and all those wonderful people who helped me get thru some bad times and good times by answering my posts.!

I know I'm forgetting a lot of names ,Don't be offended if I leave someone out,please.
I DO remember How nice everyone was on this board and the IB and that's most important!.
( BTW,Have quite a few of the "Old-timers" here changed their User names?!)

Sorry, I've been away so long-
I finally got a new Computer and Cable modem, the old one was letting me get ON the boards,
BUT kicking me off when I clicked on a link-- so I could only read Titles of posts !
VERY frustrating!
Lots of family happenings(some good and some sad,like everyone, I suppose) and health issues too,
But I'm very Happy to have the chance to say hello to everyone again!

Hellooo!

HUGS, Marilyn AKA Maray AKA "RYAN'S GRAMMA"

Hi, you have been missed, Welcome back!

 

[snoopy]

Great to see you, Maray! I've been wondering about you, and so glad to see you pop up here this morning.

Have a great day! Come back and visit us when you can.

 

[Leota]

Maray!!!!!
How are you doing? You have been missed. You must have had ringing ears the other day. A few of us were chatting & wondering how you were doing. Hope to see you around here again. Miss your warmth, wit & postive outlook....
(there's a pix of Max I just posted floating around, he's HUGE & doing much better than last time we talked)

 

[Dan Murphy]

So nice to see you again, Marilyn!!!! I think you have a pm or email or two tucked in there somewhere from me to read still. Wow, what a sight for sore (or at least, still tired, eyes) on a Sunday morning. And what's up with that? You are a midnight DIS'er!!!!

You will need to bring me up to date when I see you at the World. I'll be there during your trip. How is Ray?? And yes, you are a lime green ribbon lady for sure. And yes, I guess it would be frustrating to just read thread titles, LOL.

Really looking forward to seeing you and Ray in a few weeks, Marilyn, please let me know your schedule and where you guys are staying.


Dan

[Kitty 34]

I didn't make your 'memory' list but HI anyway!!

 

[snuggles]

Its great to see you again. I'm glad you are finally able to read the whole post, not just the title. How frustrating is that!!!!

 

[Lynn CC]

Hi Marilyn!
It's great to hear from you

It certainly sounds like you are looking forward to your Dec trip!
Enjoy every minute of it, you deserve it

Don't you just love your cable modem?

 

[wdw4us]

I will be in WDW same time as you. Flying in on Friday 11/29 till Saturday. I wll not be attending DIS Con this time but hope to meet up with a lot of Dis'ers since so many will be down there.

Wear your ribbon and I'm sure someone will stop and say HI, it' could even be ME!

[Blondie]

As Leota has already said, several of us were just chatting about you the other day when we were talking about missing DISers, wondering where you were and hoping you were okay!

It's so good to see you here again!

 

[oldkicker]

Hi Marilyn!

WONDERFUL to see you here again.

I hope that all is well with you and yours.

I'll be there 12/2 for the week - perhaps we can cross paths sometime during the week. It'd be great to meet you.

 

[Nikole]

A blast from the past!!!!!!!!! How great to see you!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hope that your computer problems are at an end so you can join us again!

 

[Robinrs]

Marilyn!!

How could we NOT remember you??? After all those prayers and nights awake for your little grandbaby, I will never forget that!

Welcome back and God bless you!

--Robinrs

 

[DisMNagain]

Awww maannnnnn it's really nice to see YOU!

Yep..I heard your name mentioned the other day too! A few of us were reminiscing about people we missed and I believe your name was on the top of that list.


Sounds like you've had quite a time of it.

Hope to see more of you soon!

(I only changed my name a teensy bit..forgot my login information so made a new name and just added the 'again' part at the end. It's still me....same old, same old!)

Update on MY life
In the year that I haven't posted, my FIL passed away, we had to put our 15 yr. old Yorkie to sleep
Hearing the Dreaded news of losing Sweet ,courageous Sylvia.

I now have four cats that I rescued, plus found homes for 6 other Feral cats.
(Never having had cats before,I'm going to need help from all the cat people here.)
I haven't worked since last Aug, since Fibromyalgia has gotten so advanced,
some good days ,more bad days now tho.
My mother is in end stage Alzheimers,(so hard and sad to watch)
my father was diagnosed with Bladder cancer.
A few non- speaking months w/ sister which caused me lots of grief.
But Good things too!
We were very fortunate that none of our family or close friends were injured at WTC
It was a long day waiting to hear if they and many of our cousins and their kids were okay.
Many cops, and firemen in family .
My sympathies to those here who lost someone on that Horrific day.

My oldest son got married last Sept.15th, four days after the.
His then Fiancée worked in that area and her sister worked in WTC 7.
My New DIL and her family knew Father Michal Judge,he was their Parish priest,
when she was a child.
We did our best to celebrate their wedding amidst so much grief ,
and quite a few relatives were too afraid to fly in for the wedding,
(didn't blame them.)
But, I missed my brother,who lives in Atlanta.
More GOOD things:
9 1/2 Yrs Breast Cancer Survivor!
We bought a House for Our Grandson,Ryan(and his parents too,LOL)10 min. from us,
My Grandson ,Ryan is thriving.
Beautiful, loving child.He makes my life worth living.
My middle son, Jeff, graduated Summa Cum laude w/ 4.0 GPA in Political Science,while teaching Special ed. kids during the day.
Now he's in Grad. school.We're very proud of him (LOL ,He was the Problem child)
He went Backpacking across Europe this Summer by himself,
he had a great time,but mom was worried the whole month.
My 39 yr. old niece had a healthy baby girl,Now my sister has a grandchild too.

We Got to go to WDW in April!
