  1. I will always be grateful for this site and incredibly grateful for the unselfishness and hard work that Rick, Katie, Connie, and all the other administrators and moderators do to keep this site up and running. There were a few mornings a while back when I was unable to pull up this site ( I found out later that I tried to sign on during maintenence) The sense of loss I experienced at that time was indicative of how important this site and the people that post here have become to me.

  2. Ya gotta love what comes out of the mouths of babes. Reminds me of an incident a couple of weeks ago at my bosses house. He has a 4 yr old daughter. His wife called to my boss to say that a towel had fallen in the pool and to come get it out. He replied he was in the process of doing something ... 'not right now.'

    Meanwhile the daughter was asking anyone within earshot if they would swing with her.

    As Mom was gazing helplessly at the towel at the bottom of the pool, daughter walked over, grabbed a pole, and fished the towel out of the pool.

    Dad walked up ... daughter asked, 'Daddy, will you swing with me?'

    Dad answers, ' I can not be any more proud of you at this moment' (for figuring out how to get the towel out of the pool)

    Daughter replies, " is that a yes or a no?"

  3. I lost my Mother to cancer about 14 yrs ago. We were close. Like ginny said, grief can be a roller coaster. But what helped me the most was a 'grief recovery group' that I joined. There is a book called the 'Grief Recovery Handbook' that we used in this group. It helped me tremendously.
