Just wanted to post a *quiet* 'thank you' in my journal...

For years, I was a regular DU donor. Never did I donate a fortune, but I did try to give something every year.

Someone, somewhere on DU, donated on my behalf. I never like to take credit for something I didn't do (or be blamed for the same, for that matter), but I'm not writing this to merely point that out.

I'd also like to say 'thank you'.

Sure, like most I'm pretty financially strapped. But I did give to my NPR station this year and might have been able to come up with something for DU too. With honesty as a grave fault of mine, I can say I've really been on the fence about it. I love DU, but there have been 'things' that have made me think about whether to stick around. I think I likely would have come around to donating something, and I may still do so.

You're probably among a small, tiny handful of people that can get past my acerbic nature and someone I've had a good discussion (or row) with, and I think I could go through that short list of folks and you'd be there. But I won't, and I'd just like to say 'thanks' for giving me another reason to stick it out.

(shhhh! Journal only!)

2. Love the smiley configuration!

Explain it all with a sigh."

3. apropos, I thought
and actually, I thought about "stealing" your journal entry for my own because I understand exactly how you feel.

I'm just beginning to see...

4. I confess...
I gave you a heart...

Because you are dear to me!

5. If I told you that you were on one of
my favorite counting fingers, I hope it wouldn't bother you.
