Words cannot begin to express the support you all showed during this incident that has happened.

We can look from it from all different angles and no matter what we do, say, point we want to make, we need to let it go and move forward.

I have to admit, I'm still a bit upset over it, but will pray about this, forgive and move forward.

Your prayers, hugs, support, friendship, love, your kind words have touched not only my heart, but Jim's heart.

Things do happen for a reason and this happened for a reason.

For awhile I've been feeling kinda lost, depressed, under a lot of stress.

What I got out of this incident is a feeling of, maybe I'm not such a bad person after all.

I don't want to go into all the details, but know your kind words have really helped me.

I would also like to ask a favor of all of you.  Show the kindess you have showed me to Amanda and Tami.  In your prayers, say an extra one for them to help them through this.

I don't won't to hold any bad feelings.

What I want more than anything is to get back to what we do best here.  Share our recipes and different ideas.  Help someone out if needed.  Whether it be sharing a recipe, giving them a shoulder to cry on, or someone who needs a boost or prayer.

Lets all rise above all that has happened, show all what a WONDERFUL group of people we are.  Guys and Gals.  Show them the wonderful character we have and what we and this board stand for.

Thank you all for being here for me.  You've really touched me in ways you'll never know.

Thanks for being the very special unique people you all are.

Special note to redsavage, in my heart and my mind, you did nothing wrong.  We all just wanted to share what looked like a wonderful recipe.

Happy 4th of July.

Keep our Troops safe.  We are so lucky to live in such a wonderful country. 

{{Candykisses}}      You are an INCREDIBLE person.     Wishing you and your family a safe and happy holiday weekend.

 

 

You are a class act…hugs and prayers to all parties involved, LaDonna, thank you for being the person I always believed you were and YOU proved you are!

 

Thank you so much, dear heart, for being who you are and what you stand for in your life and for the TOH magazine family and this bb.You are one of the first who welcomed me here in 2001, and your from-the-heart messages always lift up those who need it, especially me at times. Today is the date, of 18 years ago, my son was killed, and just two weeks ago a third, elderly friend died, so sometimes your messages come very close to what I am feeling on that day.  I have told you before, but thought I'd just put it here once more. Keep on keeping on.  I looked at the other website and saw it was way above the average in most I've looked into.  Forgiveness is one of our precious gifts from our Holy Father, and you do show yours in how you approach those who disrupt this bb much more often than I like to remember.  I don't come here but very, very seldom anymore, because of all the strife and nitpicking, soap-opera it sometimes turns into, and was sorry to see this has happened again, and to you.  I won't name names, but there are 4 main posters who are here every single day, since I started reading this about 2 years before I joined, and those 4 are still here most every day, offering help, and recipes, and advice, and caring, and keep this bb running. Again, thank you.  Linda

 

 

A delicious recipe was added to the ol' recipe box. Earlier this week it was printed, (picture, too) and given to DDIL to make later this month for her ladies meeting at her church.

 

Off to search the internet for "free" recipes to post as I am momentarily childless and bored.

 

Have a fun filled holiday, Folks.

Bless you and your Jim and your loved ones. As has been said, You ARE a Class Act. Now have a safe and happy 4th of July and never, never, be in doubt about how much you mean to us.

This bb is Family. It has been for a long time. Proof that we've all been blessed.

 

Already forgotten.

You're the best.

I hope everyone listens to your kind words.

You GO, girl!! 

I'm so thankful to have you and Jim back where you belong, I love your attitude, your a classy lady, and I for one will be only to glad to do it your way. God Bless You  both my cyber friends. Judy

Ck, can you see me doing the happy dance? You are such a class act and great role model for all of us. I know that we all have things going on in our lives that others don't know about and assume that you are no different. Whatever happens, never doubt yourself. You have such character and moral fiber that many of on here would love to be your neighbor and friend in "real life". I am so glad that you have taken the high ground and decided to put this behind you. Welcome back dear friend.

May we all share in the class and ethics that we are being exposed to.  Thank you for showing everyone how a hurt can be handled.  We can all be hurt, we can all respond initially, but upon reflection we realize that there are many things involved, and we take the high road and forgive.  May we all forgive each other whenever it is needed.  And may be we all remember what a gift we have with the bulletin board - and treat it like the treasure it is.

LaDonna,

 

You are the such a ray of sunshine on this bb.  It mad me furious to see what was happening to you. 

 

We all love to share recipes and reviews, who would think it would cause such an uproar.  Let's get back to cooking, sharing and reviewing. 

 

Happy 4th.

I agree with you. From all the posts I have read, the whole thing sounds like a big misunderstanding. I'm sorry it happened, but as you said, it did happen, so lets try to learn from it, move on and do better in the future. So glad you are posting again. Tammy

LaDonna....

You are truly a "Class Act" and a Wonderful Person... I appreciate being one of your Many

Cyber Friends... I look forward everyday to reading your Inspirtional Post.. They have helped me so

much... Hope you and Jim have a Wonderful Holiday..  bdett

LaDonna, class act was first in my mind before I read the responses, and so it is...you truly are.

 

You (and Jim) are always above and beyond what goes on here sometimes, and I do appreciate that.

 

Hugs, forgiveness to all, and a wish to look forward and upward to tomorrow -- oops, today!
