>I just wanted to send this to all of you. This time of year is always
so
>special and I wanted to share my thoughts and feelings with the list.
I've
>written a poem to help me do just that. Don't expect something great -
I
>don't claim to be a writer.

>I remember the days when I was always so bored.
>I remember the days when my heart never soared.
>I remember how lovingly my dad's truck I would drive.
>One day I'll own one - for this I would strive.
>
>One sunny day, while browsing in a car lot,
>I spotted a blue dak, to my heart it called out.
>The addiction was started, there was no turning back.
>So I needed another - along came "the one in black".
>
>Happiness filled me, but yet something was missing.
>Who can I share with, learn from, and who would listen?
>Surfing the net, the DML popped up, as the keyboard I touch.
>They welcomed me, answered my questions, and taught me so much.
>
>They are family, the bonding will not end.
>One member became my true love, another a friend.
>With the season upon us, I raise my glass proud and tall.
>To you, your families, and your Daks - the very best to you all.
>
>I know, I know.... some of you may think it's sappy, but it comes from
my
>heart. Christmas seems to be hitting me early. Jason and I are having
>Christmas dinner and opening gifts tonight at my mother's place. We'll
be
>leaving our dog with my mom, our 3 cats with a neighbor, and the
Dakota's
>locked up while we're spending the holidays with Jason's family. I'm
>starting to feel extremely guilty for leaving my mom alone this
Christmas.
>
>She truly is completely alone here for the holidays, but she says
she'll be
>fine. That doesn't lesson the guilt in the least. I guess I'll be
calling
>her and e-mailing quite frequently. This time of year can be very
>depressing when you're all alone. As I consider you all my Dakota
family,
>if any of you get a chance to send her a Christmas wish on the 24th,
I'm
>sure it will brighten her day. After all you are all adopted sons and
>daughters that she's never known. Her name is Maria Repas and her
address
>is repas@ican.net I'm sure she's going to kill me for this - oh well!
>
>Please remember to drive safe and sober this holiday. I would like to
know
>that you're all still here, healthy and happy when we get back to town.
>
>MERRY CHRISTMAS DML
