Hi guys,

Sandra asked me if I'd open this thread for all of our great Guiding Light fans and of course, I agreed, and came here immediately!

Please feel free to post about anything you'd like to discuss, off topic of the show and get to know each other or resume old friendships.

Enjoy!

Christine Fix
Editor-in-Chief

Sandra...
Great idea, I love the Y&R buddies thread and this can be just as much fun. Something must be wrong in my life because I just cannot seem to get my schedule down again without GL at 2pm!! After ATWT's goes off, GL is suppose to be next..........maybe soon it will get out of my head. I hope that all the fun time posters joins in on this site, that would be fun.

Thanks, Chrissi for starting this thread, guess you can tell some of us are having a hard time letting go!!

Thank you both for this thread. This is a great idea. I still miss our GL. There is not a day that goes by that I don't think of our GL. It will always be a part of my life. Just like the other day, my husband and I were coming home from the store. I look over at the 18 wheeler beside us, it says "Bauer trucking", and I am like, I miss GL, Rick, Michelle, Ed, Mike, Maureen and all of our Springfield family. I still can't believe that GL is gone. Then this week, as we were traveling, I look out the window and there is this building and it just says "Alan" on the side of it. Of course, I think Alan Spaulding. Then today, I was sitting on the beach while my husband was fishing, and I thought hum, wonder if Alan is really dead or is he on some island, wheeling and dealing. I also think about all of the friendships that have been made while posting together on this board. Thank you again!

Kudos to you Sandra, and you too, Chrissi for starting this chat room thread. The GL fans are the best! We all need to just vent for awhile longer about the loss of our beloved show. The posters on here are the best and have become friends of mine through this board. Bizzie, lucky you! I can just see you sitting on the beach, while we here in Pittsburgh, have had cold, rainy weather. About 80 miles from here, State College, home of Penn State, had 6 inches of snow and are expecting another 6 inches today. Too, too early for me! It seems that once the snow is here, it is downhill, weather wise for us. But, we endure it, because we love PA. We love the change of seasons, and the fall season too. The leaves here in PA are almost at their peak,and it is a beautiful sight to see each year. We get through the winter season, knowing that Spring will bring back the warmth and the Summer. I love Florida and go there about 2 weeks in the winter, but, I love PA.

Merrymary - we do love our beloved Pittsburgh. Of course, the Penguins & the Steelers make it even a greater place to live. I'll even throw in the Pirates, since PNC stadium is beautiful, and the Pirates of the past were great to watch and cheer on.

luvphil, don't forget we have the Pitt Panthers! It is such a great sports town. Pitsburgh, has it all, and soon we will be the first to see allof our beloved stars, espeially Rob Newman....Can't wait, but, don't want to hurry through Otober. The months are going too fast for me, as well as each year,the birthdays come around too quickly, too! 352 days are not long enough for me, too many things to do and see!

Hey merrymary..
From piggy number 2, how are you? Good to see you on the boards again, I love this site.

Just going to ask you to lay one long, lazy look(you thought that I was going to say kiss didn't you??) on Robert Newman just for me...........I knew over the years that he was yours, so I never did covet him (well, maybe a time or two for only a second) but would love for you to soak a little of his handsome looks in just for me!! I am so happy that you are going to be able to see him and all the others that we love so much. Wish that I had made plans to attend at least one of their good bye days, it is a long way from Texas but I would sure have done it had I known far enough in advance. Enjoy every second of it and please tell us all about it when you return.

I feel the same way about Texas as you and luvphil do about Pittsburgh, we are very lucky to live in places that we love. We are so hot still and there you guys are already freezing! Actually we were 47 this morning, nice..and only mid 70's so far. Perfect weather!!

Merrymary, I love Florida also. We have been coming to Florida for 20 years now. The weather is bit cold for me this time. It was only 61 today and very windy. I am use to it being warm, so I didn't pack jackets. We had to go across the street from our condo and buy sweatshirts. It was so funny, almost everyone on the beach this morning had on sweatshirts. And once again, I thought of Alan. Could you see Alan sitting on the beach in a sweatshirt and the wind blowing sand everywhere? Maybe I would have been warmer, maybe even hot, if I had been thinking of Bill in those little black shorts instead of thinking of Alan in a sweatshirt. From the looks of the weather outlook, I will get a chance to think of Bill tomorrow. It is suppose to be 47 tonight and 65 and windy tomorrow. Hopefully, it will be a little warmer when we come back in December.

Hi Sandra, Thanks for suggesting this thread. Since GL has gone off, I have not been watching any soap on a daily basis. I have watched ATWT twice at home. I have watched Y&R 4 times, DOOL 4 times, and OLTL 3 times. I watched these on soapnet while I was traveling. When I am at home, I just don't turn the T.V. on. I just can't get into another soap. Years ago I had watched DOOL on and off, but after watching it this past week on soapnet, I don't see myself watching it again when I get back home. Maybe, somewhere down the road I will get interested in another soap, but right now, all I do when I watch another soap is think how much better a soap GL was and then I miss it more.

Hi Bizzie, I hope it does get a little warmer for you in FL. I have a fdriend in West Parlm Beach and she said the temp dropped about 50 degrees. Brrrrr! Ww had a low of last night, but, we are getting up to the 60's this week. That sun felt so good after all the gloomy days here in Pittsburgh. We only get about 8 sun shiny days here in the 'burgh, but we appreciate it all the more when we see it! The leaves in PA are almost at their peak, and it is beautiful to see each fall. I have a maple tree in my front yard and it is a bright yellow burst of sunshine on a gloomy day. But, when the leaves fall from the tree, it is work, work, work. I'll be out tomorrow after I go bowling, and raking up those bright yellow leaves, again.

I do travel when I get the time. I love traveling. This last trip that we took was the first trip that we had been on since GL went off. While we had a good time, it made me miss GL even more. Normally, no matter where we would go, whether we were in our motorhome or on the beach somewhere, when it was time for GL, we either pulled into WalMart in the motorhome or came in from the beach to watch GL. It's funny and at the same time it's sad how you get use to scheduling your day/time for 40 some years and then it's changed and you didn't even have a say so in it.
