This Board Is 6 Years Old, Today

Post by tex »

Hi All,

Well, we did it. This board has survived for one more year, so as of 11 am, Eastern Daylight Savings Time, it is now officially 6 years old. :gathering: :yahoo:

Love,
Tex

I'd love to throw us all a (GF/*F) party - it's a terrific accomplishment to create a forum like this and keep it going, and I'm honored and grateful to be here.

Thanks for marking this milestone, Tex, and for so much besides.

Love,

WOW!!! that's a lot of posts - and so few of them are mean-spirited, spam, or any of the other unfortunate flavors that percolate through the world of online connectedness. CONGRATULATIONS on that as well, Tex. As you know, I am firmly convinced that this says a great deal about you, our gracious host.

I wonder when we'll hit 100,000 posts... I'd better start researching GF/*F recipes for that excellent celebration as well. I bet we get there before our 13yo car hits 100,000 miles (city car... lots of wear & tear per mile).

Thank you, Tex!

Hard to believe that 6 years ago I was in diapers and desperate...LOL I have no idea what threw me into remission last September but am enjoying every day of it.

As an aside, was at family doctor the other day and asked him if other patients were finding remission arriving suddenly...and replied that they had. Several patients had said..wow.. now there are drugs to treat us and remission just happens after years of misery....

Happy Birthday, y'all!
