I think that you set yourself standards too high hon. I say again that talking about her is a good thing and we will remember her.

One thing that I remember about her is that she could get pi$$ed and let you know it, but it was funny. Too many times she let us take advantage of her in a comic way. But she liked the role that she played on here and I think that we all helped each other have some good fun.

The sad part is like I mentioned once before, it seems that things have changed somewhat over the last few months. There was a closness that was unique.

Aww, I feel loved you let me in. :D

Anyway, people live, people die. Unfortunately, it's a fact of life. However, you know that with everyone we lose, we gain someone too. You have to know that it all works out in the end. :)

Don't worry about the plucky comic relief. Just read your quote wall, and allow your dirty mind to take over if you need to! ;)

*hugs alty* sometimes the rock needs balance, or it will fall over... thats what we are here for hon. I may not know you well yet, but you can always lean on me if you would like. And I KNOW there are so many people on this board that DO know you VERY well and would say the same thing.

You are a strong person but you or anyone can't take it all upon your shoulders, it is too much.

It hurts, I know, me too. But I have to say that given all that she went through and all that has happened to her, she is going to be at peace and we can't be sorry for that part.

It has changed, another loss. What we had when she was here, we'll never have again.

Our duck. Our little duck.

I swear Stringer, I'm going to get my book published, one way or another, and the duck will live on. That's a promise.

When it happens, you'll get a signed copy. So will everyone that knew and loved her. That too is a promise.

It will happen. I'm determined. :)

Thanks Stringer.

I adore you. I hope you know it. You my dear have also found the way to my hard little heart. :)

I think that we need to have another phone conversation, it has been way too long sweet.

Yep and I am looking around in here (your heart) and I have news for you... can you hear me inside here, I'm yelling... this heart is not so hard in here after all... it's kind of mushy.

Stringer, HH, Jennie, thank you all.

Now I remember why I'm here.

Unless you've been a part of a group like this, you'll never understand.

You all mean so much to me, more then I ever thought.

Thanks.

I'm okay, really I am. Just having a bad day.

My mom would say that my teacups were full, needed to empty them. I'll explain that another day. ;)

Right now my son is asleep and I need to have a cuddle with the man I love. I need to lean on him too, otherwise he'd be unemployed. ;)

Love you all.

I'll be back to normal tomorrow. Please forget my breakdown, I don't like to let people see that, so let's pretend it didn't happen, okay?

I'll be back tomorrow, back to my carrot butt bunny self.

Love and hugs.

Alty. :)

Don't worry, you are allowed to break down. It's part of being human, I think...
That's good that you have your son to fall back upon. Everyone could use a crutch.

Don't worry, you're not being a downer, we're trying to be uppers! :)

Hehe, I only talked to Starb once, but she was really nice from what I gathered.

I'm mushy? :eek:

Darnit. You know me too well Stringer.

We will talk again soon. I miss your soothing sexy voice, it has been too long dear.

Tonight, not a good night, I'm hiccuping from crying.

Ya, I'm a girl, I cry. Actually, I usually don't.

Once again, my teacups were full.

Stupid teacups. ;)

Sleep and hubby will work wonders... I'm calling it a night too. Promised Marta that we would take a long nice walk tomorrow morning early and I am looking forward to that... :):)

Goodnight all, glad it is Saturday tomorrow...

What, I missed Alty baking cupcakes and hugging kittens? ;)

You can take as long as you want to be back to normal! Everyone's allowed a breakdown, and none of us blame you for it.

We still have our Alt in one way or another, and we still love you, so just let yourself loose.
What happens in the castle stays in the castle! ;)

Starby is a sweetie. She is passionate, loving, a great friend.

She can make you laugh, smile. She never missed a call. She never backed down.

She's only 45 and she's dying.

But, all her posts are here. Read them, smile, I do. :)

No matter what, it's all worth it. The pain right now, I wouldn't change it, not if it meant not having her be a part of my life.

I'm honored that she's my friend.

Really, cuddle time. I need a hug, I've got a great guy.

Thanks everyone.

I really am going now.

Love you all.

Good night. :)

She's a regular happy helper! ;)

Wait, are we in Vegas? :cool:

Darnit, I keep saying I'm leaving and I'm not.

I'm German, it's ingrained. ;)

Love you all.

Shazzy, I'll send you some cupcakes and kittens. ;)

Night all.

Thanks for being here. :)
