We miss people when they leave, but sometimes they just drift away and in the busyness of the everyday DSP, sometimes we all don't notice, and that is sad...

So, if you miss someone, post here and we can PM them and let them know they are loved and missed!!

emandlivsmom is a school teacher near me. I saw some posts by her earlier this year (maybe near the end of last school year) but I know she's gonna be SUPER busy right now as all of our kiddos head back to school Thursday!

Cybergram and SusanG should be added too

per Sandygb.

I'm not trying to track anyone, or stalk them, just let them know we miss them. I don't care if they are CT at another site or are gone from DSP for a good reason, I just care that they KNOW we miss them!!

So if you see anyone on the list, PM them or email them just to say you miss them and WHY!! I'd love to see their happy faces back on the site, for sure, but I'd really like to know that, when they go to bed tonight, they have a warm fuzzy inside because someone misses them!

Another really nice thing to do, to let people know that they are being thought of, is to go into their galleries and comment on some of the older layouts. tt might have been a while, and you may have already commented, but that's okay. Remind them of their talent and how much you'd like to see more of their layouts!

Lynnie! What a wonderful idea! I sort of "lurk" at times and don't post, but I always come back eventually!

Maybe some of these are like that too! I'm sure I saw Lindyroz here recently - but perhaps it was an old LO. I miss Kim (yvspeck) too, after meeting her last year! Hope she comes back soon.
I love the idea of commenting on the LOs - a flood of nice emails might get them back!

I really feel that one of our strengths is our community and the friendships we develop here! I know that when I've been feeling a little out of sorts, it has been the caring of the people here that has really got me through some of them. We have such amazing friendships and we should be there for the people we have come to care for!

Remember yhalos? She was a lovely lady and the Grannies supported her through NKOTB when she started. She suffered from poor health I remember, but I think she either became a CT or a designer elsewhere. When her birthday comes up in the DSP birthday list I usually send her a PM...I will send her one today...just because !

Wen2Tap...a beautiful NZ lady who did amazing LOs, I wonder what she is doing now?

Sallyscrapper!!! When I was a timid little newbie, she was one of the ELITE! and she lived only a half hour from me at that time! I see she made a post in Lauren's thread back in April after being AWOL for 4 years so maybe she is still be interested in digiscrapping.
I will PM her too. I regret so much that I was never able to meet her IRL when we lived so close.

Thanks for the "warm fuzzies" Lynnie and Jill for the pm about this thread. Thanks for including me in your missing friends list. It means so much to me.
I CT elsewhere, and see many of the other "missing friends" out there in the big digiworld, some as designers, others as CT's and scrappers posting LO's.
Yes, DSP used to be the best place to hang out with friends and I do miss so many of you too.

Carma · 09-08-2010, 05:20 PM

Well ladies, buZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzz I hope this bee will stay in touch, I am getting ready for a 4 day week end then I will try to become a good BEE and get back to the Grannie thread....life has been so crazy the past 2 1/2 years...illness and deaths etc. I need my Grannie friends all the more. Love you all Carma The Sun Will Come Up Tomorrow!!!!!

Gosh I guess it's been so long I have a new computer and Firefox had to ask me if it wanted to remember my password! I do lurk here once in awhile and comment on a layout or two. I do miss DSP, and the Grannies, and Sunday Scrappers, but I am keeping very busy. I design at least 4 kits a month for another site, and I am ve-e-e-ery slow. I manage the building I live in now, and my DD has been going thru a very nasty divorce and I've been her number one supporter, babysitter etc, etc, you all know the story.
Anyway, miss you lots, remember you all with much love, maybe one day I'll 'retire' again and scrap again.
