I am wondering how best to approach returning to I2. Should I go through every post; should I go to threads I started; should I check out the elder section; or should I just post where I feel like it, pretending I never left...


 :apondering:
Can't you guys even just imagine it?

Forget practicality, or your experience....can you just....imagine?

It's there. It always was.

  As one who's just returned after a long absence, I recommend doing whatever is fun.
  Don't make a chore of "catching up" if you'd rather just post on the current topics.  Enjoy.  8)

  Seriously, who am I without the hoard?  Not that i miss any of the stuff.  It's just that, as
  writer Barbara Sher has pointed out, a messy home can be the go-to excuse for years of
  complacency and inertia.  You tell yourself you'll do X, Y and Z, actually get a life
  ... one day, after I've cleaned out this mess.  Then one day, for whatever reason,
  you actually do it ... and there's a void left.  I've been in a 17-year relationship with
  my messy apartment.  I don't know what to do with my clear spaces or my free time.  :dunce:

Good advice! It's been decided: I'll do what is fun.

  Excellent!  This place can be, and should be, a lot of fun.  :2thumbsup:

Time to find out what you want. Maybe by looking at texts and pictures and pile what you'd like, love, hate, are indifferent to. And then find out what in the pile of what you love and like you'd like to do.

Start with a small project you'd like to do.
I can do upside down chocolate moo things!

  I should eat something before work.  I'll need my strength.  :apondering:

  You should elaborate.  Feel your anger!  :trollface:

People never learn. They never use logic, they never read the instructions, and they never ask for help if they get confused. And when they are found out, they blame everyone and everything but themselves.

Specific enough for you?

  Oh yes.  I'm happy to say that I do try to ask questions before I get in trouble.  8)

  Especially if they don't even have the decency to provide coffee and food.  >:(
