I would like to write this little diddy to thank you all for supporting me by either joining the 2 groups that I created, Spill it.... & funnyemails & for the comments that you have wrote on anything that I have published. I have truely enjoyed my time here on gather. I have came across many different people on here & have truely enjoyed it, whether I share the same views as others, or not. I have been rather busy with work & family.
My grandfather passed away 1 week ago. I have been, rather, positive about the whole thing. It really opened my eyes to a few things. Last year, I miscarried twins & had been in a deep depression over it. When papaw passed away, I realized life really is too short to be mad, angry, or depressed over anything.
So, my whole attitude on things have changed. I now, can not help but find the good in everything I do or say or am around. There are so many wonderful things about life, why fret, stue, worry, be mad/angry, depressed over things if your not going to do something about it? I realized that there are many other people out there who do worry, fret, all of that over things & most are on medications of some sort to help them deal with it. I have been there & done that since I was 18 years old. I find that it is not worthit for me. Either the medicine dragged me down or made extremely hyper. I just want to be me. I am a happy go lucky person. I just want to take life as it comes with all the bumps/bangs/bruises that it gives & enjoy all of it.
I still remember the very first article that I read on here. I believe that it was about someone cleaning their floor about 100 times, that it was always dirty. I still find that rather humerous. If my house has dirt, so what, but if it has standing dirt, that's not good. It happens. There is going to be dirt & dust, might not be all the time, but it happens.
Any way, I just wanted to thank you all for all of your support here on gather.
One quick question..... How do you pronounce gather? Is it gather, like I went & gathered up the clothes? Or pronounce it like gay-ther?
Thank you all for putting up with my ramblings.

I'm sorry to hear about your grandpa and your losing the twins.
My mom died a little more than 2 years ago and I've lost 2 babies before they had much of a chance to grow inside me. It is hard.
The lesson you've shared is a good one.
I hope you always can remember. I know I forget as time goes by.
Thank you for this reminder.
I followed an online friend over to gather from another forum where she mentioned getting gift cards from here. I had no idea what to expect. This has been a wonderful experience and the gift redemption does not matter so much to me anymore. LOL.
Thank you all for your comments/support! It is truely valued.
