As I look back at the last year of my life I can count so many blessing that I have to be so very thankful for.....but one blessing I have everyday is meeting up with my friends from mylot! It's been a total pleasure getting to know so many of you...to add you to my friends list and truly become good friends. So MY wish for the new year.....is that YOUR new year is filled with many blessing...that your wishes come true......and that you have a healthy and prosperous new year!

Hi Jill, That is so lovely of you and I totally agree as there are just so many lovely people here on the Lot (yourself included) and true friendships do develop. I know over the last year myself people have been so kind, friendly and supportive and I thank them all including yourself for being there through the tears and mainly lots of laughter. Have an amazing 2009 Jill. Huggles. Ellie :D

I agree with you. I havent gotten the chance to meet anyone other then you of course. Which we should do again soon so you can meet savanna. But i have made some other great friends and savanna has many people here who care alot about her. As for my new year its starting out good. Hubby became a training store which means $5000 more a year and thats the last step for him to get promoted to district manager.

Jill, That's wonderful that you have many things to be thankful for. And it's a very sweet sentiment to tell people on myLot how you feel about them. Thanks for the wonderfully warm wishes you are sending out to everyone. I wish all those things to you also. I'm sort of amazed about the whole myLot thing, that I can almost feel like I know someone whom I've technically never met. Happy New Year to you!

I know it is kind of crazy....to feel like you know people but then if you think about it we might know more about some poeple then their own families! I mean this is a place to vent....and share so we probably do know some people better then anyone else in their lives. None the less...it's a wonder way to meet people...and truly do feel like so many are very close friends!

Thanks for the wishes and I wish you the same. Yes, there are many blessings for me. The fact that I'm healthy and have all my senses intact is already a lot of blessings. The fact that no one got sick during the holidays is also a blessing. The fact that we were able to celebrate the holidays successfully is a great blessing, I could go on and on, and they would never end. God bless and happy mylotting.

Yes that is so true. To me, my best blessing has been an uneventful year. I may be called a pessimist but with so many bad things going on all around us, I can only be thankful that none of it has touched me or my family directly. I only wish that the coming year also passes by equally quickly and without any turbulence. I wish you, your family and friends a very happy 2009.

That is also my wish/prayer for 2009. I hve an excellent start on the beginning of a New Year. I have both my Grandchildren here for a sleep over. My daughter wanted to host a New Years Party at their place and I said, well why not have your friends in, I get to have you to myself for Christmas and I'll take the kids to my house for a sleep over and you can have them back New Years Day. She agreed so I have the kids. I made supper, did dishes, we made cookies and I promised them we could make buns after breakfast. It's 10:13 pm, the kids are tucked in to their beds and here I am!!! What would I do without myLot??? lol

You know Jill, this has been a very rough year for so many people, as you can read quite a few discussions about it. But this was one of the most nicest, sincerest one's I've read and I Thank You for that. It's 1:40 am, and reading this has made me feel nice and warm inside knowing there's people like you out in this world somewhere. Now that it is a brand spanking New Year, I hope that feeling stays with me for the rest of it. What you wished for all your friends, I'm sure, is what we are all wishing back to you. Take care and Happy New Year to you!
