I love all you guys, even those of you who've made me think so hard that I've spontaneously combusted on the spot! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> (You know who you are <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />).

I extend a special, heartfelt love (an "appropriate" love that you can share with your loved ones) 2 all the beautiful men and women I've met here in the last 6 years (in January).

You and MB have literally saved me. I am forever in your debt (and my email is below so you can cash in at any time of your choosing!).

As JL might put it, I'm still the same man I was before d-day and before finding MB and getting all the wonderful help I've received. What's changed is my perspective. I'm much more perceptive than I used 2 be, and I can appreciate others' points of view, even when I don't share them. Most importantly, of course, I can "hear" what my W has 2 say these days. Again, even if I don't want 2 listen.

Anyway, hope this isn't so much fanfare as "thank you", which is what I feel most of all - grati2de.

Got 2 make the bed. My BIL's family is coming over for a feed and presents and stuff 2night!

Merry Christmas 2 all!

2long...

You are the ONLY MB'er I met in real life, and even then we didn't get to talk "shop". However, I have always appreciated your fair and reasonable, if not pragmatic approach to all of the forums which you chose to grace.

Most of all, though, if indeed you intend to become more scarce around here, your sense of humor will be sorely missed.

How you manage to think to inject all those 2's in your posts is something I'm in awe of. :::bowing to the master of duece::: I have tried to imitate, the most flattering form of admiration, but failed miserably.

Here's wishing you a gr8 Christmas, with your newfound love, your wife, and that you continue to "hear" her more profoundly in the fu2ure. May these holidays be the 1's you remember most. May all the lights on your Christmas 3 shine brighter 4ever more. Enough of this 9sense, I'm getting a headache. May the angels in 7 shine down upon you and yours. If you were here, I'd hand you your gift in person. What is it you ask? A 5th, of course, of your favorite adult beverage. Use in moderation though, so you don't get 6.

Best wishes,
SD

2long my friend, please be well on your journey. Your comments and support on my thread have helped to get me where I needed to be. No amount of gratitude I could express here would be sufficient, but please know that win lose or draw in my sitch, you are one of the ones who turned me around.

Thanks for everything man.. I hope you'll stop in now and again. You will be sorely missed.

God bless you.. and Merry Christmas to you and yours.

Drive By Post (DBP):

2day is our 32nd anniversary. We cruised a bunch of antique shops, found a cool lunch place, and scoped out some property up in the mountains...

It was a good day.

Didn't even hurt.

It sounds like you have a very nice anniversary, 2long.

Our 32nd is next July, so we aren't very far behind you.

I really hope your marriage becomes all you'd love it to be.
