Good morning my beautiful DU family,

Last edited Fri Oct 31, 2025, 08:13 AM - Edit history (1)

As I take my final look around the hous to make sure everything is good, Cuddles just came over and said, not just yet, I need extra affection this morning. I gladly gave in.
I feel like Cuddles this morning as I embark on this very special journey to see Rory with the love and affection of my entire DU family to comfort me, encourage me and to make this trip even possible.
Thank you, and may this day be filled with opportunities for you to feel my gratitude, to feel my love, and to know in your hearts that today is so very special and that you made it so for me, like you do so often for others near and dear.
Have an amazing day and I'll keep you with me throughout this journey.
Thank you
Love, John

P.S. At 712am CST, I am officially on the way.
I've never driven a car full of so many souls.
I have to stop tearing up so I can see.
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you
