Bright, I think you are just trying to start trouble. 1rnfl
Actually, I think your post was well thought out and may encourage us all to consider our local "government" more carefully. Thank you.

Brightspot?

Are you sure that's you???

Your writing style sounds like Boomers today.

Not bad. Not bad at all.

Gracie, she sounds like Peachie, too!

Ok,

I had to respond especially where comments concern the POA in a negative way. Your wonderful Village is still wonderful because of our district boards, the POA and residents who monitor , take a stand and see that this "Lifestyle" continues to exisit. Please read my earlier post about how I became involved. I am not political nor care to be, however, I will monitor how my money is spent and monitor my lifestyle which was promised to me upon moving here.

[Peachie]

I think your brain is mighty fine, Bright and your mapping of the situation brings some clarity to understanding CCD's.

Kathleen, I understood Bright's comments on the POA as constructive critisism, not just a negative comment, (correct me if I am wrong, Bright), and people may not be turned off by the POA supporters as much if they would step off the soapbox, stop lecturing and talk with the people in the communities. Even though a few residents think they are saving everyone, it's a numbers game and the POA won't survive without putting down the battering ram once in a while and engaging the people. That may the reason the POA is having problems getting someone to take over the reins...

And without malice, Kathleen, I just don't understand why you stay here. It's nothing like it was for you and if you have been here that long, you will easily recoup your investment, plus.
Your unhappiness with The Villages is palpable and it doesn't seem to make you happy any more. It is not my objective to run you out of The Villages, but more so that you would be happy in your life and not so disappointed.

I apologize to you, ladykathleen, if you think I worded my post as negative towards the POA. That was not my intention. I was only stating my observation from reading the mission statement and how I interpreted the statement personally. In all honesty, I'm trying to catagorize my brain and make sense of all this.

I posted as a means of working all this information out, sorting it, and digesting it. Please don't ride my back ladykathleen because that is what I feared most and what I was not looking for. I'm hoping for intelligent conversation and clarification if I'm wrong with my thoughts and assumptions.

And to all the rest of you..... :edit: ya all (I say that with love and you know I'm joking with you, I hope) cause when I have time to think my brain really does work. Well, sometimes...:redface: (I'm born and bred in the land of Wizard of Oz.)

Peachie,
I sent you two friendly pms to answer your bold questions of me. I don't know why you were questioning me? I notice you didn't say a thing about the meat of my two pms. Please know I have a history with two certain posters who have bullied me since I didn't agree with them on the horse park.(Months ago) Anything I say, will be mocked, twisted and turned into a public lynching. I can't win. I have been accused of things I never did. I have cried for days over that. But I have moved on.
Also, know I have a dial up and don't take the time to post or read much. I am way too busy. I am answering this because someone emailed me of what is being said . I am late already for a volunteer job.
Peachie-feel free to share ALL of both of my pms. I said "The Villages are like the USA. I love the USA but I don't always agree with the government."Don't bother to ask me any more questions and you won't get anymore pms. By your actions, you might be a friend of one of my attackers.
Someone asked where I live. I live in Ashland and I just love it there. That was in the pm. We have alot of groups and parties and I have a great deal of friends in Ashland. As I have said before, I volunteer a great deal and I have to go now.
Please don't attack, people should be able to post without attacks.

I have never met ladykathleen but I still agree with what she says.

Peace to all,
Best Mom

If I offend you I apologize but I do have advice for you...Chill, hon. TOTV is not worth getting your panties in a wad nor raising your blood pressure. Stop and smell the roses, ok?

[Peachie]

Best Mom, I have not met any of the people in this forum to date, have not sent any PM's to anyone and I did save your emails. I will be happy to share the emails on this forum if you desire... maybe you should rethink that idea. The public forum is where I would discuss topics with you, not PM's. I had no agenda with you personally, the discussion was about The Villages but your PM went where, frankly, I'm not going. I promise not to ask you anymore questions if you promise not to post information that begs questioning. Good luck with your volunteering and have a happy life.

*Please let me know about sharing the emails, via this forum.

[Best Mom]

Peachie,
I feel your pain about not understanding this board. I have tried to send you an answer twice and I lost them both! But I have all my pms and I am sure you have my pms too. I saved my pms to you on purpose and I just reread them. Remember I said I love it here but am worried about what will happen when they are done building houses. I told you to reread ladykathleen and Tals posts. I told you CDDs are different than other developments. I told you ladykathleen just wanted to educate people. I wished you well. Wished you a good night.
As far as my friends emailing me, I was so new to a computer board that I used my real name and my real email address. So I have friends on this board who email me. You can show your email address if you want to. My daughter, for internet safety, changed my name and hid my email address.
As I told you, I don't spend much time on the computer. Two posters have decided to attack every post I have made since the horse park issue.
My attackers came on as very sweet and sucked me in last year but people who follow this board know how they treated me. They have two sides and they befriended you in a hurry. Even in this thread, my friends tell me they have used my name and made more nasty posts.
Let me just say that all my pms, which my attackers are welcome to see, are meant to help people. That is my goal in life. That is why I volunteer so much and spend so little time on TOTV. I learned.
There are tons of clubs, groups, and friendly people here. Most of the people on TOTV are very nice people. But this is a big place and there are thousands and thousands who don't post here. I wrote you a ton more but lets just say... Good Luck Peachie.
Bright -you chill! I would never say the things you do. And who said I wear panties?
So to my attackers. You don't know me and you are liars. I am done with you. Hold your attacks because I won't be on here for awhile. I am going to visit my daughter in Paris. I have the best daughter in the world!
Peace to all,
Best Mom

[Peachie]

Best Mom, that is a great synopsis but you forgot the unkindly remarks and the names you included in your email. I am not interested in furthur dialog with you, (I received another PM tonight from you). The emails will be posted here if you desire, make your wishes known via this forum.

[chelsea24]

BM, sweetie, my disdain for you has nothing to do with a Horse Park.

[Peachie]

(I'm beginning to think I'm being hazed for initiation into the TOTV forum, this had been weird to say the least.... :dontknow

[chelsea24]

Hahaha Peachie! Don't get scared off, please. This was not at all meant for you. ;D

[Best Mom]

I sent no pms to you!!
Last Sat. I sent 2 pms to answer your bold question of me. That's it!!

A while ago I was so stupid I gave my login information to someone I thought was a friend. Check again. If you did get a pm from me tonight...someone is using my identity. ???

I gave you the info on my attackers-I tried to explain it to you. Just reread the thread. Give their names if you want. I will pull up the threads with what they said to me. People who have been on this thread long enough already know them.

I would like to know if someone is using my identity. That would explain alot.

Yes I want to be done too!
