[Actually, I have a feeling my earlier "lapse" and subsequent unclear memory has led to some unscrupulous people (mainly called Cheryl ) taking advantage of my good nature

One last HAPPY DEE DAY to you DEE and then I'm gone

Happy Deedle Day!!

Sending lots of love and positive energy to you, dear one.

Hugs,
Judy

My goodness Mad, you are mad! You have played all through the night! Do you usually not go to bed until after the sun rises in your part of the world? Wasn't it a lovely day.
jjk
Hi Judy, did you ride the trails all day or shovel.....
Hugs, Joyce

~Dee....
Hope you enjoyed the Easter Card I sent. I pray for you always and feel your pain and dispair.
We could have our own Mutual Unadmiration for Ourselves club" LOL Just Kidding.
PRAYING FOR YOU ALWAYS and thinking ONLY GOOD thoughts........Hank and Blanchedog (send her doggie kisses)
PS....sorry I was so late in getting in here and so many of you great friends told me of this .."thank you" , but I was "under the weather"

Oh, my goodness, am I late? I'm usually not late for anything.......May I join the party anyway? It looks like the band is still playing and I brought my dancing shoes! Dee, I remembered this poem from the book "Friends Through Thick and Thin" and thought of you. I know you will be coming out into the sun and flying from flower to flower soon:

Metamorphosis by Gloria Gaither

The spring is metamorphosing into summer
And I can feel the dry and leathery skin
That encased me through the winter
Getting much too tight and troublesome
For comfort.
I want out!
Out into the fragrant breeze
That soon will dry the natal moisture
From my wings.
Out into the sun
From which I'll draw
The energy to fly.

And fly I will!
And as I soar,
I'll saturate my mind
With sounds of love and peace,
Everything that moves or breathes.
I'll smell the fragrance of the earth
And kiss the wind
And taste the brand of honey
Every blossom has to offer;
Yet I'll be sure to hear
The silence that the warm and welcome
Evening brings,
And in it I will race with shadows
Just to see which one of us
Can tiptoe in more softly
'Cross the grass.
(I'll walk so gently,
Even you won't
Hear me pass.)

And knowing as I do
The days can't last,
That winter will return too soon,
I'll do and hear and think
And taste it all!
I'll store up multicolor memories
To take me through
The long, gray days
Of winter.

Dee, your Winter days are going to be over very soon, and you will be flying before you know it! I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
Hugs,
Beth

Hi Dee,
I'm a pretty serious sort of old fogey ... or should I say somber?

I gather that you're not in the best of health right now.

Please get MUCH better, and soon.

Our thoughts are with you.
With very best good wishes ..............
Love ... Len Green.

Well certainly looks quieter round here now...

Picked up my superbroom and dustpan.. off to clear up Ohh martinis and daiquiris still here.. wonder if they go well with bacon and eggs??

I'll find out when I have tidied up

Tig

Hello Dee
Sorry I am so Late!

Sending lots of Love and Prayer your way!

I am really enjoying this great Party!!
But where is the Diet Dr. Pepper ???????

Hi Dee,
I think one Deedle Day is not enough. So I'm starting a second. I've brought a special Easter bread with colored eggs baked inside it and eggs benedict and champagne. Just a small thank you for all you do around here. Please keep fighting; we all need and love you!!!!

Wow! I am just overwhelmed by the poems, songs and warm thoughts. I can't believe so many of you took the time to come to the party. I slipped out a little early but you guys were all having such a good time you didn't even notice. <img border="0" alt="[winky]" title="" src="graemlins/winky.gif" /> I came back this morning and was so happy to see that breakfast is being served. I hope you have a wonderful Easter with your families.

Thank you so much for the cards and warm thoughts. You have no idea what they meant to me. You have given me a new lease on life. I hope you are all around in 4 years and 10 months and will come to my I am a breast cancer survivor Party!

Love to you all!!! <img border="0" alt="[kiss]" title="" src="graemlins/kiss.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[kiss]" title="" src="graemlins/kiss.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[kiss]" title="" src="graemlins/kiss.gif" />

~Dee

You have absolutely got yourself a date, Dee!!

And we did notice you'd slipped out last night, but we all wanted you to get your rest. We figured you'd sleep better with the sound of your friends' merriment in the background. Inferno, Mugsy and Mad (we won't even discuss Cheryl) got a little rowdy there for a bit, but nothing too raucous. Glad we didn't wake you up.

So yes, it's the day after, but like any company that overstays their welcome, I think everybody is still here!! That's a LOT of bacon!!

And from one occasion to the next, happy Easter everyone... who stole my chocolate eggs?

Later this evening I am moving this special thread to our archives. I want ALL the newbies to see what a kind, warm-hearted, fun-loving group of people live here at GameBoomers..... <img border="0" alt="[kiss]" title="" src="graemlins/kiss.gif" />

Dee; Sorry I wasn't on yesterday to add to your special day. I wanted to give out a big shout and "howdy" to you though so, please accept this better late than never greeting. I can't recall all the times your helpfullness and cheeriness (is that a word?) has assisted me in pursuit of the pleasure of acquiring or finishing a game. You add more to this community than any of us could ever repay. All we can do is express in humble terms how much you mean to each and every "Boomie" that lives or visits here. I sincerely hope your day was special and I Pray that you have many, many more special days here with us at GB. If there's ever anyway I can be of service to you just holler.

With gratitude, Sky!!!

Wow, what a PARTY!!!!

Tig, I think it'll take more than a broom and dustpan to clean this up--like maybe a backhoe!

Careful, everyone, when you're cleaning up, don't disturb that somewhat bedraggled lampshade out by the pool...

Hope there is not too much mess to clean up after this spectacular (or spectacle).
Bob

Hi Dee

I am a breast cancer survivor Party [i] ????????

You can bet your bottom dollar I'll be there - Try an' keep me away hah - You'll Just need to lead me to it, Babe [/i]

[And I'll fetch a spare lampshade....Just in case

Love, love, love.

Mad <img border="0" alt="[kiss]" title="" src="graemlins/kiss.gif" />

I checked in this morning, to see how the all-night party went. Read most of the posts. It brought tears to my eyes to read all the affection folks in this community have for one another. We have our own "village" here, made up of so many different kinds of wonderfulness. I've seen it before, in bits and pieces over the years, but a concentrated dose of it surely is enough to inspire anyone to do anything. If I were those nasty little buggers who are hurting our Dee right now, I would be on the run! It is my hope and prayer that all will be well with you, Dee.

Hope everyone's hangover isn't too bad this morning.

WE LOVE YOU, DEEDLE DEAR!

Good Morning Boomers! Best party I have been too in a long time. Hope everyone else had a great time too.

But oh my aching head! Did anyone else notice that very tall Easter Bunny wearing the lampshade this morning?

I offer my apologies to all of you and especially you Dee for my somewhat 'rowdy' behavior that was pointed out by a couple of dear friends. If I promise to behave can I still come to the next party?

I'll even do all the breakfast dishes..........just as soon as I find the Alka Seltzer. <img border="0" alt="" title="" src="graemlins/woozy.gif" />

Hugs, Cheryl

Whoever mixed the margaritas, they were fantastic, but I drank WAY too much! What a headache and.... excuse me!

Hi Deedle love

Just got in about an hour ago - sorry I missed the party - sounds like it was a wingdinger

I can't add a thing to what's already been said - the best I can do is add my love along with everyone elses.

And no, I didn't win squat in Reno

Hi Dee: I searched and searched the Net for something appropriate for you, and came up with
the following:

~Dee

SYD!!!!! Welcome back! <img border="0" alt="[kiss]" title="" src="graemlins/kiss.gif" />

Dear Dee.
Indeed, I'm late, I know. I was with my grandchildren. They are so cute and lovely. They gave me al lot of hugs and kisses and I took it all home to keep it for you. Here you are, lots of hugs and kisses from the nicest grandchildren in the world, and I know it's the best vitamin you can get. So enjoy it and recover quickly.
I love you
