Thanks whoever left it here for me

Originally Posted By LVBelle OK, I need a margarita ASAP! See, I started my Master's program today. I'm having issues making sure I have all of the things I need to get started.

I think I'll curl up in the corner and take a nap while I wait for him!
Originally Posted By chickendumpling Hang in there, LVBelle. Hope your DH has diagnosed your new computer and things are going better now. Not to be unmellow, but I am really excited for your new endeavor. Sure, there'll be days you'll feel stressed - but you knew that going in and you know it'll alllllll be worth it. So, are you gonna make us call you Dr. LVBelle when you're all done?
Originally Posted By LVBelle Thanks Dumpling! I'm still having minor computer issues but if hubby doesn't get them taken care of, I can stay at work and finish my first assignment which is due today! I watched my first lecture on DVD last night and it was boring. Ssshh, don't tell but I fast forwarded through the lecturer's personal stories! Unfortunately I won't be a doctor after this, just a slightly better paid teacher!

Originally Posted By Pixie Glitter My dearest mellow pennyring, I am mellowly delighted that you have brought this topic up. First of all, let me offer you my mellow best wishes for your Bash experience and assure you that someone as clever as you will have no difficulty throwing your Bashee off your trail. As far as worrying being allowed in the Mellow Room. . . . well, yes and no. When the original Mellow Thread was created many, many moons ago, it was intended as an escape, a haven if you will. Someplace to retreat to in the event of un-mellowness in other areas of LP. It later seemed to evolve into a place to retreat from the un-mellowness of life in general as well. That said, we do try to focus on the relaxation/retreat part in here rather than on the worry and angst itself. So please do come here when LP or life is unpalatable. Relax by yourself or with friends, have a snack or beverage (your favorites are *always* waiting here for you), or take a dip in the pool. Feel free to mingle with the cabana boys (so long as such mingling does not become. . . ahem. . . un-mellow, of course). But I encourage everyone to keep your focus on the mellow. That, I believe, is why the Mellow Thread has been such a peaceful little corner of LP for so long. And I can attest personally that the calming atmosphere in here has kept me from committing a felony on more than one occasion. Most mellowly yours, Pixie
