Underground Railroad: Has anyone heard from her?
There's a post in GD regarding OMC and it got me to thinking of how much I enjoyed UGRR's posts, especially here in the Lounge. I haven't seen her in these parts for a long time. I just searched and there's no posts of hers in active threads.

Anyone? She was a great friend to me when I was having some nasty diabetes complications and I miss her lots. If you are there, darlin', give us a holler, please? :hug:

2. Are they one and the same? Don't think so, but anything's possible.
But while we are on the subject--here's a shout to our one-person greeting committee, too.

:hug:

3. No, but IIRC, it was Roni, (NewYawker) who was sick
and with diabetes. UGRR hasn't posted in the lounge in a long, long time.

4. UGRR has diabetes as well.
Not to ne morbid, but I hope she still does, if you get my drift. It's been ages since I've heard anything from her.

5. Did you try to PM her?
I haven't talked to her myself in over a year. I hope she is well also. I don't see her on the boards much, so I guess I wasn't missing her in that way.

6. I did a month or so ago with no response.
I'm hoping for some good news, even if she can't reply for whatever reason. :cry:

10. Thanks--I haven't been to the Lounge in a while and so many of the names are new.
Thanks for the kick.

11. The lack of response sounds ominous, I'm afraid. One more kick for remembrance,
if not good news... :cry:

13. UGRR is still around and quite active
She's my co-moderator on several forums.

She's quite well and very, active. Wait a bit and she'll probably pop in here. Or drop her a PM.

16. Hello everyone (!) and, especially, to my longtime friend, blondeatlast!
How are you? :hug: :grouphug: :loveya:

Just a quick update I'm still diabetic, I'm still on insulin, and I'm still a BLONDIE! I have told members, including my forum co-moderator, Lithos, that it was you who inspired me to dye my reddish/brown hair to blonde in order to cover up the fast growing gray hair. Now it's sorta like blondish red.

As for Monday's IN The Undergroundrailroad members pm me all the time asking questions about it's return to the lounge or about some of my life's journeys. All I can say is that MITUGRR was a project that took so much time to prepare for. Actually, the deadline of "Monday" was two weeks prior to the publication. I wanted everything to be just perfect! I would contact ninety year old family members to relive some of the actual experiences that I lived through. It became stressful and after one full year of publication I decided it was time to let go. I still remember everyone who participated in the Monday thread and the fun we had.

So my friend, I'm still around :bounce: We BOTH are :bounce: :bounce: :hug: :hi: :loveya:

Love ya,

UGRR
