Thank you! I remember there was some problems for her and she also had others do the daily when she was on vacation. Just wondered why the OP kept the name and posted pictures.

I met many delightful people on the old post.

@Jackhound Mom~ It's my understanding, that the OP after Gloriajean was @Bellabutterfly. Sadly though, she (Bellabutterfly) became ill while undergoing chemo. Also, the last we heard, Bella's mom had been hospitalized and was very ill, so Bella was trying to get to see her mom.

@It was @Bellabutterfly's wish that someone keep the Positive Thread going while she was away, so I believe it was @butterfly123 that took it over for Bella. Since then however, butterfly123 had taken some time away to be with a dear friend that was ill...however, @butterfly123 has become ill herself, including her DH who had a tragic accident.

So as it is now, @cotton4me and @SleeplessinSD have both been kind enough to keep the thread going... and all because it was Bella's wish that we don't let the thread go.

And again, if I'm not mistaken, @Bellabutterfly started this thread to continue on @gloriajean's Positive messages. Yes, it's mostly all inspiritional pictures because that's what had been decided when the thread was started.

HTH

Thank you for answering me, you are so thoughtful!

I don't know where the posters get the cute pictures but I will look in again. I'm terrible at getting things on here

but always learn something and enjoy all the positive posting in all forums!

Waving to GJ and her past and present posters! Wishing all blessings and good health!

Jackhound Mom - I'm glad you liked that Daily Positive Thread, but they changed the rules and I got a call from Melvin at QVC saying that nothing religious could be on there anymore. It was going for nine years, and then I had to stop it. Lots of nice posters I've met on there, that's for sure.

I don't come here often, but I did this morning and saw your post and thought I'd respond with what really happened.

@gloriajean ... I don't know if you remember me from about 5 years ago. My nic then was LoveMyHandbags. I used to stop by once in a while. I was always so amazed how you wrote such beautiful inspirational thoughts every night. I wanted to stop by and say thank you (and Hello!) for having that beautiful thread. I hope you and your family are well.

It has changed. I liked to read it in the past, but now it is just a series of pictures that I see on Facebook.

@AuntG ... I really enjoy the pictures with inspirational thoughts that these kind ladies are leaving. I'm going through a hard time right now so I really enjoy reading these. Gloriajean put a lot of time into that thread. I'm very happy these dear ladies are keeping this thread going. They may be just pictures to you that you see on Facebook, but they are special to me just the way they are.

Edited to add ... The moderator checked this over before allowing it to post. In doing so some sentences' font size are now tiny and I don't know how to change it back.

@EastCoastGal~ I just texted Gloria to let her know about your post. I'm sure she'd want to see it and I just didn't want her to miss it.

@LIG1 .... How nice of you to let Gloria know. Thank you so much. She is a wonderful lady!

She would only remember me by my former nic. "LoveMyHandbags".

@EastCoastGal~ I mentioned your former nic to Gloria in my text message. She hasn't gotten back with me as of yet, she's most likely babysitting her two adorable grandbabies. Twin girls!

@EastCoastGal~ Yes, I believe they're about a year and a half now.. so sweet and as precious as can be! I heard from Gloria and she said she'd be here in a little bit. She just got home.

Finally got here now!! LoveMyHandbags - so nice to hear from you again!! Yes, many wonderful posters I've met on the Daily Positive Thread, now they won't let me even give my email out so I can still communicate, grounds for banning! My oldest daughter presented us with Identical Twn Girls 16 months ago and we've been helping to take care of them since they were 2 weeks old and what a beautiful blessing they are to us!! My daughter has Ehler's Danlos Syndrome, which is hypermobility, and with that she has severe back pain, so she needs someone there to help her. She also teaches at the University here, part time because of her disabillity. We keep praying she gets some relief. Thanks for letting me meet up with you again!
