Laura, I just want to say that DU is a richer, more thoughtful, kinder, caring, and compassionate place with your vast contributions these past several years!

You are more than just a respected and valued member of this community; you are a treasured friend, whom I love!

Here's to 40,000 more, until we get this country heading towards some semblance of sanity, even as we grapple with ours! :loveya: :yourock:

3. Zomby...

Not to be mushy, but I'm going to be mushy.

Thanks... A whole bunch. DU, and you, have done more for me than I could ever do.

When I first came here I was a bit cynical about the internet and friendships. When I got sick, and everyone poured out so much love and caring, it was stunning. And it continues on. Even when I tell myself,"That's it...I'm done here."

This place has meant so much to me. On days when you just don't feel like moving forward.

We play together, fight together, cry together and stick together.

Your post made me cry.

You're the best.

Love,

Laura :loveya:

but a dream and an itsy-bitsy, teeny-weeny yellow polka-dot bikini (I mean, of course I'm gonna remember the bikini, right?), and it's been a privilege to share the same planet with her.

:loveya:

Congratulations, Mrs G...you're a goddess!
