Okay girls (and guys) (and ducks!) - hahaha - as CL I am supposed to submit this board report. Alison and I had an agreement - she comes up with fun questions and polls, which I am never really that good at - and I write the reports. Only we have been so busy around here with 100+ posts a day that I never have time to write a report. And I do believe the powers that be at iVillage are too busy to ask for one!

So, I went to the CL area and requested the feature of "stickies" for our board so I can write a really good FAQs one that stays at the top - it is okay to dream, right? And I saw that they have an area to post reports. Uh oh - I better post one I said!!

So I posted a glowing report about all of us - it all just kind of flowed out - of how many posts we have every day - all the stages of dating we are in - and our hot threads, fun threads and my favorite quote. I guess I got carried away!! And then I read the other reports.

And there is not one other board on iVillage, in my humble opinion, that can hold a candle to us here. Because everyone here is so positive and helpful and supportive and knowledgeable and quality minded. We have an answer for everything between all of us. And I love that!!

So I had to tell you!! WOOOOHOOOO - way to go! WE must keep it up. Sometimes I get tired of it - as any of us would - but then I read something like a new mom who has kids with special needs - or a grandma at the end of her rope - or moon's story with the wonderful ducks and family - or anyone else's problems and dilemmas with so many solutions and tips that I learn every day - and the good stories - and the sad/bad stories - and I think what would we all do without this?

SO thank you to everyone!!

Yes, we have a great thing with this board. If one lets a few days go buy, catching up is quite an undertaking. But also, we can disagree about how someone may solve a problem, there are always a wide variety of opinions. It is only when someone posts confrontational, very negative opinions that we circle the wagons.
Did I miss a post about your trip photos? There are lovely landscapes and wildlife shots, but what is with the food pictures? Especially all those desert photos. Could kill a lot of diets with those, LOL.

Thanks for sharing that very wonderful post, Judy!


It's hard to tell you just how supportive and awesome this place is. I could have never imagined..and with such a wide range of views, yet everyone comes together for the common good...to support each other in this daily drama called single parenthood..and dating!


You are an amazing CL, and it never fails to enter my mind as I read your insigtful and thoughtful posts, "Well now Thats why West is a CL..she so has it together."


Thanks for YOUR thanks, and for being incredible!! We could not gel like this without you and Alison!!
