Ina?

[Tug]

Anybody heard from her???

 

[Sheila B.]

Wondering the same thing.

 

[2newfs4now]

Me too...I had her email and phone, but computer crashed and I lost it

 

[NinaA]

I suspect she's off on one of her trips. She didn't mention it, though. I'll see what I can find out.

 

[NessaM]

There was that whole brouhaha over a post she posted a month or two back, that got so many folks fired up. Thing turned ugly. She may be taking a leave to let tempers settle?

 

[Joy]

I'm missing Ina's musings. Hello, Ina?

 

[hockeynewf]

Ina's musings were the only reason I regularly kept checking into this forum. Occasionally I needed some Newfie related info, but Ina's thought provoking and often entertaining posts were what kept me coming back. Daily food for thought and I miss it.

I'm sorry to say that Ina won't be coming back to Newf Net.

She didn't get banned, she isn't upset or angry, just decided to move on.

She did say this~

The value of NN..is massive when you think of just one day..and the worrys/joys/fears/illnesses..etc...that ..flow into, on onto..the board...as people seek out help and comfort.

Sounds like Ina, doesn't it? I sent her an email tonight asking for permission to pass her email address on, so if you would like Ina's email, give me holler!

Another Ina quote (from tonight) when I asked to pass her email address on to others.

Any you send my addy to..pls. ask them to ..'refrence' that they were on NN..or use their actual name..thus I will be able to safely identify them and reconnect. Hugs to you for thinking of this..because yes I do cherish a great many of the others.

Yes I have been in contact with her too. I had to "show off" Tobias

 

[pabusinesswoman]

Hmmm.. sorry to hear she is leaving. I liked reading her posts. Many of the posts that she posted made you think.

Interestingly, I did a search for her name referencing another post she did a while back and nothing came up

 

[Pipelineozzy]

How sad that someone felt they had to leave because of negative postings!

 

[Bluedog]

Ina has come and gone a few times in the past. "Moving on" as she puts it. Believe me negative posts would never drive Ina away, but she will step back and reassess her input and contribution in general on various forums as she feels the need.

Yup.. Ina always knew how to best comfort those who were grieving. I hope she will not reamin away too long as her words were of a great solace to many..

 

[victoria1140]

I hope she pops in ocassionally as even if I sometimes missed her subtle point I always enjoyed her posts

This is so true. She's one of maybe a handful that sent me private messages not only right after my miscarriage, but then again on an almost monthly basis, just touching base and telling me she was thinking about me, and not to worry - that things would happen in their own time. :hugs: It takes a really big heart to remember and keep someone in your thoughts for that long. She's a special lady. I consider her an adoptive grandmother.

Let's hope that she'll see how much she's missed.

True, it is sad when people leave because of negative postings, that's not why Ina left. Ina loves to comment on/and engage people in discussions of current events and feels she can no longer do that here.

I hope she makes a liar out of me, but since last fall she has been trying out a couple of other forums. According to Ina, she has found her niche.

Edited to add: I did let Ina know how much she is missed!

Exactly!

Ina is the voice of vast experience & her knowledge should be valued, hope she comes back soon, she will be missed. People need to lighten up.

 

[4ondafloor]

Ina went where she could "push the envelope" with a bit more freedom.
She needs to "tell it the way she sees it"
Maybe she'll be back...maybe she won't. Her free spirit takes her wherever, and she's fine with that.
