Hello everyone. For those of you who have noticed my absence of late I am ready to offer an explanation.
I have been out of town (rural northern Ontario) where I had no computer/internet access. I was caring for my grandmother (who raised me) while she was on her death bed. She died last Monday. Apart from my father who lives on the other side of the country, there is only me... and my half wit brother to deal with her affairs, the house etc, etc...
Throughout this process I have lost many things other than my Gram... but I will get into that another time perhaps. Suffice it to say that I am struggling now to deal with all that has been lost in the last month as well as going back to work and school today... trying to resume my busy life when it kept on moving without me... I feel so far behind and am overwhelmed at the amount of work that must be done in the next very short while with school, work and "the house"...
I want you all to know that I did not choose to be away, I am not ignoring my duties, and I have not forgotten this place. But please bear with me a little longer while I sort this shit out and I will be able to give proper attention to my role here.
In the darkness I find strength....

Really sorry to hear about your Gran. It's always sad when grandparents pass. There is a special bond with a grandparent that you never have with anyone else.
Don't stress too much. Just take your time getting back into things. Although we do miss you around here we understand you have other commitments as well.

I'm sorry to learn of your loss(es), Lyria, and can only hope that there are a couple of people giving you the support you wish for and need. Be strong, and treasure the good times and experiences given you by your Gran, and take from them what you can to make for good experiences now.

Thank you A.D. That was greatly appreciated.
I am ready to return now; assuming I am still welcome. I do appologize for my lengthy absense. I am finished school and have successfully dealt with the other issues pressing in on me of late. I will have time now to spend with my fellows here.
A Brief Update:
I have come out the other side of misery and grief to a positive place this time. I would not have been able to get through this last mess without such a strong support system in A.S and our dear lady.
In the past few months I have had to take care of my Gram who was my mom more than my grandmother. When she passed away I had to plan the funeral, make key decisions along with my father as to what was to be done with her estate etc... Then I had to begin the process of going through her things and cleaning out her/ our home because we are going to list it in the spring. My Gram's house is a 2 hour drive away in a very rural area so it did not have internet access. This made things difficult for school...
Anyhow, while this was going on I continued to work, continued my studies and continued to work on our Polyamorous relationship.
I have completed 2 large goals this year. I have completed my college course so I now have 2 specialties. A.S and I have also moved and are now living with our girlfriend/partner. Things are going very well on that front but I will talk about that in a separate post.
I just wanted everyone to know that I am still alive and kicking. I have been fighting my way through, have emerged successfully and am now stronger than ever and ready to return to the online world. I have much to share and I look forward to getting to know our new members.
Take Care All,
I hope to chat with you soon!
*Lyria*

Dear Lyra,
we do not know each other yet, because I am new around here, but I want to tell you that I admire the strength and power of endurance you have shown to manage this dire straits.
Much respect Helena

Good to have you back Lyria. It's great to see you emerge from adversity that much stronger. You have been missed around here and we are looking forward to more updates from you.

Wait, what? A.S. You lucky, lucky bastard.
Lyria, always great to have you around, remember that you cannot appreciate the good until you've experienced something to contrast it with.

I'm back... again. Quick update: I have nearly finished sorting out my Gram's house and other affairs. A.S and I have recently bought a NEW car! A.S and I have recently moved into the city.... and in with our partner that I spoke of on another thread. Due to this move, we were without internet access for a few months. When we originally hooked up, there were connectivity issues and I was technically online but couldn't access our email accounts and other pages... that seems to have been sorted now. I would like to say that having my internet disabled bothered me, but actually it was sort of nice to live in the "really real world" without online distractions. I did feel quite guilty about the lack of communication with the MCoS though. Other than that, our Poly relationship continues to flourish, even and especially after taking the giant step to live together. It actually eliminated the issues of scheduling time together. Our partner has decided to create an account here so you will be introduced to her shortly. She is not a Satanist, so please be gentle. She is an Atheist, but has taken quite an interest in our "beliefs" and outlook on life. She has read the Satanic bible and has put many ideas into practice in order to improve aspects of her life that she has found wanting. I can sense that I have missed a great deal in my absence and am feeling a sort of "panic" to get caught up. While I am perusing, should anyone want to PM me, feel free!

Great to have you back Lyria - you have been missed. I've also been away from the forum since last week tuesday. Had some unexpected family stuff to take care of and was also out of town with no access to internet. Got back sunday but things have been crazy since then. I'm trying to catch up work and sort out other crap that happened while i was away. No internet for a week and the world falls apart.

Bloody life; that stated, somehow I don't think I would be more regularly active here if I were dead. We have connections and obligations that drag us in all manner of directions, and one never knows, the darnedest things happen, like my mother breaking her hip last month to finally make a matching pair. Or trying to make AS into a pop-star on the lecture-circuit. The point is that we keep coming back because we're good enough, we're smart enough, and, gol darn it, Satanists like us.

Well stated Ankou, I have missed your wit. I attend my graduation on Wednesday, but perhaps we can arrange a visit this summer. There is so much to catch up on and I would love for you to meet our girl!  A.S just came back from presenting at a conference in London ON, and was invited to further discuss his topic in London UK next year. Things are going very well on that end, but he has been very busy. I miss him, and I live with him! Times like this have been much easier having our girl around. I hope you were able to sort your mother out!
