[Gpdd] [MISC] Giving Thanks

[DL1Bossfan at aol.com]

Hi Friends:
With the risk of "being too mushy", I would like to take this appropriate  
time of the year to tell you all how thankful "the boys" and I  are (everyday) 
for this website and to each of you.  If it wasn't for  my three beloved angels 
(Romeo, Latte, and Hershey) who went over the Rainbow  Bridge last winter, I 
would never have found this site.  Tex, I am thankful  for you - you have 
spent many an hour with me (and others) on various  occasions helping us to 
understand health problems of our piggies and what to do  to make them more 
comfortable.  Leah, I am thankful for you - you have  given many of us helpful hints 
while keeping us all in smiles over the antics of  Miss Brownie Bear and 
Butterscotch.  Joseph C., I am thankful for you - you  have ALWAYS been so sweet and 
comforting to everyone on this site that has  suffered losses even as you 
were suffering so deeply with your own.  George  was such a lucky piggy to have 
you and Gail!  Lisa , I am thankful for  you - without the help of you (as well 
as Judi, Linda, Lauren, Patricia, Janet,  and Virginia and her family) the 
great transport in August just would not  have happened!  Tom and Huck would not 
have come into my life - (and what a  joy they are)! Lisa and I are probably 
kin anyway, because Ozzy and Huck look  similar and they both came from that 
scums stinky garage!  I still can't  get over that looooong day in August and 
how well the transport turned  out!  Misty, Michelle, Tina, Debbie, Dana, and 
Alge, I am thankful for all  of you and the MANY others that helped with input 
for the article that I  recently submitted. (And by the way - the editor said 
that she did manage to  "squeeze the article into her paper" - she just had to 
condense it somewhat, so  I am anxious to read it, maybe that will be in a 
wheek or 2)  And  please - if you weren't mentioned it is not because I am not 
thankful - it is  because I am also forgetful of names!  But there you have it 
- you are ALL  a GREAT bunch of people and as a result, our precious little 
piggies  benefit and have wonderful lives!  May each and everyone of you on this 
 site have a super holiday, and please also remember to keep the men  and 
women that are in the service (here and overseas) in your prayers.
Donna (Tom, Huck, G.I. Joe, and Spike)
