Sooser's are generous and share their ideas, compassion, caring, love, wisdom, time, and personal experience -- not to mention their before/after and in between photos and ongoing projects which are very inspiring -- without my fellow Sooser's I am sure I would not have made so much personal progress this year.

I love SooSers because they are the most nonjudgemental people I have ever encountered. They are always positive and cheering in chat even when I dont feel good enough to actually clean. They dont kick me out because I am too tired or too sick, they just let me have the company anyway. Sometimes they actually get me motivated enough to do a few things anyway. It has helped many a blue lonely day. Love to you all.

what i looked for all of my squalorous hoarded life, i found here with you soosers; a tribe of colorful, kind, varied, wise people who are true friends and are there for each other no matter what.

Soosers are the ones who cheer you on and bandage your wounds in the battles other people don't even know you're fighting.

Soosers have made it possible for me to get my house in order (almost!) and keep it that way and did so with warmth, compassion, insight, humor and encouragement, which makes me WANT to keep my house in order.
Thank you all and a Blessed Holiday to everyone. This is the first vacation I've had since the early 1990's that I don't have to clean the whole house. I can actually enjoy my friends and family for a change.
I know I went over the 1 line, Hope. Sorry about that.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I imagine you won't be sided blind To discover me coloring outside the line
To honor, at first, our fine Celeste - As mod and admin, she gives us her best. She is funny and kind and not prone to wreck When confronted with puzzling questions, re: tech. And Lioness, too, who writes thoughtful threads Showing her courage where others won't tread.
There's Mimi, of course, perfection itself, Nursing unparented kittens to health. Echo gets points for making me feel That my mutterings' worth might even be real. There's Chaos, who charmingly married her kitty And DJ who's taught us to be wintry, but pretty.
Annie O made her sauce from tomatos, picked fresh (While someone on board must be fixing their creche.) Is it Script? is it puppy? or perhaps breakingfree? I suppose you'd make book if you bet 'twasn't me. Ipro has been caring for her aging dog. And Andrea's boys are raising a frog.
Moggyfan's in SanFran, and perhaps even Juni Whose name, for this season, is redolent -- croony. Miss Blue now has taught me some laundering clues While Mellow's a girl who was raised in the pews -- She has basemented, drivewayed and landscaped her dwelling -- If the angels are home-minded, surely they're kvelling.
BTT is a guy, even though he is here We're an off-kilter lot in this season for cheer. There's Chez in Australia, the Goddess of posting Her piping up often has kept me from toasting My willingness to hang out all my laundry On Blog for the reading of many and sundry.
There's London and Limey and dear angel-orphan And Laura and Eagle and Lilith and more fans Of SOOS, this remarkable site that began When Missy decided to take us in hand As Squalor Survivors site became a goner [To Pigpen we all owe oodles of honor.]
Of course to the Glory of Morning I'm calling And all of my sibs here, their stories enthralling. It's soon to be New Year and so I must wish The magic ability to handle each dish, Each dustball and rodent and bug in your sight -- Merry Cleaning to all -- and to all -- a great night!!

Aw! You are awesome, Hopey! Thank you, dear one! What especially made me smile was that I collect copies of 'The Night Before Christmas' from different illustrators, including a few regional and professional variations. This fits right in! !
