THANK YOU JU!!

I have blogged on JU for just over a year.  Sometimes I write about personal things, sometimes the past, sometimes fiction, sometimes whatever.

While I am always eager and so thankful people read, I am certainly not in the top 10, or even the top 20, heh.  So while I know a few people read me, I never realized until today how powerful JU and the net can be.

I wrote STEP MONSTER .Link some time ago, and in it I mention a friend, named Drachel, a couple times.  I lost contact with her after the big brewha over twenty years ago.  (see link)

I signed into my email today and there was a note from her!.  Her husband found my blog by typing her name in a search engine!

WOW!  Double WOW!

Drachel emailed me and let me know she didn't think I made her sound like a good friend in that article! hahahahahaha  You can read it and decide. heh.  Then she went on to tell me about where she is and what she is doing.  We've re-connected.

She of course was a good friend to me, and I never forgot her.  Especially after what her father did for me.  

I always hear horror stories about the net.  (Mostly from my husband when he thinks I tell too much! hahahah)  But JU is a unique place I guess because I've met a regular blogger here in person, KFC.  And she rocks.  Yes, I know some of you may not think so, but she is a warm and generous person in real life.  I feel my life is better for knowing her.

I also have talked to some Juers on the phone and was blessed by each conversation.

Not to mention the emails I've traded with JUers.  Each and every time was a great experience.

All that to say, Thank you Brad and all the people who make JU, JU.

You've allowed me to reconnect with someone who I thought lost to me forever. 

And Drachel if you're reading this...YOU HAVE MAIL!
