend to GIVE a lot on the forum as well.

One thing I try to do on a regular basis is go to the WIW section. That way I might pull up some older WIWs that got pushed down on the list.

This is tangential, but I wonder if anyone else feels guilty for starting too many threads. For example, I lump my WIWs together and lately spend a fair amount of time creating collages with captions etc. Also I put a fair amount of effort into finding good photo locations. However, I wonder if just a simple one-outfit WIW would be less cumbersome for everyone. I'm thinking of going this route again. My WIW post today had 6 outfits in it, a little overwhelming no?

Sorry I missed your BR thread (what does that stand for BTW). It's just been a busy season, I'm still working 6 days a week but starting next monday I go to only 4-5. Woohoo!!!

Any chance you will be coming to Tahoe in the (near) future?

Denise, I love when people post a series of WIWs in a post - it's so much fun to see cohesiveness and variety that way. I never do it, of course, because I can't seem to get my act together. But I love when you, Christie, Aida, and others do it!

Denise, I am with Una - I love to see a handful of WIW together. I do get overwhelmed after 4 or 5 but that's just me. You are right about the give and take aspect . . . I like to think I give input as much as post my own. But at any rate, the irritating post in question is long in the records and so is my attachment to it. I'm free!!!

I do plan on returning to Tahoe imminently! I was hesitant to say, but the BF called our old boss at the pub (who had called us up to work not 2 days after he just got to FL, remember?!) and said we are planning our return and to please call us. Well, got a call back the next night and he said he'll pencil us in! So we have all expectations of a job waiting. Wheee!!! Planning to leave FL on the 15th of December to be ready to work the crazy Xmas to New Years week.
