Hi you all,

I thought I would write today to tell you that I haven't forgotten JPF or any of the good friends here that I have made. I don't choose to talk about the personal details of my situation, and hope you understand that. I know I am absent, and I am not able to work right now on cowrites because of my change in situation, but I think of you all often.

I do not have internet since I made a move, and so I only occasionally get to sneak in to see what is going on on someone elses computer. I have some things to take care of before I ever get settled and come back more often, but I hope you don't forget me even if I am gone for a while, and wish you all the best in music.

You are in my thoughts often,

Letha

... and you are? .....

Just kidding, of course. You really are missed here, but I think all of us will understand if you have other things that are more pressing that an internet forum!!

Take care of yourself first and come back when you can. I miss your singing, playing and writing.

Kevin

Letha, I can understand as well as anyone. Take care of yourself first. -Steve-

For the rest of you, JPF has thrown two old friends together. Years ago, Letha and I were having daily exchanges through a chat interface. Haven't seen or heard from her since. Until yesterday. I thought I recognized the name here, sent her a PM, and there you have it.


Peace,
Steve

Hey Letha,

You know I've been thinking of you and wishing you all the best during this uncertain time. I look forward to your return both personally and "professionally"....and hope that when you are up and running again, we can make some more beautiful music together (THAT didn't sound quite right... blush )....

In the meantime, for anyone reading this and needing a "Letha fix", you gotta go to her Soundclick page, head to "widgets and banners", and play her songs back-to-back. What a thrill! (I've done this with a few other folks here...you know who you are!! smile )

Anyhoo gal, you take care, and we'll see/hear from you sooner than later I hope. If you ever do feel like chatting, you know where to reach me....

xoxo,
Beth

I've been thinking about that.. suddenly I found this place lacked some SOUL, but I couldn't quite put my finger on it.

I realize now..

Think positive, Letha. All good things..
