The title is a quote attributed to Mark Twain but it seems that it may apply to me. Yes, I haven't been here for some time, but no - I am not dead. The subject was brought up in Kandase's post 'Where Are They Now' so I thought I'd put the record straight in case anyone else was wondering. I may return properly soon if I can get any ideas for posting.

@jaboUK Kandase came back after many months, she asked about some users. Many are no more active, but not all no more active are "no more".

Hello Anna, good to hear from you. I literally haven't even looked at the site for months until yesterday, then saw that I had been mentioned in Kandase's post. Perhaps I'll get back into the swing of things soon.

Lol I do love that quote. I’m sure there are still a few rhymes to be written.

Very nice to see you again@jaboUK and @Gillygirl. I returned to mylot in January this year after leaving in 2018 owing to circumstances beyond my control. I wondered about some of the mylotters l hadn't seen since coming back and wrote the post "Where Are They Now". The post was used as a platform to launch queries about other "missing" mylotters and there was deep concern about their whereabouts and well-being. Shows how much mylotters care about those they admire.

It's totally due to you that I've returned here Kandase. I hadn't even looked in on the site for months but when I did I found myself mentioned in your post. Hopefully I'll get back into the swing of things. I hope you are well.

True, but it's sometimes gard to come up with something that's not been done before.
