Experience is what you get when you don't get what you wanted

I can’t listen to Rod Stewart without thinking of her holding his balls ;)
and I can’t listen to Bob Seger without thinking of her also (but she never got close enough to him to hold his – never mind you had to be there)

Just this morning as I did my morning ritual before the kids woke up I was thinking of her and missing her. Wishing I was there to share her upcoming birthday.

Duh she’s my best friend, that’s why and I love her man! _{sniff sniff}

Okay she’s awesome, really the best, she stands up for the underdog even when it’s not going to win her any popularity contests. She’s one of the most genuine people I know. She “gets” things most of us have troubles putting into words and reaches out with such compassion and understanding, bringing much comfort and healing. She is hilarious, wise, and just a great soul through and through. She’s goes into great denial about all these things because she’s also very humble. But now that so many of you know it, I know I will have loads of you backing me up on all this.

Happy Anniversary to my bud Dharma who inspired my “poetic” side with her little ditty to me, but mostly inspires me with her great friendship

Happy One Year Anniversary to the wonderful Dharma
She’s one in a million and deserves only good Karma
It’s been an amazing year with her here
She’s always happy to lend an “ear” (and her heart)

She’s wickedly funny
Her disposition “mostly” sunny
But now for a little secret
I’m counting on “you” to keep it

Once in awhile she can get in a “mood”
You can usually keep her happy with good food
But seriously now, she’s my dearest friend from long ago
She’s been there for me and helped me grow

I’m so delighted she came to this place
And put a smile on many a face
So here’s to another year with our Dharma
Come on people’s send her some good karma

Well it’s been a year
Since ’”MomW’s” been here
So lets all have a Beer
And give her a Cheer!

To celebrate
The sign up date
With all her Mates
So don’t be late!

Twelve months have gone by
(Well oh my!)
How fast time flies
When there’s virtual ties
For people like you and me!

Well there’s been Birthday Parties
With Hotties drinking Toddies
And Holidays of glitter and glue
With some on me…
(But mostly on you)

There’s been virtual tours
And virtual Friends
Virtual sharing
(With a whole lot of caring)
And Virtually everything in between

And if it weren’t for her
I wouldn’t be here
And Old Dharma would be deported
(Due to Dyslexic Department Violations)

So I’ll thank her now
(least I forget later)

And when the dishes pile up
And laundry overfloweth
And my family screams “No more!”
Just dial 911
For “MomW”
She’s the one!

She’s the reason that house keeping’s no fun
And the neighbours now have custody of my son
And the bills continue to pile up
But are never paid

It’s just too much fun being here
With all your friends so near!
So I think perhaps I’ll stay

So Congratulations My Dear
On making it a Year
(And now bringing me to tears)

You may not be my MOM
But you are my Friend
And I wouldn’t want it any other way!

_{A gift to you, from your “Slightly off Friend”
(Not to be confused in anyway with the Way Kool “Slightly off Club”)}

Where have you gone?!! Aren’t you every going to come back to us? We miss you!

And it’s only 4 days away form your 1 Year Anniversary on 43things!! We NEED to celebrate!!

You go put your party dress on, and I’ll go make a Pinata, and some kick ass dips! Tell me when your ready, and how many invites I should be sending out!

Who the hell is this “Flying Spaghetti Monster” anyway?!!....not someone I have met before now is it? _{as I don’t recognize the name}

My nickname in some parts is “Apartment B#$ch”

I think MomWoolsey looks to be a very caring & sweet person with a wonderful & kind spirit. I can imagine that in her life, she has done far more good to the world than she’ll ever realize.

I want to Welcome her to the fabulous community of 43Things/People/Places and hope she enjoys the company and encouraging support as much as I have.
