You are such a sweetie! Looking forward to when we can be back in TV together. Can hardly wait to show you my social cards!

It is comforting to know that you understand exactly how those of us who have to leave are feeling. I can't thank you all enough for being blessed with your friendships. Leaving TV is very tough. Ask Fireboy who has been watching my emotional roller coaster with amazement. He keeps saying "I've never seen you like this". But then I've never found a place or people I loved as much as TV.

Bare, Nonie, HB, Mom2Five, and other residents of our hearts,
I really hope to be arriving in TV when you return. I think this will call for a huge celebration...the details of which we can all work out together over the summer.

So instead of dwelling on how bad we all feel let's start planning the party.

How about a Masquarade, with huge costumes and feathers and hats. We can decorate our golf carts like chariots and go the the ball on the arms of our handsome escorts.

Or we could have a "Round-up". Appropriate title...We can all dress in western wear and have a huge BBQ and line dance in our driveway...we could even have a calf roping contest ie (parrot roping) and try to lasso Bright's Parrot atop her golfcart while it is moving.

You get the idea...lets start planning. The anticipation will help the sorrow to go away. At this age we should not waste a single day being sad, or wishing for tomorrow.

Love you all, I already miss everyone because we already left. I swear there is something in the water...just not possible to fall in love so fast and so hard with strangers at this age...but we all do. So nice to have a safe place for this side of our human-ness to be dusted off and encouraged to grow.

The more we love, the more loving we become. How nice it is and how lucky we all are to be connected to a place like TV.

Susan, As I said in a Femme post, let's look forward to a party! It's always more fun to anticipate something. We're on the same page, so I'm volunteering to help plan. We can have a "Homecoming Dance" and really rock out! Count me in!The Villages Florida

Chelsea based on your posts I think we are on the same page often. I think we should plan several full-blown events and then choose from the array and do one a month until we run out of ideas...or energy. ;D

P.S. You and anyone else who isn't in TV will just have to fly in for the events. Just that simple.

Yes, Susan I think we are on the same page! A month of events sounds good to me. We'll really plan ahead. Bright, why can't you be here??? Well ladies, I like action, so count me in on anything you have in mind. :bigthumbsup:

Chels

If not retired, I'll be there if it coincides with my school's vacation times.

I need to get my financial planner over here ASAP...my hopeful retirement date is end of school year 2009! Keep your fingers crossed I can afford to do it then.

Susan, Chels did I hear party? :hot: :hot:
We just love parties. count us in for planning a party. 040 040

Since we love to party over the years we have collected really weird stuff and used these items for themes to have a party. Missed not having our Annual Ground Hog Party this year.

We love to party - love the fun of planning, buying and everything that goes with having a party.

I am so excited.

Love ya,

HB

Chelsea, dear, I didn't mean a month of parties...I meant a party every month. Too much of a good thing makes it a bad thing. A party every month welcomes people to TV with something special no matter when they arrive in TV. Besides, Chels I don't think I could enjoy, let alone handle that much partying.

Bright, there are schools in Florida. : Teach there. :bigthumbsup:

HB theme parties need lots of "stuff" and lots of planning. Should be lots of fun. Personally I am not going to be involved for about a month or so. Need to get my house on the market and sold and get moved to TV. Anything that keeps me from accomplishing that has to be done by others right now.

All...I love to talk about it and think about it, but it only takes me minutes to plan and a couple of hours to prepare for really big parties. Not because I cut corners, but it is just a really easy thing for me to do. So if I don't keep up with you just go on ahead, I will catch up or just be your guest. I'm not much into "control" and am just as happy being your guest, as I am planning a party for you.

There is so much fun to be had in TV. ;D

:2cool: Johnny! You'd make a great D.J. You're on!

Susan, yes I agree a party once a month is just right. I couldn't handle a month of parties either! I'm just trying to look forward because I'm so sad right now with everyone leaving. The Villages Florida

Parties once a month sound great to me.
