Hi Monica-
I read your apology and decided not to respond because it was obvious
that you were embarrassed about the situation. I was afraid that if I
responded it may bring more attention to it or make you feel silly or
something. So, I am sorry too! :) I thought that it (posting
anonymously) was not anything that you should feel bad about and didn't
realize that it was bothering you as much as it was. Apology, although
not necessary, is accepted! Please don't stop posting... we do care
about you VERY much!
Love,
Ginger
