First of 2010! Let's pour some sugar on....

Gerrie!!! 

 I know you declined being our sugar recipient before but we all love you and you deserve it! 
 

Re: First of 2010! Let's pour some sugar on....

  • To my favorite Gerrie!  2009 brought all sorts of wonderful and awful to you, but you stayed strong and I admire you so much for that.

     I can't wait to meet up with you again and have some mini hamburgers and cocktails.  You're such a great beautiful woman with an awesome sense of style and humor.  You're so easy to talk to about anything!  Not to sound like a kid, but if I could have picked my own sister it would have been someone like you!  

    Thanks for always being there for meeeeeee.  Go Gerrie!
     

  • Gerrie!  how perfect

    of course i have a special fondness for Gerrie b/c i've gotten to meet her a few times and she has even hung out with my hubby when i was home sick!

    gerrie is soooo genuinely caring and compassionate.  She is so strong as we saw her kick cancer's butt, though smart enough to know when she needs to be taken care of and allow her amazing husband (and family/friends) to help her.   she is beautiful, hysterically funny, and i know, one of these days when neither of us are knocked up, we will have some cocktails and just continue having the best time when we hang out.

    gerrie and paul are such a great match together, and are raising the coolest son.  I asked gerrie what her secret was to being a great mom and having an amazing son....i want to follow everything to a T!  :)

     

  • Yay, Gerrie!  Gerrie is an awesome person- you can feel it in everything she says. She cares about others and isn't afraid to share her opinion- a quality that I think gets far too overlooked among women. She loves her family and her job and her friends... and has kicked patarkis this year, in general. Dex is a lucky boy to have such an awesome mommy!

       I hope we can get together sometime soon Gerrie!! I know we'd have a blast!

  • Oh Gerrie! You're such an inspiaration! I can't beleive all you've been through and still your so positive. I love your outlook on life and how you still strive to be the best at everything you do no matter what is thrown at you. You're a great mom & Wife Paul and Dex are so lucky to have you in their life and I'm sure they both know that!
  • Gerrie's got such a strong will and a huge heart it's hard not to love her. She was there for us all when we needed her even though she was suffering through cancer treatments. Dex and Paul are so very lucky to have her and I think we're all really lucky to have her in our lives.
  • Dang what to say about G-Dawg that everyone hasn't said or doesn't already know.

    Gerrie, the boards bicycle hahahah j/k! You seem to be one down to earth cat, that I would love to sit with at a bar and just shoot the s with.

    You are an awesome mom, and wife and we all know you are a killer cook.

     

  • Everyone else already said everything I was thinking--but Gerrie is such a strong woman!  She seems like an awesome mother and wife.  Her family is so lucky to have her!  I just love her outlook on life and everything, even when there's something to get her down, she looks beyond it.  She gives great advice on this board.  I don't know what we'd do without her!

  • Gerrie- is such an awesome person. I have had the pleasure of meeting and and as sweet as comes across on the board she is even sweeter in person. She has an amazing outlook on life and even with all the crap thrown at he, she is so positive. She also seems like such an amazing mom and wife. I can't wait to spend more time with her.
  • Gerrie Gerrie Bo Berrie, Banana Fanana Fo Ferrie!!!

    Gerrie, to me, is one of the top girls in this group.  She is smart, funny, independant, and has common sense.  She seems like she's be tons of fun to hang out with.

    She is also a very strong woman to go through what she's gone through and come out on top and so positive.

    I would like to eat her cooking someday. ;) 

    Also, Gerrie was one of the ones to email me privately when B was born and I was having a rough go of it.  That meant A LOT to me. ;)

    Plus, she's Gelisa's other MOMMA!!!!! ;)

    xoxoxo to Gerrie!!!!

  • Even though Gerrie and I come from two different worlds.. seeing as her family is a red sox nation and mine its yankees through and through.. i still <3 her. :) She's funny, smart, always has the best cooking/recipe advice. I'm pretty sure everything has been said already.. what's not to like or admire about Gerrie?! She's one of  the strongest, most positive women i've come across!

  • I really can't find anything else to say that hasn't been said already! I completely agree with every comment.. down to the last word. You're such an inspiration for what you've been thru this year (well, last year). And you were still able to be an awesome mom and wife... and still come by here and give out some of the best advice! I can't imagine this board without you a part of it.

  • Gerrie is strong, compassionate, and honest.  Those 3 qualities make her an admirable mother, wife, and person.  I would love to meet her one day and I wish I could cook like she does.

  • Gerrie is one of the nestie I have to meet!!!!  Gerrie's picture could be next to the word STRONG in the dictionary!  Talk about a woman who went through so much in 2009 and came out with the best attitude!  I admire Gerrie's strength! 

     

  •  

    Considering I have only met only one Nestie - I wish that I could meet everyone but most of all Gerrie! I would love to hear her accent and the fierce woman in her come out!  

     She is always there for everyone on this board and a wonderful mother to Dex and wife to Paul. Everyone is so proud to be on Team Gerrie!

  • Awww, you are so freakin awesome Gerrie! I hope to be brave, kind, loving, strong, compassionate, giving, a great mom and a great wife like you one day =) I hope that 2010 brings you a much better year. Oh, and if you feel the need to cook for me one day I sure wont turn it down Wink
  • You are awesome Gerrie!  You are one tough momma, I would love to sit down and share a cheesecake with you sometime!  You rock babe.
  • Gerrie you are a strong person and you alway have great advise!

  • I just love Gerrie's sense of humor!  Its crude, sarcastic and absolutely hilarious.  I'm glad there's someone else around here w/ my sick sense of humor!

    And I always wanna do the Jerry Springer chant for her.

  • Everyone has covered pretty much everything, but I still wanted to contribute.  Gerrie is funny, sweet, courageous and thoughtful.  I love stories she contributes like the one about Paul the other night or the pole toucher of yore.  I'm glad you have continued to stick around the board!
  • I love you girls. I really love you all so much. Thank you for these wonderful words and for making me cry, laugh and cry again. I would love to meet each and every one of you!! Elisa, can you hook me up with a frequent flyer card or something? LOL.  THank you all so much.

     

  • I love how Gerrie seems to remember everything about everyone Smile
  • Great pick Nami! All of the ladies have said many wonderful things that fit you to a tee. I love the Jerry Springer comment, that had me bust out laughing.

    But I'd like to add that I think Gerrie is the heart and soul of our April board. She defines strength, she's a classic beauty, she has so much warmth and kindness, sassy Red Sox fan and humor like no other . You have experienced so much in 2009, that I only see the positivity and greatness to follow you for twenty-ten. xoxo

    Team Gerrie all the way!

  • I am so happy that I was able to check the board today and see this post.

    Gerrie is one of the most amazing people I have ever met.  She always, always has a kind word and great advice.  She is a not only an amazing friend, but she is a true inspiration.  She gives 100% in everything that she does...whether it be her family, her job, or her friends.  I hope to someday meet you, Gerrie!  I think we would truly hit it off!
