MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!
« on: December 21, 2007, 07:35:02 am »
Just wanted to say that even though this year has been a little rough, I consider myself very blessed.  In the coming days, things will get hectic and I just wanted you all to know that I appreciate your support.  I don't know what I would have done without you.  I hope you have a very Merry Christmas!

I don't always post that much, but I do try to read some of the posts when I can.  There are alot of really great people on these boards and it's a great support system.    Phyl and Joef, you do a great job here on the boards, I'm sorry to hear Brucifer is no longer on the boards, he is a great guy and had alot to offer.  These boards wouldn't be the same without you guys and I hope you know you are appreciated.  2007 was a good year, I made it through and lived to tell about it!  I met some great people from the forum at the Philly Symposium and learned a few new things about AN.  I'd like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Happy and Healthy New Year!!

Cheers to my new friends in this AN family ... I could not have got through this fall without you all.

(Don't worry not promoting a product in sharing this - just humor and good cheer are my intentions. I still cannot stand the taste of alcoholic bevies-  post-op. This “drunken sailor in the windâ€? will just pass on the rum and eggnog plus hot toddies - this season)

Toast to Phyl and Joef for all their hard work… to keep PEACE in the family.

I shared this earlier with Phyl ... but I figure the rest of you might like it too.

This misplaced Canadian, over here in wet dizzily rural Oregon, would SO like snow for Christmas…
*   and maybe some friends to go horseback riding with who wear big ole Texas Stetsons and cowboy boots a little closer by …
    Yee Ha.
*   MMM I wonder if there are horses and snow in Wyoming … (cheers to my very special buddy there too)…
*   and all the wild and crazy pirates … Snow? Captain Deb do yer have snow on deck … are ther icebergs in the waters there?
*  Cheza - any snow there in jolly ole England?
*  all my special buddies here

Let it snow… let it snow … let it snow!

Merry Christmas and Cheers everyone,

Thanks for blowing the snow down south to us here- Anne Marie. ;)
