Smile Happy Anniversary Dear Meg

Happy 7th Anniversary!

7 years? 7 years. Count em' one, two, three, four, five, six, SEVEN!

Where are those "statistics" folks now, huh?

Congratulations on an amazing feat.

And thank you so much for sharing your vast maintenance wisdom, knowledge and everything else that you give so freely, kindly & articulately here at 3FC. I feel absolutely blessed to have crossed paths with you.

Congratulations once again and I look forward to sharing (in whatever small way) this upcoming year as you head into your 8th year of maintaining. Way to go!!!!!

Yay Meg!!!!

Random thought, since Robin mentioned statistics. Is maintenance like cancer? I mean, with cancer, the general wisdom is that if you are cancer-free for 5 years you are probably going to be cancer-free for life. If you maintain for 5 years are you more likely to maintain for life??

Congratulations and thank you for being my buddy on this winding journey

paperclippy- I personally don't think it's like cancer- we have to consciously work every day to stay in remission. Never take it for granted!
