Thank you so much from me too! Even in my own misery, I still want to make my friends smile. Knowing they are smiling helps me to smile some too.
And yes, SpitFire's words and comforting have meant so much to me these last few weeks.

Thanks Quirky. I suppose, well actually, I assume I'll need all the
extra smiles I can get.

Wasn't that so sweet of Jemmie, Symph?
Like I told Whammie, I cherish my friends and I am grateful to call you a friend. Thanks for your kind words and constant support.

Oh, my Whammie, I'm flattered! And I never understood that women in
competition thing. I always felt that women do need to stick together and many do. We are so much different than men. Like, we can be complete strangers in a ladies' bathroom and ask another woman if she has a spare tampon or if she can help you button something. That's what I appreciate about being a woman, and I think we cherish our friends, too. I know I cherish you and feel lucky that I know you.

Spitfire, I am tempted to dig in my Teddy Bear collection....and send you
something from the heart, too.
I consider you a Friend, as well! You are a Good Woman, and women need to learn to stick together instead of competing. I adore you, all the way!
Love,
Whammie

Yep! I got it just fine!
Hey, was there a card with the bear? I asked them to send a little note with it, but in the past when I've sent flowers to my family, they've never gotten the little note card.
The picture of the bear is even cuter than the one I saw on the website--maybe 'cause it's a bigger picture!
