This grandparent had 5 teens here this week end.  Since I couldn't sleep while they were up, lets just say I am way to OLD for all nighters. 

 

I don't think your too OLD - just plain nuts! Monkey Devil! 

There is that! The girls decided it would be sooooo funny to decorate the boys while they were sleeping. Some toe & fingernails were painted, markers and the shaving cream. When the boys woke up they went and put shaving cream all over the girls. Doesn't that sound like so much fun. All done so quietly as not to wake grandpa up. As he would have had a fit.  Monkey Devil! Monkey Devil!

Musings Monkeys:  I am sorry to intrude and bring this issue into Musings, but it doesn’t belong in the Missing Persons threads, and I needed to say it -- so I pray you will understand. 

I hope you will see this, ANJ – because it is not something I could post in the Caylee thread.  I realize you have an email addy posted in your profile.  But I prefer to say it "onstage."

Quote
From p2 of the current Caylee thread—

[Desi:]  P.S.  The apology I posted in the last thread was sincere and considerably thought-out, and I do stand by it.  I regret the hoopla that ensued.  Hugs to all Monkeys, and goodnight.

[ANJ:]  I am sorry, I think the hoopla was my fault.  I think I saw more in your post than was there.  I misinterpreted and vented my own issues and I am sorry. It won't happen again.  I promise. 
Keep up the good fight for Caylee monkeys!

No, ANJ, the word “hoopla” had nothing to do with your reply to my apology in the last Caylee thread.  I was moved by what you wrote there, and share your frustration about what takes place in that thread on a daily basis.  To be clear, when I referred to the fallout as “hoopla” – I was NOT referring to you.  It was not your fault.  And I don’t think you misinterpreted anything, nor have anything to apologize about.

I was trying to be low-key as usual, and was worried that I had inadvertently stirred up trouble, hence the “hoopla” reference.  You did nothing to be sorry for.

ANJ, who IMO is one of the bravest, smartest, most honest members here at SM, now says she will be “riding the rafters” instead of posting. I can’t say as I blame her.  I have felt the same way of late.

I know, I know.  It’s “just” an online forum.  Not even “real life,” etc.  But what happens here at SM does affect many of us to the core, when we care very much about a little girl who was murdered, and want so badly to ride out the journey to justice, and make a difference if possible.  We care.  We can’t help it.  And we care about our fellow Monkeys, too.  SM is such a treasure.  It is a shame when some of us can't feel comfortable sharing our thoughts here.

Don’t get me wrong.  Klaas and every single SM mod do a fabulous job, far above and beyond anwhere else I’ve seen on the net.  The situation that has developed is not something that a mod could really address anyway.  It’s just one of those subtle things, an undertow that makes for a rough swim.  It is created by a few personalities, and is not something that mods can really address.  They have done an admirable job as far as they are able.
 
Bless her, my spunky friend ANJ tries to point out when others are not playing nice.  She wants what most of us want:  a healthy, open forum, where accurate information is shared among friendly equals.  I admire ANJ's efforts, and apologize to her, for not being the kind of poster myself that can join her on that limb and screech out the truth with her.  I have a strong need for peace in my heart, and so I try to be as peaceful as possible with others.  ANJ, please do not let a few inconsiderate members spoil things for you and others; please remember that other members like me see it too and are likewise saddened by the way things are.  And like me, there are others who appreciate your candor and wisdom.  We are just not as brave as you about speaking up.  And we love you for it.

It must feel lonely out there on that branch … and I don’t blame you for being frustrated.  I thought I'd sit nest to you for once, just to let you know I understand. 

Desi 

If this should have been posted elsewhere, or is delete-worthy, then I trust our beloved mods will take care of it, and sorry for making more work for anyone.

Hi Des

  Not sure what's happening in the Caylee thread but it's always a risk where opinions are involved.  Follow your
heart.   Night, night.

Great post.  Many of us couldn't agree more with it.   

Uh-oh, am I out on that limb again?

I try and help them get a break everyday if possible. (the parents that is).  It can be pretty stressful with twins, in a
happy kind of way.   I helped put them to sleep a little while ago.

That is wonderful that you get to see them almost everyday.  an angelic monkey
