Arrow Hey All You MOD eR AtoRs... YO MODS WHATS UP


JUST WANTED TO GIVE YOU ALL HUGE
THANK YOU!
!THOSE DARNED MODS!
!THOSE DARNED MODS!
These Special People

Have Touched My Heart

I know you guys probably get a lot of Thanks and appreciation
throughout the year,
but I don't know if it's enough.
I know being a mod can be tough at times. Trying to decide what's has just got to go, or be edited etc. is tiring sometimes. And no matter what you do, Your probably going to upset someone.
Your loved and sometimes not so much.
You have to bite your tongue when the rest of us
don't have too in the same way that you all do.
I'm sure there are many times you come here just wanting to deal with your own stuff but get sidetracked with someone else.
I know how hard being on your end can be.
Or I've seen it anyway someplace else.
So I just wanted to tell you all that I really do appreciate all your hard work. Without you all many of us would be a scatterbrained mess, (who me?) ;-)
My life has changed so much since the day I fell into this large field you've got here. This holiday is kinda hard for me but I'm going to just appreciate the fact that I am Meth free 5 weeks 5 days. The times when I'm feeling like my life is a mess, I am just going to look at it as how much it is not a mess. Getting my life back to where I want it to be is tough. But no matter how hard it is, If it weren't for the help of this place, I am pretty darned sure my Christmas present would be a bag of meth and a head of suicidal thoughts. It's so not like that anymore.
For that I Thank you so much.
OH YEA,
And if my parents had any idea,
;-)
They would thank you more than you know.
It would have killed them to lose their baby girl.
I was thinking that would have been the best thing
for them a few weeks ago.
