| Thank you Sandy for posting this information. I pray she does the right thing. It sounds like she respects you, and rightfully so. I look forward to a post from admin saying the cookbooks have arrived

| The books are suppose to be in the mail.... Oh gosh your very welcome- I am just sorry it got so crazy. I was very suprised that I got a call from Missy this afternoon. She said she mailed the books today, she forgot Monday is a holiday. (I think)she said she sent 13 books. She lost her job and will have no internet at home again, so she wanted you all to know that she mailed them. So hopefully admin will let us know when they get them. I don't know why she responds differently to me, maybe bc I kept insisting she not give up on herself? She's not a bad person, she is just mixed up and has alot of unpleasant things going on in her life that may have driven her off the right path. I will continue to pray for her-like Cindy said-shes been a big part of this website and I really think she remembers all the love & support here and that is what is helping her get back on track.

| So true. Nancy I always love your posts and I think you have great insight. In this instance I feel she has come to this point because she was caught with the goods so to speak and exposed and I think anyone who had a criticism should not feel it wasn't necessary at that time. We are all going through rough times in this country, the poor, middle class and the rich so it really isn't any different for her but I would guess 99% of the people would at least get to Adm. and try to work some agreement out long before being somewhat forced into it. JMHO

I don't want to make those who felt the need to express their feelings about the situation feel bad either; we all have a different "take" of the story. Personally, I don't think she was "caught", in fact, she's the one who first bought the topic up. Would any of this surfaced if she hadn't written the apology letter? I just think she should have addressed how she would rectify the situation, but she didn't, and that's when people became outraged. I guess when she wrote the apology, she should have had a clear plan in mind on how to make things right. I don't even know yougethesmiles, and my feelings aren't as involved as some of you. Those of you, who knew her the best, would feel the most betrayed, and feelings of betrayal bring upon feelings of outrage. I think this is more about the feelings of betrayal than anything. I'm certainly not judging any of you, and your feelings about this situation, feelings are never right or wrong, they just are, and I while I think it's important to express our feelings, I think some of those feelings should be express privately, because feelings change over time, but the words written here will last forever. I actually think because so many people were harsh with her, in the apology statement, she just felt, "Forget about it, after all I've done, this is the way they treat me." Let's be honest, she had done a lot for YT, and I imagine this book took up an enormous amount of her time. So now she feeling hurt and betrayed as well, and this again leads to outrage, which as we know, never solves anything, and can lead to more poor choices. I'm just saying, if we really want someone's behavior to change for the better, support and encouragement have shown to more effective. If we just want to make ourselves feel better, than "venting" is more effective.

| I think anyone can write an apology, they are just words. It's doing something about it that counts. I like to look for the good in people but to overlook some things is not doing them justice.

Administrator | This thread is now closed. We received 13 YT cookbooks today from Melissa. We will be keeping one for ourselves and will be selling the rest of them shortly on a first-come-first-served basis. We will also look into seeing if we can get another batch printed. We do not know how much demand there is for these cookbooks, so if you are seriously interested in buying one (or more), please let us know via PM so we can gauge how many we should have printed (if the publisher will print another batch for us). We anticipate the price to be around $20 per cook book, shipped. |
