I miss our little corner of the internet sometimes guys. Hope all our well. Me, too. I check in here periodically but never feel like I have anything novel to say since every day feels like the same survival game. Ditto. My life is full of insanity that I can't share on the internet. So I don't know how to spur a conversation. We could schedule a "party" where we all come here at the same time and actually have a conversation.

I almost posted in here last night to ask if anyone else is having trouble with blue dawn as a homemade hand foaming soap lately. It didn't feel right to revive this thread just for that though LOL.
I'm still a big time lurker on Blinds and dipping my toe in some General Discussion boards. Shutterfly sent memories of my now 8 year old in cute fluff, and it hit all the feels.

Other people chime in.

Glad to hear I’m not the only one that misses this.

What about Thursday 12/8 at 8pm EST? We might need more lead time with how slowly everyone rolls through here, but I want to throw a date out there and see if it sticks. If 5 people chime in and say that that works, we'll go with that. If that doesn't work say which of these work for you: Monday 12/12 8pm EST Tuesday 12/13 8pm EST Thursday 12/15 8pm EST
Or propose another time. Or we can digitally GTG more than once. If you're off-board friends with a former CD Boarder, tell them to join us.

This is timely for me because I almost started an old fashioned attention getting thread yesterday to see if we could strike up some new convo. I miss you guys! I can’t do Thursday the 8th but I could do the following week for a live convo. Any evening but I need to start at like 6:30 cause I go to bed early.
Or, alternatively, maybe we could designate a certain day with the whole 24 hours for starting and participating in new threads. I know we all have different schedules and we always did. I think it’s quieter in here because there’s hardly any new threads to respond to lately. If we make a certain day “the party” and everyone agrees to participate to the max, we could rekindle a lot of interest!

I like the 24 hour "party" since I'm one of the few west coasters. 8pm EST is dinner time here 😉

Yes I like the all day party thing! Maybe during that day we can find a time many ppl may be around in the evening at the same time, but 8 pm is def not a time I can check out onto my phone without a spouse and children being all in my grill.
Which could also mean....hey everyone just start some random attention seeking threads...whenever.

Usually at 8 pm I'm slugging through getting the kids to bed. My best bet at being here is during the work day lol but yes I miss you all so let's plan something!
