More Fellowship with Soph and Friends (200)

My old username was lily00. I am from the Erwin era, so I remember. That was fun. It is different now, but I still like CF. I'm different too.

I was gone a long while offline though and then came back during the covid lockdown. I only came out of lurking last 6 months or so online.

I remember seeing that name out there before in threads long ago for sure. I've pretty much been here except when I was away from home a few times helping a relative or two and didn't have access to a computer at all.
I am sad blessings have become completely worthless here not even able to buy a permanent supporter badge that they often sell for $10 even. I've thought about starting some fellowship threads for blessings but it would be impossible to pay by the post and since nobody really cares about blessings and I cannot afford to give out prizes which may or may not be something the forum owner allows..... this is about it here for me.

This weather is annoying me now....... I was used to 90s and then mid 80s and we get hit by highs of 60s and lows in the 40s now with no gradual fade from summer to fall to winter.

I found that in the intros for newbies, if they are having a hard time with the ads, I can bless them 30,000 to remove them for a month. It might help people stay and find Christ on this forum or just encourage them/bless them. If I did it for every newbie, I would run out fast. But here and there, if it seems as if it would help. Not everyone who comes on wants to invest right away.

That's interesting I guess. I've not had ads as I use firefox and an ad blocker as long ago there was problems with ads that were actually infecting people's computers at the time I heard and my computer was old and I was using dial up and it dragged even loading a page without ads.
If you run out of blessings I can give you whatever I have now I think I have about 600k or so if you think that will help any.

How about you give them to newbies? It puts the fun back into them and you bring the friends in too. Try it. I think the fun part I miss about blessings was just being able to be a blessing for others. That was all what the little ditties did. I think I got crazy with cf pets and things for a bit in my younger years... A bit too much.

Rest in peace Lil Mis Magic.

We used to give them to newbies when they were worth something, there is a thread about blessing bombers out there from the past but since the only thing you can buy with them now is a short vacation from ads I never considered blessings worth giving. They used to require them to change names and even that is not a big deal as admins do that for free now.

I applied for a new job yesterday and found a page of the application on the floor under the table when I got home. Probably won’t get that one, but I still may be putting in my notice today.

Thanks. I’m really torn up about leaving my current job. I’m still not sure whether I will stay for the school year. I would like to, but the position I applied for was too good to pass up, and I may be putting in notice today depending on how the meeting goes.
