My 70,000th post!

I am sitting here with my coffee, marveling at the number, and the journey it represents. So I just want to take this moment to thank all of you here for sharing this journey. DU has been, and continues to be, my sanctuary in these turbulent times.

My dear friend Betty, who was an active member until we lost her to breast cancer, brought me here, early in the horror that was the bush years, and here I have been ever since. From our amazing admins to all the incredible members here, THANK YOU. You teach me so much, in every field. You make me laugh. And I share this with my friends.

They often ask, Where do you find all this stuff?" And, of course, I tell them. DU, the best place on the web.

So, sister and brother members, thank you. We have so much work to do cleaning up the traitorous murderer's mess, but Here we find strength, comfort, courage, laughter and love.

Be safe and well.
