Hey Annie,

Congrats on your 8 months, a true inspiration to us all. Don't know how you do what you do, picking us up when we're down, encouraging us all to continue on our chosen path on a daily basis and still getting all these clean days under your belt.

Your open heart and arms are always here for those of us in need, your words of wisdom are so appreciated and your encouragement is invaluable.

I don't know how you reach people in the way that you do...all i know is that it's a very special gift that not many people possess but Annie you've got it in bucketloads!

hmm, Annie ... I have been thinking about this quite a lot, as you often tax me to do (think, that is) ...  I beg to differ with you!  I think if there is anyone deserving of hyperbole when it comes to praise for work on this site, it would be you!  yes, I see your Advice Jester and move it back to Goddess!  ultimate, albeit ...    ;)

[Heather8448]

[nursegirl6572]

What a sweet reply!  How nice it was of you to address each person.  SO NICE!  :0)

[EvolverU]

Wow! First, thanks so much for this Rosy! (Totally unexpected, btw) I had no idea anyone was going to post on my 8. (We tend to emphasize 3, 6, 9, 12 mos. as the biggies 'round these parts.) So, I thank you for the lift. Much appreciated, my friend!

HappyDays2Come: (You 'Bright Young Thing', you [my name for a certain group of Newbies.]) Hi Five to you on your 23 Days. As I mentioned on your thread, I'm revitalized/inspired by your whole attitude & your generosity to others. I also admire your posts. Thanks so much for your support!

Shabay52: You did ALL the work (& are still doing it.) I deserve no thanks as I probably benefit more from reaching out to you than you actually got from me! (That's how this magic works in the virtual state: MH, USA.) I wanted to thank you for one of the loveliest notes I've ever received two nights ago! Just beautiful (like you.)

Dig, my long-lost brother, words fail me but you know how I feel about your love & support. You, mate are Brilliant & have proved a true friend We have much in common. So glad to know you. (also thanks for the humor & music -- lifesavers, those!)

Selfie! My awesome & funny friend! Thank you so much. I always smile when I think of you & miss you when you're not around. Your clean time is an inspiration to me as is your continued support.

Nursegirl: Thank you so much for breaking it down for me. I grinned ear to ear when I saw it & sat & thought about all those hours & minutes (Jaayze never wanna' go back [shakes head violently.]) I love your posts & so admire your dedication to the site. You're an inspiration & I'm interested to read your take. I learn a lot! So, Shine on, my friend! (You should tell us your B'day because you Definitely deserve a post!)

Ric, Fin, Falling Down Man, Herr, languageboy, Stauffmeister, Furry, etc (I always write etc. when I run out of 'stauff') you've been a tremendous support & example. I love your groundedness, intelligence & sense of humor. You keep my helium mixture @ acceptable levels & are always there to check on me. You'll never know how much that has meant to me or how much it's helped, my dear friend. (especially during the last month & a half!)

Weaver -- Thanks so much for your thoughtfulness & generosity on numerous occasions. I can talk to you about things we have in common that I discuss with no one else on the site. Your 'out-of-the-box' take always gets me to look @ things in a more challenging way. It's been invaluable!

Angela, my dear sister! (My mirror in many strange respects) How do I thank you for all your love, loyalty & support? (Shakes head..no idea) All I can do is offer you mine back, for what it's worth. You Rock Riley!

Ben, my friend, to use an expression of mine from way back: 'You've Been Worth your weight in enriched Uranium'. I thank you for your support, friendship & humor & always will. Thanks! (Dude: 'Hell, I can get you a toe by three o'clock this afternoon -- with nail polish')

Vickie/Goddess: Your post made me tear up. You're right, we may not PM like maniacs anymore but then we're not in our first 4 mos! (I don't PM like a maniac at all now.) You were my first close female friend on this site & will ALWAYS be! [I think you know this.] Thanks so much for everything & thanks for being so you. Love you, my dear big-hearted friend.

Lisa: Thank you so much for reaching out to me & for always being there if need be. It's always great to see you & an honor to be your friend & fellow Foil-hatter. You're one cool Chica. Love it!

Chris: My sweet MIA friend. I can't tell you how wonderful it is to see you & hear that you're back on track. We go way back & seeing you post on this thread was a thrill. Looking forward to talking to you & a big hug your way. Welcome back & thank you!

ABN: Man..Thanks for the 'fireworks' display!! (you should be racking up those BA's on these threads, by God!) You are one stand-out guy. It's been an honor to meet, communicate & be supported by you. I have a lot of respect for you, my fellow hardcore city-type & Hep C'er! Your strength & intelligence have been a real inspiration for me. Don't know if you realized that but it's true. Thanks & Rock On, E.!

Robert: Thank you so much for posting on my 8 mos. I've really appreciated your steady support on these things throughout my time here! It's always good to see inspirational posters like you who are ahead of me ( giving their steady advice & support. You're one of the goodie's for sure. Thanks!

Meegy: My friend & fellow word-smith. Thank you for always checking to see how I am. It makes me feel good to know that there are other 'out-of-the-box' girls on this site. I'm proud of you & how hard you've worked! Hope I can make you proud of me. (Big Smile) 'Ultimate Advice Goddess, eh?' [High Praise, indeed {in fact the word 'Hyperbolic' springs to mind}] So, let's move it to the royal court & just call it: 'Advice Jester', shall we? Thanks!

Molytex: One of the two male 'Bright Young Things'. You're a delight, my new friend & I thank you for your support & for the note with the Virgil quote on it. (How Cool was that? She exults.)

And Last But NEVER Least....The lady that's able to do in one sentence what I'm unable to do in 3 paragraphs [now that's writing!]:

Sarah: Thank you so much for posting & for being our leader. I'd like you to know that I've been listening closely all along & have marked everything you've said to me. Much Appreciated & With Real Respect,

Annie

Have a great month Gang! Thanks for the love & support. (Who can't use that, eh?)
