Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.

Yep, and I reported it as I am sure most of us will who received it, probably many of us. It is perhaps a surprise that this is the first time, at least for me. I suspect the spammer thought the PM approach would require everyone at least notice the existence of the message rather than a post the moderators can remove without everyone seeing it in the first place. Obviously we don't have to open the thing, but everyone will see it in their list of messages and have to take an action to delete it. Ugh. Who spends time doing stuff like this, and why?

Got it. Deleted it without opening. Some people's children!

I was wondering the same thing. It's just so stupid. Originally Posted by Catrin

They get paid for it. It's all about volume.

I got an email notification containing the spam earlier today, but I think the mods have since cleaned it up because I don't see it in my inbox now.

Ad alert ... only because Indysteel (and others) have highly recommended the book The Gift of Fear several times here on TE - the Kindle edition is $1.99 and loanable. Just bought it myself ... it might be a while before I get around to reading it, but whenever I do, I'll be happy to loan it to any TE'rs who are interested.

It's always hard to leave friends behind when we move, but we're enjoying London. Mostly we're enjoying being together again -- DH started his job here when NBaby was 2 weeks old, and then we followed in September when he was 4 months old. Originally Posted by salsabike

We are in beautiful surroundings with lots of history, so there is plenty to explore!
Slowly beginning to meet people and make friends. Transit is so convenient, we've decided to go carless. Maybe when DS is old enough to ride in a trailer I'll buy a bike, but for now transit and walking gets us where we need to go.2014 Bobbin Bramble / Brooks B67
