Well almost a year on since starting this thread and it's no longer a 'placeholder'.  We DID it! :) :) :) 8) 8) 8)  met everyone today and had a great time. 7 women in my car, lots of laughter and talking.  Great company, food and views.

After 3 years I finally met some of you! :) :) :) It's amazing this bond we share on the forum with people we've never met before.  It felt like we did know each other and were just catching up after a time away.

Hugs,
SP

What a fabulous weekend with a group of wonderful, warm compassionate, loving people. So much fun, so many laughs, so much wisdom.

I am rejuvenated, refreshed and relaxed and feel empowered to face whatever the future holds.

Til next time xxxx

Well what a weekend!!  We are probably banned from all venues for having way too much fun and laughter.

I felt an instant connection to all of you and will carry you in my heart until the next time.  The MLCers are truly missing out on having some amazing people in their lives.

We did have a discussion about who told their H or W about the weekend and what they were REALLY doing.  There was a mixed bag of excuses and explanations on that one.  We came up with what we thought would be a reasonable letter to leave for the MLCer to explain things very clearly.  This one should leave them wondering and looking like :o :o ??? ??? :o :o ??? ??? :o :o ??? ??? :o :o ??? ??? :o :o

The letter should be read with acronyms not known to the MLCer,

So here goes:

Dear H,

I am going to GAL with HV, P&D, GD, HC, & LO.  We are having a LBS/MLC meet-up but will not be discussing your EA/PA, IMHO it's NOYB anyway. BTW, you will have to look after the needs of S12, D13, S16 & D17.  There is plenty of cake to eat in the pantry as I know you love to eat this.   Try to keep away from OW and give some thought to some IC for your FOO issues while I am GAL. 

I hope this is not TMI  for you.

Your W (STBXW)

Well, that explains things ;D

We are all feeling like this after the weekend 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)

Until next time.........................

Ha ha ha Summer! Even funnier than the rehearsal!

Oh my goodness it was such a wonderful weekend. It was so good I came home last night feeling like I'd had a religious experience, truly. (And I still feel that way)

Thank you all so very, very much for the gift of your company and fun and compassionate wisdom and humour.

Love you all heaps, special friends.

I'm just coming back to earth after that fabulous weekend! Thank you all for the chance to accompany you for a little step of your journey and for all the laughter and wisdom and insights....and for the wonderful generousity of our Aussie hosts.

 It was a brilliant weekend, over far too quickly but the memories will stay for ages  :) 8) 8)

Summer, your post is brilliant! And your H is an idiot...another thing MLCers have in common  ;D ;D ;D

Love and big hugs,
