 | I'm going to log out and take a break for a few months. I have little time available for WP right now, and I'm finding that the time I do have is increasingly frustrating and does not spark joy; I'm logging in out of habit, rather than because I want to. I won't write a screed about why, at least not now. Some of this is probably my fault; real-world stress bleeding into on-wiki stress. But it's also due to the way this project seems to be evolving, and the realization that I can't really try to do anything about it when I have so little time to contribute. I'll leave WP email on, but email notifications are going to be turned off. See you on the other side. --Floquenbeam (talk) 16:39, 6 September 2023 (UTC) |

I hope that you'll check in from time to time for the latest music and food. Best wished, and don't forget the deal! -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:03, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
Now pics around a memorable concert, and the story of Walter Arlen, - proud that I survived the decision in WP:ARBINFOBOX for 10 years, standing and singing --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:21, 11 September 2023 (UTC)
Today's story is about a great pianist with an unusual career, taking off when he was 50. It's the wedding anniversary of Clara and Robert Schumann, but I was too late with our gift. Tell your wife, with best regards! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:49, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
Today I remember Raymond Arritt, who still helps me, five years after he died, per what he said in my darkest time on Wikipedia (placed in my edit-notice as a reminder), and by teh rulez. - Latest pics from a weekend in Berlin (one more day to come). --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:25, 19 September 2023 (UTC)
