Haven't posted in awhile. Had to take a time out to clear my head of alot of things.

My Mom's been going through a severe depression from being alone after 63 years. Instead of time healing the wound, it's made it worse. Her depression has led to her lashing out at everyone, which sometimes results in late night crying phone calls to me and major arguments between her and my siblings. As has been the case my entire life, I have been chosen to be the buffer between everyone. :dammit:

Add to that the fact that I had to write more lyrics for the upcoming CD, and the fact that things in here were a bit unstable for awhile, left me with no choice but to remove one of the parts of the equation for a bit. Since I can't remove my Mom, and I have to write the lyrics, not posting for awhile was the obvious choice.

I'm glad to see that everything has settled down again. Hopefully the xchange can get back to the way it was before. This place is great to come to in order to relax after a day of nonsense, so nonsense in here is the last thing we needed.

Well....let me move on. I have alot of catching up to do....

Good to see you back, Pagan. I hope everything goes well for you...I will be thinking about you. We missed you here at the Xchange. :)

Damn glad to have you back Pagan .... Damn damn damn glad :D

Family is important, so take all the breaks you need, we fully understand :p

It's good to see you back around here Pagan. Sorry to hear about your troubles in your family life. Things have quieted down here, at least for the time being! Some crazy stuff going on but I hope that has passed... :)

Glad to see you back Pagan

Hello again.... For a moment there I thought you were going to break into a Neil Diamond thing. Glad to see things weren't that bad.:lol:

I would have said hello sexy, but that would have been a bad way of starting a post here.
I am sorry to read about your mother. It is great that you take time to be there for your family as the glue that keeps people together.
I read your topic about the concert at the chance in Poughkeepsie. I think I will convince my friend to go see it with me.

Welcome back

Nice to see ya back posting again sweetie. ;) I knew you were missed around here. :)

Hi Pagan. I'm so sorry to hear about your moms depression. Have you called her Dr. and talked to him about it? There are so many things they can do that might help. Good luck to you.
It's good to see your posts again!;)

Welcome back Pagan. :D
My aunt went thru a similar thing as your mom, and it is very stressful on everyone involved. Hang in there, especially with having to be the buffer between family members. That's hard.:(
Good to see you around here again.;)

Glad your back oldie. :p

Thanx all....good to know I'm welcome back...

Pippi, if you're serious about coming to the show PM me. You can get the tickets directly from the band for a few dollars less than at the door. Tix are $20 at the door, we'll probably get them for like $15.

I will call her tomorrow, so we can get hold of some tickets. Where can I get the cd, so I can listen to the music before seeing you guys live?

:dance: :wave: Hi hi hi hi hi hi hi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm glad to see you back here, Pagan. :) I hope everything will work out for your Mom and family.

WB Pagan...nice to see that you have found your way back to the board. ;)

I can understand you perfectly - it's no easy job of taking care of your parents, since I'm going through a similar situation with my dad right now. Take all the time you need - family's first!

Ditto :lol:

Welcome back, Pagan. :) Good to see everything with the CD is moving along for you. :)

Hope your mom starts feeling like herself again soon. 63 years is a long time to love someone, to suddenly find yourself alone must be devastating for her....:(

Glad to see your back, and like everyone else here I truly hope everything works out for your mother and your family

Pagan...so glad that you are back! I don't know really what to say but I hope the best for you & your family.

Best of luck with the cd. I'm sure that we all understand that reality comes before the xchange. You know where we are if you need to talk. :)
