Re: Bel

Justi,

  Except for Carl's time in Iraq, we have always had custody of her (stupid laws at the time pulled her out from us during his deployment).   I didn't speak much of her then because it hurt like hell and honestly, I thought she didn't want contact with me.  I found out later it was her biological mother who wouldn't allow her contact with me.  Pam made her choice when Carl came home...the first words out of her mouth were pretty much "I want to come home."

You are such a dear. I remember back then and after he came home and after you took in his daughter and truly made her your daughter. You are a prize in any family, glad I know you dear one. Be blessed.

  That is the wonderful thing about this bunch.  We all get to be who we are and yet there is always someone who cares.

This was indeed so lucidly written. I share similar experiences. Though
Life has had a different sort of plate of joys and sorrows for me.

I love my Blogit family.
Someone is always home at Blogit whether its day or night.  And when they are gone or sleeping, there's always a note that they have left for me.

lol, that P word doesn't really bother me anymore ;)

and I totally forgot about that yahoo game!  haha  Now that I remember, it was fun!

There are so many people who aren't on blogit anymore that I miss!  Offy, blackcat, and Rcky, to name a few.  So many memories I have of late night chatter and fun!  I still look at my old blogs sometimes just for a laugh. 

I was homeless and no dime to my name during half of the summer.  I quit blogit.  I kept in touch with some bloggers through FB and email, but it wasn't the same.  As soon as I got my life back together, I came home to my blogit family :)

Re: Bel, have you heard any news about Offy lately? We nearly lost her you know
No Guy,  I didn't know?  What happened?  I haven't heard from her in quite some time.  I often wonder about her and Maggie though.
