BUMP

Thanks to everyone who voted for the ugly reject room and helped make it a success

I am honored to even have the thread mentioned let alone in the top 5.

I believe every person who starts a thread is a brave soul. They not only put themselves out there, but basically commit to keeping it going every day ..

For my thread I want to thank Charles as well, becuz I found myself not being the attentive hostess I should have sometimes, getting involved in other threads I had vested interest in as well.

As to Liz, Pete, Joy's and especially Merle's .. YOU GUYS ROCK ON WITH YOUR BAD SELVES .. you are the bestest evaaaaaaaaaaah.

I ALSO WANT TO THANK EVERYONE WHO VOTED FOR " TIGER'S & FALLEN'S COFFEE HOUSE "

I WANT TO THANK EVERYONE WHO HAS STOPPED IN TO SAY HI, AND HAVE A CUP OF COFFEE WITH US OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS, YOU GUYS & GIRLS ARE THE BEST

THANKS AGAIN.

TIGER & FALLEN WE LOVE YOU ALL

As stated before you were the inspiration to all the other threads so you STILL come out on top Richard!

Congratulations to all of you, cause you're all winners in my book!

as are all the posters!

BUMP

I agree congrats to all...

Congrats to the winner!!

BUT LONG LIVE THE BEARDY HOUSE!!

Posting this here too just so it's clarified:

Seems my being willing to come in to the "Time to Vote" thread and thank people who were sweet enough to vote for the Happy Place thread was totally misconstrued by 1 or 2 people. I was raised to show appreciation. That's all it was for God's sake.

And the fact I started a thread to explain why we started our houses was just because some of the people had very cool stories behind theirs.

So I would like to clarify .. I was shocked my thread was even ON the list .. I was totally floored to see it got enough votes to be an actual viable option for top 5.

I don't ever see my threads as that popular. I should stick with just posting in others. But sometimes I get a brainstorm and go with it.

All that to say .. I am not, according to a rumor, full of myself or my posts or my few threads or anything else. I do not think I am popular, nor do I wanna be. Don't care to be.

Life is too short for all this BS.

Things get so twisted on line .. but anyone who truly knows me knows I am NOT arrogant just confident in who God made me to be.

End of story. Thanks for the space to share ..


(and please leave me or my threads off any future contests .. LMAO)

Awww I got an honorable mention... I'm feeling so speshul right now

Congrats to everyone!

You all make me smile EVERY DAY!!!

3rd place? I can live with that

Thanks to everyone who voted

And big thanks to all the regular posters - it's you guys that make a thread what it is
