An open apology to Janet in TN...
Janet,
I would like to publicly apologize for my rude and snippy post in response to your news about your Freedom Rangers. While the purpose of a forum like this is to share information, another thing that they should be is warm and welcoming. My recent response to you on this thread was neither of those and that is typically not my nature.
I don't want to make any excuses, but I have been touchy and emotional for the past 24 hours. I learned yesterday that a very dear friend of mine just lost his battle with cancer -- leaving a young family (his pregnant wife and their preschool daughter) heartbroken without their husband and father. It has hit all of us extremely hard and I should not have written a post when I was dealing with these issues.
There was no reason for me to respond to you in such a snippy manner and, again, I would like to apologize.
This really IS a friendly place. And look...you have already made a difference here. Barbara's post should put all the question marks to rest.
I would like to try to start over and instead of jumping all over you and being a b!t@# like I was, to say...
Welcome! We're glad to have you! Please forgive me for my rude behavior.
Mary
