<H2><font color="plum">Cloudy's Cafe</font></H2>

Come in, be welcome, be comfortable, be yourself

Welcome to Cloudy's Cafe, a place to have a cup of coffee or a good
darjeeling and the finest in conversation and camaraderie.

The proprietor asks that you follow a few simple guidelines:

<H3>this is a real conversation zone, not a role-play zone</H3>

[i]* no flaming; if you disagree with a viewpoint expressed by any patron, please do so in a civil manner
* any topic is fair game, but keep posts to the standards that Ziroc has set for the entire forum, please (ie: foul language is not appropriate and things should be suitable for all audiences)
-a side note from Cloudy: I see this as a place for those short
conversations about a new baby or the latest soccer fiasco, not for things that are big enough to warrant their own threads, by all means give those things the space they need and post separately!
* Please, no one word or smiley posts (Ziroc has declared them 'real spam' and the proprietor doesn't want the reputuation of "good spam" to suffer!)
* do feel free to be serious or silly and enjoy the company of others while you are here. By all means POST if you have something to say, even to start another topic , we can handle multiple chats, we're a CAFE!!! But be courteous and don't disrupt a conversation just to disrupt it.

Come on in! The bar is stocked with coffees, teas, juices and waters from around the world. And purple napkins, of course!

<font color="pink">The lighting is low, the golden oak counters and tables glow with inviting warmth. Near the window, the lighting is brighter, as comfy, plush leather armchairs wait for those who'd like to read a book while relaxing to music or just lazily watch the world go by.</font>

Cloudy,
your hostess [img]graemlins/ladyhearts.gif[/img]

Cloudy, don't tell me that..... ?

Yes,I'm back. [img]smile.gif[/img] I was away for my grandmother's funeral at the end of the week and just didn't get back online much this weekend. It's been a rough week, to say the least.

On the up side, the funeral service was very nice and I got to touch base with a lot of my relatives that I've not seen in years. I even got email addys for a few cousins I'd been out of touch with. And for the record, my beloved Jim was wonderful the whole time. I'm very blessed,all things considered and just wanted to share a HELLO and thanks for being out there with all of you.

Hi Cloudlady.
Sorry to hear about your grandmother :(

Yes,johnny, I'm afraid so. :( But she died at home, as she wished and she'd been to a big family reunion just a few days before she passed away, so all things considered, it was the best situation we could have had.

Thanks Phil. I'm still a bit shaky, but time is a good healer. [img]smile.gif[/img]

My condolances aswell.

On a side note, was that spelling correct ?

I'm off to bed, see y'all tomorrow.

Thank you JR, condolences are welcome no matter how you spell them!

Cloudy

Goodnight Downunda!

Well, my condolences to you too Cloudy. I didn't expect to hear this, especially since the last time i saw you you said things were going better. I'm very sorry.

I haven't stopped thinking for you since you told em on the day, Amber. I hope you're bearing up okay all things considered. And make sure Jim and Patty don't stop cuddling you ;)

If you need to talk, you know where to find me most times :D
