I miss Californiapeggy.....

[fNord]

I'm suffering from a weird problem (that I'll post about soon, seriously, any advice is welcome) but if Californiapeggy was here, the first response would begin "my dear fNord" and then be followed by sage like wisdom, and I would already be feeling a bit better about life in general, even if I didn't listen to the advice.

I'm not looking for rec's or even reply's, just wanted to say it.


Thank you Californiapeggy, you helped me through some of my most trying times

1. My dear fNord, CaliforniaPeggy is still here

She just posted here earlier tonight:

[fNord]

2. Thank you!

I've been in and out for a few......years.....

But have been back and haven't seen her anywhere.....
Thank you!

It makes my heart sing to know she's still here making DU and the rest of the world a better place!

[Rhiannon12866]

3. I like her a lot, too!

And, like most of DU, I'm happy to consider her a friend, LOL. I know she's in Pacific Time, so it's after midnight there, but you know now she's not on vacation, is probably just getting some well deserved sleep...

6. CalPeggy had a knee replacement about a month ago

so she's been busy recuperating from that. Knees are tough to rehab...and they don't get any easier the older you get!

4. she is a calming influence, yes?

yes INDEED

[fNord]

5. YES!

Yes indeed!

7. I miss the F-Bombs myself.

I'm just a sentimental old fool like that.

8. Peggy is one of a kind.

I always watch for (and love) her posts!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

9. Aw, thank you, my dear fNord.............

I am really touched at your lovely post.

I am indeed recuperating from my most recent surgery, having my right knee replaced. It's been tough.

But I do stroll through the Lounge now and then, and good thing I do! I wouldn't have seen your lovely post if I hadn't.

I will look for your post on the weird problem and if I feel as though I can make a contribution, I will.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

11. My dear irisblue...........

Oh, Fuck yeah!

14. Hope you're feeling better soon, CaliforniaPeggy!!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

15. Thanks for your good thoughts, my dear ailsagirl!

I am making good progress, according to my physical therapist!

[ailsagirl]

16. Great to hear!!

Now if only we can get the damn Oroville dam situation straightened out!!

17. Hi Peggy - I am keeping you in my thoughts.

Hope your recovery goes well.

[Rhiannon12866]

18. I was so glad to see you here, my friend!

When I saw this post, I got worried! I'm so pleased to hear your PT is going well. I have no doubt you'll be back to your post kicking self in no time!

[fNord]

19. My dear Californiapeggy....

Glad to hear from you, and can i just say Fuck yeah!

Btw, deja vu, I thought I just sent you a reply, but I guess that was in another novel. That happens to me from time to time....
Anyway....

I hope your knee is feeling well, as well as your soul...

Your words helped me through 43, were there when I pounded the pavement campaigning for Barrak, and I think the world needs you now more than ever. You are an inspiration, and I, for one, am better for knowing you as little as I do

Listening to Zevon's "Mohamed's Radio" as I write these words, so if I sound sentimental, well...

I wish you love and a speedy recovery

12. the reports of her demise were greatly exaggerated

thank goodness!

Get that leg up to butt kicking strength soon, Peggy!

And fNord, my best wishes for a good outcome.
