    Lenora,

    The Poem is just my rewrite of the lyrics to American Pie. It came to me as I was thinking about how long it had been since I started all this... and it just rolled out.

    Love you, back.

    Hugs!

    Don't minimize what you accomplished. What you did was simply amazing.

    Re - I am so happy to have been told about your blog. On the other thread we were/are on ... I know I said some things about a post made by one. Sent her a PM and without my permission - she posted it for all 2 C. If, at any time, I have/had said something that was taken as not intended - I tried to apologize. It hurt. Only a few would post anything about what I attempted to contribute. But, you, Becca, Carol, and Michelle never made me feel anything; but 'as a friend'. Lots going on in life and I will 'read'' and, I have not left. I'm here - you have been such an encouraging force with your openinga - for example - "Foxxy Felines". I agree with 2011rocket3t... don't ever minimize what you have accomplished. Carol and went to the same 'small town HS' ... she was 'in my older sister's grade'.

    Love you, Lenora - GRITSandSLUTS

    You have given an old woman hope that I can do this also. Great job and better attitude.
