Definitely all of the support in general that I've received during my divorce. It's been so amazing.
Specifically, laptop for inviting me up to her house and having a little Philly gtg not long after I left xh. It was so nice to get out of my parents' house for a bit and I appreciate that she did that.

@bettyhomewrecker33 and daisyheadmaizie have both been so awesome and kind to let me whine/vent about my work and health frustrations repeatedly. it really helps to have somebody to listen (other than my H), such a simple thing to do but it really does matter.
I have to say, the love I've gotten lately from lilafowler, vicky, annyong and tators couldn't have come at a better time. They have the biggest hearts and even when I haven't been forthcoming about needing support, they gave it to me. LOVE!
All of you have been so supportive and cheering me on with my whole weight loss surgery journey-and it really DOES mean a lot to me to know I have you guys rooting for me.
<3 <3 <3
I also have to give Lucy Honeychurch a lot of credit. I was on a Nest sabbatical when I was pregnant but she patiently "listened" to all of my MANY emails and texts about my pregnancy-and she was always so supportive when she could have been rolling her eyes because she had been there, done that. Maybe she WAS rolling her eyes (lol) but she never let me know. And she still puts up with me harassing her so there's that.
I also met such a great group of folks at the GTG-you guys don't know how nervous I was and you all made me feel welcome. You also put up with me when I started caning folks-THANK YOU!
Last spring when I was really depressed and had stopped posting for the most part because I was too down, poppy found a lone post I had done on my BMB and paged me to see how I was doing, how the pregnancy was coming along, and to say she missed me.
It really made a positive impact on me. I had spent most of my pregnancy sick, and feeling guilty as hell about not enjoying what ought to have been a really exciting time. That she could inject excitement and enthusiasm for my baby when I couldn't was something I was, and still am, grateful for.
@themommymonsterhas been so kind to me with my return to work, and understanding that I want to be home with G, and has assisted me in getting a job with the company she works for! (part time after school for now, possibly more later on down the road)
poppyseed has always been so helpful to me with my pregnancy questions, and giving me advice about having a newborn
tators and @utahlove13 are some of my ML bffs, and I love them sooo much
One of my first threads I started was about when I wore a pair of colored skinny jeans, and a girl at work commented on how people like me shouldn't wear pants like that.
...then I got three pages of support and kind words from everyone here. It was so nice, and make me immediately decide I wasn't going to be a creepy lurker anymore.
At Christmas time when I was bummed because we really didn't have the money to get Edmund the things I really wanted to melindafelinda sent him several things that he absolutely loves and a set of clothes too. One day I will do that for someone else that is feeling that way.

Well polka is my BFF4LYFE -- she was instrumental in me getting through the CF stuff. HI BESTIE! She was also the second person ever to know I was pregnant and I still have her "congrats" voicemail, lol!
Even though she wasn't even talking to me and was just talking in general, eddy really made a huge psychological impact on my body image post babies. I really can't thank her enough for putting into words what I needed to feel.
@utahlove13 has been fantastic and is a great friend! Another person I can't thank enough for being there for me.
I'm still a newb but the support that I got from everyone yesterday was seriously amazing to me. I've lurked long enough to see the tremendous about of love and support that is offered to people pretty regularly, it's why I wanted to start posting to begin with.
Puddle was more than gracious to me when I was really struggling a few months ago. She let me vent and was very supportive.
Jillian let me send her like a thousand PMs about starting solids and never acted annoyed with me. Lol.
I love talking with missusbee. I wish we could be irl friends.
And I want to be sisterwives with Lazerus. I just love her. We don't live too far from each other, so I hope to meet her irl someday.
Really, everyone is great. Especially since having M, I know I've posted some really annoying stuff and AWed a lot but most everyone here has been nothing but kind and supportive.
Man this post is awesome. All of these behind the scenes acts of kindness that we normally don't even know about. We really do love each other don't we.
Last year, through all of my troubles - my job loss (imoan said something to me that sticks with me to this day), my grandparents' deaths, my miscarriage, ttc stuff - you all have been so supportive and sweet.
kevin arnold, namasteak are my shoulders to snuggle in on and be a whiney baby and I cherish them for it.
ninjabridemom really helped the day I was freaking out about supplementing formula. I was feeling the mom guilt hard, but she made me realize that supplementing could be the best thing for us and my sanity.
Awwww sake and ninjabridemom I love you both. Sake has helped me so much with my diabetes and starting to TTC. Just having someone there that knows what it's like and I can ask those stupid questions too is awesome. Plus, she makes cute babies
I love ninja. omg. She once told me that she wished there were more Mormons like me, more open and honest and willing to have an honest discussion about the religion and that's stuck with me. She was also the first MLer I friended on FB haha

ALSO hisno1girl!!! For contacting the attorney general when I couldn't. And all of the support during Sandy. ALL OF YOU. When I had a tree in my house and no roof!
