Deb, My dear and special friend, thank you for you kind words, they mean a great deal to me.
We have, a group of us, truly sheltered each other during the stormiest times of this journey. We have been here to give each other hope, REALITY (aka 2X4), and shared experience (wisdom). The toughest part of any friendship is telling a friend what they NEED to hear instead of always telling them what they WANT to hear, and we have done that.
There are many success stories on the horizon for members of this group and those successes will have been a TEAM effort. When necessary, we will carry each other on our backs to help one another to cross the finish line, and some will decline to take the 'lift' and choose to go it alone and maybe never see the "tape" that marks the completion of this marathon.
I look forward to sharing in that champaign with you, and I will NEVER forget the times we spent sitting on that damn curb outside the tunnel, sipping margaritas. T2
