Sincere Apologies For Absence

Attempting to get back to a normal schedule soon.

Hey folks,

Happy Hump Day! Yes. I was not here Tuesday. My sincere apologies for that. There are just some things going on that I must take care of. I have told you all this many times in the past. I'm here, because I want to be here. I do not make Dime one on the OPNTalk Blog. I do not receive a paycheck, make a profit, further an agenda for any kind of personal gain whatsoever. Simply put, I write and share, because I LOVE to write and share.

As many of you know, I am also dealing with several different Medical issues. From the newest diagnoses of COPD, and Emphysema, Sleep Apnea, and the close watching of a swollen Lymph Node, I seem to be visiting more Doctors and Specialists than I would EVER care to in a lifetime. Couple that with the fact I have other obligations and DO have to pay the bills, I have very little time.

Since I started this Blog, I have sacrificed MANY things. I take time away from Family, friends, and outside obligations. I will sit in the OPNTalk Office for HOURS on end scanning news outlets, formulating, and publishing the Daily articles and Big Sunday Edition. Again, I have no idea how many hits I get a day, nor does it really matter all that much to me. I write because that is my Passion. I research, study, and learn, because THAT is my passion. I converse with people from all around the world, both in person, and online. We learn from each other.

I DO love and appreciate each and every one of you out there. From the true OPNers, to the casual visitors. From the true "Fans" to the reposters. Everyone of you are important to me and this is why I DO feel bad when time just doesn't allow for me to be here.

I've been Online now for over 12 years. I have enjoyed every one of them. From the differing Posting Boards, Discussion Groups, and News Outlets, and now the OPNTalk Blog itself, I find myself longing for many more years to come. I assure you, I do the best with the time I have.

So please forgive me for the occasional absence. I will continue to do my best each and every time I sign on. I will not just throw something out there with out being able to be confident that I get my message across and have the time needed to bring my opinion to you in the standard of excellence you have come to know and aspect.

Just simply THANK YOU for YOUR time and concern. Your Emails and comments. Your kind words and Prayers. I will do my best to never let you down. Thank you.
Peter
