Dear @tonys ,
I'm so sorry. I looks like the letter has disappeared into cyber space. I'm sorry I couldn't retrieve it for you. It looks like it's gone now.
I acknowledge the time it took to write that letter, and I'm sure @BPDSurvivor and others feel that care and perseverance you have demonstrated.
Once again, I'm so sorry the letter disappeared 😞

@tyme or some one who may find a moment to solve a little mystery for me. i followed your instuctions as well as a computor dummy can and thanks for your help. tryed in drafts, only saw older items in there 9th 10th of aug. and it took me to places where other peoples stuff was. to the left was a header called latest contributions but they contained mine and replies. tried to find where it might say your posts so i could see just what i had sent with a section that said failed to send .. resend. like my phone does. may i very politely on by knees begging ask you to save me a lot of frustration. when you said you saw my drafts i understood that to mean you saw the one i described. it is to bpd survivor and ends with the words , if you dont have a fire, then i hope the fire inside you keeps you warm. did you see that post?.. know you are busy, so if you can just tell me if you saw( that ) letter or not it will save all the comuter navigation letters. its the only one i sent yesterday apart from all the ones to you trying to find it . yours in good faith , tonys

@tyme thats the trouble with slow fingers and computors. while you where sending your kite to me i was sending another one to you looking for my lost luggage, so at least i know its lost. no big deal, the only problem was i burnt my muffins being so absorbed in the search, and theres already enough space junk up there with out me adding to it. i did wonder why the letters i see a short.. theres a lesson here for me. keep it short. hope you have a top day. tonys

Another option @tonys , is if you want to type your long letters on a Word document or another application, then copy and paste it over to the forums?
I do that sometimes if there's a lot for me to discuss.

Hi @tonys
How are you going?
I'm so sorry you lost one of your letters. It has happened to me before if I have accidentally pressed a button by mistake. It can be so disappointing.
Your baked beans story was soooo entertaining. Yep, you are great at putting at smile on my face.
Thankyou so much for your effort, time and kindness.
I don't have much else to say. Hello & I hope you have a wonderful day!

@maddison hello and thanks for your words. knowing i made some one smile or laugh is the only only happy pill i can afford. if your smiling , i am smiling. yes i loose plenty, i even managed to loose my mind many moons ago, but red horse solved it for me. he had the same issues. the computor at your end times me out, because i have to think on every word.. so i have got to learn how to save copy paste, some one will make the mistake of trying to teach me one day and then ill be more confident. tech is a big leap for me. i learnt to down load a pic of a hot meal last week and i have attached a carbon printer to the computor, spoon in one hand, fork in the other drooling in anticipation, now why wont it work.. you all take care now, thanks again for feedback. tonys from moon base one.

@maddison what a night mare it was just sending that last kite, it asked me to fix all my errors, i failed grade 2 . brain damage stops me from seeing things straight away, but then after chopping and changing my letter 10 times i finally saw it. you can say spoon or fork but your not allowed to say that other vital implement so what do i use if when my steak prints out, guess once i leave this mountain shrouded valley, there all using spoons now. im going off to have a sensible conversation with my horse,... its ok , i get why you have measures in place, its just such a different world out there. stay safe, ill be more careful with the cutlery. smiles to all ..tonys moon base one.

@tonys thankyou so much for the reply & laughter.... Yes, we are all using spoons out here to eat our steaks... It can be difficult, until we realised that, perhaps we could try printing 'pre-cut' steaks. I'm still not sold.
I know you are joking about having sensible conversation with horse, I suspect there could be some truth behind it. I have found animals to be amazing comfort. They are so clever, sensitive & wise, unencumbered by the complications of being human. I have really only ever spoken with cats & dogs. I like what they tell me! I wonder what secrets horses hold?
Thankyou for the two letters.
Thankyou again for the effort you put in to writing.
Don't stress & reply whenever you get the chance.
