Over 5000 posts!!

joanlawson

Hi

I've just noticed that I have passed the 5000 mark with my posts on here. I wonder how many hours on the computer that equates to :?:

Maybe I am addicted :!: HELP :!: :!: :shock: But I really enjoy this site, and it has opened up a whole new world of friends to me, so I wouldn't want to give it up now.

Thank you to all those people who respond to my threads and posts so regularly. I get a tremendous amount of fun from your replies, and it is a great pleasure to know you. You all help to keep me sane at times when Arthur is trying to drag me down, so thank you once again.

Joan

Our pleasure joanlawson! I love your threads, they are always interesting, creative and thought-provoking. I've passed 2000, probably near 2500 now. It's amazing how one can lose time on here! I didn't realise how lonely I was, trying to cope with arthritis and being the only one in my circle who had it. These forums are a joy, and you are defnintely one of its treasures! DD

I've just read my number - how the hell did that happen?!

joanlawson

Hi DD, and thank you for your kind comments. I see that you have posted 3140 times since last April, so you are well on your way to beating my number since Feb 2009.

You are probably right, Del, but I do have another life besides being on here :!: I am a social animal, so belong to various groups, including my local A.Care group. Today, I should have been at a BBQ for my local group, but it has been cancelled because of the rain. Hence why I am on here now.

Congratulations Joan

And you should be pleased that most of your posts were nice or funny or helpful too

DD will lap us all soon and it wont be too long I reckon I think we will be happy to let you get in front. You knows more than me too

Love and hug

Hi Joan.
You are a lovely intelligent lady who write's good posts that are very interesting and they make you want to read them and then answer them.
i have to come to this site every day because the people are so helpfull and friendly.
when you are on this forum it helps you with the pain,
i wonder why the keys dont run out of ink.

Thank you Toni and Joan for your kind replies.

Toni, I see that you are edging up towards 8000 posts, so I still have some way to go But I think you are a year ahead of me.

Joan, you are right that coming on here is a distraction from pain, and we can always find supportive and kind people like you to chat to.

Well, I`m all behind........Shurrup Toni!!!!!!

I joined just weeks after Joan, and I`ve only done about 1,350 posts. What`s Miss J got to say?....Detention?

Well done Joan..........Ange.x.

That's the problem tho, my lovely frog. I want to be doing the drinking, drugs, gambling, smoking and finding new loves, (past ones are past for a reason) but thanks to PA I haven't got the energy, or the enthusiasm, or the looks. 'DD: The Cougar Years' is a book destined never to be written. Which is probably just as well!

Don't write yourself off just yet, DD :!: :shock: The body might be a bit weak, but I'm sure the spirit is strong. Anyway, it's what's on the inside that counts, so I tell myself :!:

Hi Cris

Well, don't be embarrassed because your posts are always lovely to read. Anyway, that's what this site is for, isn't it :?: Some of us use it more than others, but that's OK in my book

Hi Joan,

Your too kind... half my post are sponsored by banging music and pregabalin I try to help and support people and then I go off with the fairies..... talking of which I need a Brownie my Nan always said my mother was a changeling She may have been right actually

Keep posting but I shall be embarrassed at how many I have done in such a short time...... So much junk in my head as well xx

Toni I am still chasing you! xx

DD your not written off here flower. ((())) xx

ninakang

5000 posts? Yeah, but half of them were posted to keep Rehab in order

That's a point, how many have I done? Will have to see when I've submitted this.
