{{{{{Moosie}}}}}
I saw this thread last night (when I clicked on one of my bookmarked friends), and Laz told me to "let it go, just let it go until tomorrow". It was like Christmas Eve, and I couldn't wait to see what this was all about.
Moosie...I promise you, Never in my wildest imagination did I expect anything like this. I had NO idea...no idea whatsoever. I read your opening and something happened that is about as common as the sun rising in the west; I was rendered speechless! <g> I came out of the office, tissue in hand, and hugged Laz and asked "how do I respond to this; these people"?
To everyone who left their sweet, wonderful birthday wishes here and "at home"...thank you. From the bottom of my heart, a most sincere thank-you. Never, ever have I had a birthday like today. I will always compare my birthdays to this one, and I imagine they will forever come up wanting.
WB...I love you, my friend. Nuff said.
To the rest of my "family"...Woody called me yesterday and we were talking about "how much someone was worth". "Am I(my friendship) worth X amount of dollars"?..."Well, then, am I worth x amount of dollars"? I told Woody, and I have always told others, that if I lost every dime I have invested in the stock market, I am still one of the richest people on earth. Yes, you, my adopted "family"...you are worth every penny, never doubt it. Isn't it lucky for me though, that I am doubly blessed because I still firmly believe that I can have my friends, AND prosper as a result of DGIV! <gg> (Always a commercial, huh?)
I am sorry that I haven't replied sooner, (we haven't been home) but to tell you the truth, I knew that any reply I attempted would be inadequate. I told Laz this and he told me to just "speak from the heart". I've tried, but it still comes up lame in comparison to all of your generosities.
You people are life giving, and I thank you...
I love you all.
E!..humbled by your gifts.
