So.... Graciegirl....I do have a question....
What have you gotten out of TOTV?

For me, someone who said she would NEVER ever get into that crazy social networking thing,....I have gained so much. I have met some wonderful people....and made friendships that I know and hope will be lifelong friendships....worth more than all the money can buy.

I have had "free entertainment".....laughing, smiling and enjoying some of the posts.

I have felt sad, as well. I know the posters who resent the success that the Morse family has.........and they are so very eager to tear down the Morse family. I know as soon as I see them post that it will be a negative post. I still don't "get it". Why? Jealousy....and the fact that perhaps they are not of same political persuasion?

I have gained a wealth of information about The Villages....more than words can tell. The pros, the cons, the what if's....yes, a wealth of information.

There are so many positives that I have received from being a member of TOTV.

How about you, Graciegirl....and how about the rest of you who post and read TOTV?
What have YOU gotten out of TOTV????
First this has to be a chick thread. But i didn't read of any restriction in responding??

Secondly I have learned some very beneficial things about people and about myself

Thirdly a gentle reminder. It doesn't necessiate because someone has an adverse opinion concerning the Morse family or for that matter The Villages that they are jealous, negative or any other slight remark about the person speaking. It may only mean that something has disturb the individual, usually on the business end, and the complaint may be factually correct and the offended justified in responding. Succintly if someone steps on my toes don't suggest that because I yelled ouch that I am beginning negative. So please don't mischaracterize a person's reason(s) for their complaint(s) and at least find out why they opine in that manner. Thank you.

Fourth what does SPOTD mean?
