I hope she doesn't mind BUT I have to share this with our sister boomers...so here goes!
Have you ever settled down at night, in your favorite chair to relax after a hard days work only to have the phone ring??
You answer hesitantly, thinking someone is selling something at 8:00 p.m. at night or something is wrong, but instead you hear a very sweet voice say, "Hi Chatty, this is ??? from BWS calling. Are you busy?" Then after a multitude of happy words were spoken this dear lady said to me. "I have read so many of your posts, they made me laugh, made me cry and mostly they've made me think."
I saw your website address, looked it up and found this number. I just wanted to put a voice with the words and face." I was calm sounding, but nearly in tears fron her wonderful and thoughtful words, someone just wanting to hear my voice WOW! Double WOW, WOW!
Now I have to say that this is the kind of surprise we should all have at least once, it was worth its weight(or mine, lol) in GOLD...
Thank you dear "DEE" for your thoughtful and especially pleasant phone call... A million HUGS!!

Awwwww ya'll....you're making me blush now. Stop it!!! Thank you Chatty for those kind words...I'm glad that my phone call made you feel so good. Gosh, that's nice to hear. I was looking at your website, saw your phone number and thought...hey, why not call? And I'm glad I did. You're just precious and we sure did have a good laugh and I enjoyed our talk. I met JJ at her book signing in Fairhope Alabama and I'm her number one fan...that and she's an Alabamian, like ich (that's 'me' in German...right Hannelore? or is it 'I'? Can't remember). I just saw the Boomer Magazine, JJ, and congratulations!!!! Wow...and Dotsie. I saw both your face on the back where it explains who's whom. Really cool. Thanks again, and I love you guys.

JJ, I am so lookiong forward to our meetring on day. When I was so very sick not too long ago and feeling scared and alone, there you were, calling to check on me and cheer me up. Well, thats exactly what you did, in so many ways. You words were so kind and cheery, only you could make someone in fear of dying, laugh so hard. Everytime after that call when I felt down or afraid, I thought of your call and it pulled me through. I will never forget you for that. You to me are an Angel here on earth...
I don't mean to sound all mushy, about these phone calls BUT truth is truth, and should be shared. HUGS!!
