:::That time '''used''' to work for me, but our family dynamics have had a couple of spanners thrown into the works (and that's putting it mildly): My girlfriend's mom passed away in June (long illness), and at about the same time my girlfriend's grandma (who is also our neighbor, and mother to the aforementioned deceased mom) quit driving. The latter was actually a good thing, as Grandma is in her mid-80s, her eyesight has been starting to go, and driving for her was getting to be more scary than anything else. Anyway, since then our Saturday afternoons (evenings in wiki time) are generally spent taking Grandma grocery shopping and/or visiting my girlfriend's dad. He's doing OK, but he's been buried in a veritable sea of paperwork that he sometimes needs some help navigating—neither he nor my girlfriend are really "paper" people, but guess who in the family is? Not that I'm complaining; I'm glad to help. I'm also not trying to create drama or run a sympathy ploy; it's just that I want to assure folks that I'm not deliberately ditching the meetings and, particularly in the light of my new status, I think that everyone is entitled to an explanation. So here it is, and thanks for listening. Please do keep me posted regarding any meeting schedule changes, though. -- [[User:Mythigator|Mythigator]] 10:28, 9 October 2011 (EDT) | :::That time '''used''' to work for me, but our family dynamics have had a couple of spanners thrown into the works (and that's putting it mildly): My girlfriend's mom passed away in June (long illness), and at about the same time my girlfriend's grandma (who is also our neighbor, and mother to the aforementioned deceased mom) quit driving.

Fresh Start
Seeing what this looks like following the archive. -- Mythigator 02:17, 8 October 2011 (EDT)
- Okay, there's obviously something I'm missing because the box with the archive link isn't showing up. Suggestions, please, Solar or Ale (or anyone else who knows, thank you)? -- Mythigator 02:20, 8 October 2011 (EDT)
IRC
Do you wanna come to this week's IRC meeting? Phinbart - just one of the huge Bart fans! 15:29, 8 October 2011 (EDT)
- I would if I could. Saturday evenings (wiki time) just aren't working out for me anymore. -- Mythigator 19:47, 8 October 2011 (EDT)
- It seems a new time may be in order, as we had to cancel as there were too few users. Will wants one later so he could attend, not sure how that would work for others.--Cook879 05:21, 9 October 2011 (EDT)
