I'm a single mom of an awesome young man who attends Univ. of WA. In the last 8 years, I lost both of my sweet parents to cancer, but try daily to find ways to heal my heart. By day, I’m an engineer who loves to live life!
After losing my boyfriend to colon cancer in early 2013 and then being diagnosed with breast cancer in mid-2013, I was crushed. The road to recovery hasn’t been easy. However, the Poshmark community's unwavering support is the main reason why I Posh today! 💝

gordomom
@sherry8888 thank you so much for stopping by! I'm hoping I can at least try to keep up with some sharing while I'm recovering 😁💖💐
southernstyle88
@gordomom Don't you dare worry about keeping up. You just tell me from where I stopped-from there how far down do you want me to share. I told you Girl, anytime you need me I'm here. Just let me know.
gordomom
@lilo68 I'm so grateful to have met you, LisaAnn! You're also so kind and caring! 💝 hope you and your family enjoy the holidays!!
sharapost
Thinking of you and keeping you in my prayers.
gordomom
@sharapost thank you, my friend. I had a tough time today. It was the one year anniversary of when Chet went into residential hospice. The next couple of weeks will be tough but at least I'm done w surgery. Need to focus on emotional healing. 💝 hope you and your family enjoy the holidays!! Thank you for checking on me!! 💐
sharapost
@gordomom I'm so sorry. I know how painful it is to heal and recover from a loss like that. We seem to be struggling harder than ever with the loss of our son Seth right now. Beside you have a lot on your own plate. I'm so glad your surgeries are over and pray the healing now begins. You've been on my mind constantly the past few days. I will continue to pray for you and want you to know although we've never met you are very special to me.
gordomom
@sharapost I'm so sorry that you're having a tough time as well. Together we will continue into 2014 healing our hearts. I'm so glad that I have met you via PM as well. Merry Christmas and happy new year too!! 💝
sharapost
I am very happy we have met as well. Thanks and God bless you!
sharapost
How are you feeling?
gordomom
@sharapost hi Sherry! How are you doing? Hope the holidays are going well for you. 💝I'm feeling great...I actually tried jogging for the first time since the surgery and didn't do half bad! 😁 after all this munching, I need to get started with some good workouts. Thank you for checking on me, my friend! 💐
sharapost
Wow! I'm shocked and thrilled to hear how well you are doing! That is wonderful news. I'm so happy for you and proud of your determination. Praying for you and wishing you a wonderful New Year! You should get to come back as Host!
gordomom
@sharapost me too!! They did tell me that this last one would be so much easier than the other two but surgery is surgery, right? I couldn't believe it but I didn't even need any narcotics afterwards, just Tylenol a couple of times. Soooooo grateful. I just am in shock that I don't have to have surgery anymore (hope it stays that way). Is it really true? 😁🌟Sherry, you have been such a kind friend to me this year and I so appreciate you. 💝💐
sharapost
That is so amazing and I think your strength, determination, attitude and endurance all has something to do with it! Just amazing!!! You have been so sweet and dear to me as well. I think of you often and wish the very best for you.
itslwl
Hi michelle! Hope all is bright for you and your loved ones in this new year! 💐
gordomom
@itslwl Hi Lorena - I sure plan to make it a great year, but it's starting out with my son and I home with a bad cold. 😢 the good part of that is that I have some time to Posh!! 🎉 thanks so much for checking in!! 💐 hope you're having a good year so far!! 💝
nugget_love
❤❤❤❤❤😘😘
nugget_love
😢😢I don't think I knew you lost your partner in Jan and were diagnosed with cancer yourself. My heart is so heavy!!!!!! Is that what your operation was related to (thought it was your knee...but could be confused). I am now even a bigger fan. You are such a strong woman. Love the pics of you and your little one (not too little I know). Quite handsome!!😘😘
itslwl
You are amazing! And I only know a little bit about your journey and story. Mountains of smiles to you @gordomom gosh the flu is going around...took me 15 days to get to normal. Take care of your handsome boy. XxL
gordomom
@itslwl oh no! I'm sorry to hear that you had the flu too! So glad that you're feeling better though! Thank you so much for the kind words and support. I'm constantly amazed that the people meet on here are so incredibly kind & thoughtful!! 💝
gordomom
@nugget_love No worries! There are so many people to keep up with on here so I don't expect you to remember details about me. 😊 2013 was definitely a rough year. Monday was actually the 1 yr anniversary of his passing so I've been even more emotional lately. However, he had such a great attitude which helped me through all of my surgeries (3 in 2013, one the week after PF) because no matter what I went through, I was going to survive and be strong. Oh yeah, I did have knee surgery in 4/2012 after I tore my ACL "chasing my kid" down the back side of Mt. Hood, so you definitely had that right. My knee has never been the same since but I'm working on it. At least I can wear heels now!! 😰. Thank you so much for checking in! I'm very glad I had a chance to meet you and your sis at PF!! 💝
nugget_love
So glad I met you too!!! I wish there was an emoj for a hug.....
gordomom
@nugget_love thank you!! I so appreciate that!!! I can't wait until we can use the animated emoji!! 😄💝
itslwl
Through kindness I find grace...2014 certainly a defining year...bless you M!
mamaturtledove
You are a brave and beautiful lady. Thanks for sharing your story and it's nice to meet you here on PM 😃 I hope you are doing well and healing both physically and emotionally. We lost a cousin last August to cancer too. She was just a couple months shy of her 17th birthday. Here's to finding a cure for all diseases someday. Happy Poshing, Michelle! Stay strong!! 😘

gordomom
@jblacombe Most definitely! I'm happy to give back as much as I can. I know I can never give nearly as much as I received. I'm so grateful for all of the support!! 💝 Other than a nasty cold, we are doing fine though. Thank you for checking!! 💐
franonymous
@gordomom lovely post. You are always such a breath of fresh air. So happy we are Posh friends!😘

@narflyrem Hi Fran - hope you're well! Thank you for your friendship as well! Your kindness speaks volumes even though we've never met in person! So glad our paths crossed here! 💝
franonymous
@gordomom awe, thank you so much. Such a sweet thing to say. BTW, what kind of engineer are you. I practiced for 20 years as a patent attorney. I know a lot of engineer!
gordomom
@narflyrem my background is in biomechanics but I'm currently in process engineering. Wow, a patent attorney! That must have been so interesting to see the variety of designs!!! 😍

cle2220
@gordomom what a terrible tragedy! I'm so sorry about your partner! And are you in remission now? Your son is a doll as well as you. It's so crazy to think while your browsing through ppls closests on here what their story is. Now that I've read yours I feel a lil like were friends. You seem to be an amazing lady. And I wish you all the best in life!!!! I'm glad we "met" 😍
gordomom
@cle2220 Hi Christina - thank you so much for the kind words! I am considered to be in remission now. I had three surgeries last year (last one was 12/10), but I'm back to work now. The anesthesia definitely took a toll and my organizational skills seem to be on vacation. 😊 however, there's nothing like jumping back into the thick of it. 😄 thank you so much for the support. I know I'm not the only one who has a "story", but am so grateful to have met such kind ladies like you here on the app!! 💝💐🌟
cjani
How very nice to meet you. I live in OREGON and in June was diagnosed with stage 4 Sarcoma which is a very rare cancer. 1-2 people per million so treating it isn't easy because they don't yet know enough about .
My primary interest with Posh is long scarves I wrap to cover my little round bald head and keep it warm..lol
That and find clothing that is smaller than what I'm use to wearing since chemo has taken off a few lbs.
I'm an artist, feeling good and enjoying my life to the fullest for as long as God Plans for me to be here. I have 3 grown sons 9 grandchildren and 2 more on the way....whew!
I love this site and the kindness of code here. Blessings to you my end. Take care. Jan
gordomom
@cjani Hi jan - good to meet you too!! I'm so sorry about your diagnosis, but it sounds like you have a great attitude! What a fun family you must have too! Where in OR do you live? We just had a meet up in Portland last night. It would be great to meet you!! 🌻
jenn_sd
Michelle, we don't ever really chat on here, but I know we share listings from time to time. I decided to read this listing and I have to tell you.....you are an amazing and strong person! I've always admired your closet and even more so now that I know a bit about the person behind it. I'm glad that Posh has given everyone a nice sense of community. It's great! Anyway thanks for all the past shares, and hope you have a wonderful weekend!
gordomom
@jenn_sd Thank you for stopping by! PM has so any wonderful community members and I'm so glad to meet people like you even if it's only "virtually"!💝 I am constantly amazed by all the kindness! So glad we "met" here! Thank you for sharing from my closet as well!! 💐💐💐

Congrats to you🎉💕😘
endersd
@gordomom Hi Michelle, Fantastic job last night hosting the Posh Party at the Comma Spa....Loved it! Everyone I spoke with felt the same way. Thank you for everything. You really made my first Posh Party fun, exciting, relaxing and comfortable. From getting pampered in the spa to relaxing in leather recliners with drinks in hand getting to know our fellow Portland Posher's. Thank you, the time and effort you invested into make this evening special was very noticable.
I didn't want to leave when my driver showed up to pick me up. The gifts were insane! Kate Spade my fav, and Coach just to name a few. Wow....you really put some time into making this special for all of us. Thank you!
cjani
Nice to chat with you . I live in Bend, or. Beautiful place. Lots to do and great views of the mountains
gordomom
@bthereasap thank you, my friend! It was great fun! I look forward to partying with you in person someday!! How have you been? 💝
gordomom
@endersd Hi Deana - Sorry for the delay in responding. Now that I'm back to work, I fall behind on my Poshing! Thank you for the kind words! It was so fun to plan! It makes me happy that you enjoyed the party. I do look forward to meeting up again so that we can chat more. The 2 hours just weren't enough! 💖
gordomom
@cjani Hi Jan - my son and I are actually planning to go to Sunriver tomorrow and ski at Mt. bachelor this weekend. I'm feeling slightly under the weather though, so I hope we don't have to cancel. It would be fun to meet up with the Bend area Poshers! 💝
bthereasap
@gordomom
Looking forward to that myself💕.
I'm ok, hanging in there. Mom was inpatient for 7 weeks and going back in approx 3 for 5 more. I pray for miracles my friend. I pray all day for miracles.
I'm so so happy your doing great! Continued health and happiness to you and yours.
cjani
It would be fun. I've been under the weather for a few days as well. I an fighting the big C so a cold isn't a welcome addition. I have Sarcoma, very rare,
gordomom
@cjani sorry you're fighting a cold as well! Hope you feel better soon! ,y son and I just arrived in Sunriver this afternoon. I must have had a 24 hour bug because I felt so much better this morning, but had to sleep all day yesterday. Sending you hugs and healing energy! 🌟🌻💝
gordomom
@mizfabulousity I miss you too! People are already talking about PF 2014 and I can't wait! Hope that I can plan some extra time there this year to hang out a bit longer with my Posh pals! 💝

Are you co-hosting soon Michelle? I would love to return the favor! Other wise I will do so tomorrow night as I'm hitting the hay early tonight! Thank you again - that was a sweet surprise💕
gordomom
@classyvintage no worries, Marie! I truly try to share hosts' closets with no expectations for sharing back or host picks. Honestly I have so much trouble keeping up as it is 😊 maybe I should create a post asking people to share for someone else on my behalf. 💝 thank you so much for the offer though!! 💐

Aw well to thank you again for last night Michelle! 😘

@gordomom - I just wanted to say it was nice to meet you in person• you are as nice as you seem on Posh❤️
I hope your health is good ( or better ) at this time. I remember reading your About me• not long after I started & thinking " it's true the support here on posh helps get us thru" • should you want to chat ever LMK / read my about me : you will understand. 💟
Hope to see you again - take care

@read247 Hi Helen - I just read your bio on the PFF FB page and wanted to introduce myself. It seems we have a bit in common. 💝 looking forward to meeting you in SF!! 🌻
read247
Very nice to meet you! Hope you are handling your diagnosis. Looking forward to meeting you!
gordomom
@read247 lol - I actually just realized I had a typo in my bio and just updated it. My diagnosis was 6/2013. I have the BRCA 2, so I ended up having 3 surgeries last year. Still adjusting to my new self, but getting back to life again. 💝 looks/sounds like you are doing very well, which is inspiring to me!! 🌟
read247
That definitely sounds better than 2014! I was wondering how you were going to be able to go lol! Mine was caught very early and surgery just seemed the best way to go. Haven't regretted it once 😆
clpxminer
@gordomom awwww you're super awesome and I could tell that just from the few "chats" we've had in the comment sections of your gorgeous stuff!! I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm very new to this Posh thing so bear with me! I didn't even know I could introduce myself!
gordomom
@clpxminer oh thank you!! It's so nice to meet you! Welcome to PM!! If you're interested, there are some trusted Poshers who have helpful posts and I could tag you on their posts if you'd like. No worries if you're not interested though. 🌻
clpxminer
@gordomom oh that is super sweet of you!! Any help would be soooo appreciated!!
sharapost

Hi thanks for the invite to the Florida event!😉. I tried to comment on chuchala99 and it wouldn't let me I was shocked that I was blocked! Don't have a clue! Anyway I would be interested I'm about three hours away. Could spend the night. ❗️👍💖

@suzyque Whaaaat? Must be a mistake. I'll mention it to Ilene. Very strange! Sorry about that! 💝

Gosh, I can't believe I missed this post all these months, Michelle! You are seriously one of the most amazing poshers around, you totally made this app special for me. Sending lots of love your way 😘😘

@benectar Thanks so much for the kind words, Sharon!! You've also been so friendly and supportive!! Not to mention your great sense of style! 💝💐
gordomom
@sequingirl I saw your post on FB and wanted to introduce myself. It seems we have something in common, although I feel very lucky that they caught mine early. The last photo with the Posh tshirt was when I was on my way to my 2nd surgery last October, the week right after PF. Anyway, I look forward to meeting you in person at PF and hearing more about your experience. Sending healing thoughts to you!! 💝🌻
sequingirl
@gordomom Oh wow Michelle! Thank u so much for reaching to me. I've been dealing with this since April 2012 but am currently in remission. I just went and saw my doc
Friday and wait for the blood work to come back after 3 months since my last infusion. Please friend me on FB so we can chat more. 😘XOXO😘 PS my son is 8 1/2 😀
hydrogirl
❤️Your cover shots are extraordinary❤️
gordomom
@hydrogirl Thank you so much for the kind words! It's fun to style the cover shots, but I do get lazy sometimes (as you can probably tell). 😊 I wish I had more time and better lighting though! 💐💐💐
fifig23
You sound like a very strong woman!
gordomom
@fifig23 Thank you - working my way back! I appreciate the support!! 💝💐
fifig23
My father had a stroke in 1996 when he was only 50 and at the top of his practice as an orthopedic surgeon. He had 5 children under 18. He fought his way back and it is a MIRACLE. A miracle. I support you 100%. That picture of you and your son is beautiful. 🌟
gordomom
@fifig23 oh that's wonderful!! I'm so glad to hear that about your dad! It gives me hope and motivates me to keep improving!! Thank you for sharing your story with me! 💖
fifig23
You have already made my day and it's only 10am where I am! I am so so grateful that anything I said gave you motivation. There were some dark, dark days. There was one time when I saw my big, strong dad in the hospital and he looked like he had aged 20 years overnight. And I sat in the ER and he lay there, both of us with tears flowing down our faces. I cry as I write this. But he never gave up. He never gave in. And to see him now... God is good. I need to add a picture of my dad to my "meet me" listing. If you ever need an ear, I'm a good listener. 💐
gordomom
@fifig23 I know exactly what you mean! I can still picture looking up at my dad when he was teaching me to fish. It was devastating to me when I lost my dad earlier this year. He fought cancer on and off for about 12 years. To see him in a weakened state like that just broke my heart. I'm also here if you ever need to chat. That's what I love so much about PM. So many people support each other. 💝🌻
fifig23
Hi Dear- Right after you shared an item for me last night (a pair of boots), they sold! Hooray! I know it was helped made possible by your share because you have sooooooo many followers. I just wanted to say thank you so much. I'm really happy! This was a big sale for me! Have a beautiful weekend with Gordon!
gordomom
@fifig23 wonderful! I love to hear when that happens! 💝so glad the shares helped you out! I'm always so behind in sharing back but appreciate all of your shares as well! 💐

Thank you for sharing such an intricate part of your life. I can related. I too have survived many challenges. God bless. I am a new Posher and love it! Best choice I have ever made.
bbreaux
How encouraging for a new posher to see and hear testimonials of a wonderful woman like yourself!
gordomom
@bbreaux Thank you so much for your support! It's a wonderful community! I hope you've also had a great experience! 💖
weimaranermom
We never know what story is behind each closet. So happy to finally really "meet" you! I agree, Posh is a wonderful place to make new friends. <3
queenmumm
Michelle, you are definitely one of the most inspiring women I have ever had the extreme pleasure of meeting through Posh. Have a safe trip and know I'm thinking about you! Cheers! 😘👑😘👑😘
gordomom
@queenmumm oh Brenda - you know how dear you are to me. Always one who I turn to for wisdom 💝 Thank you for all you do!! 💐
gordomom
@weimaranermom Thank you, Bev! So nice to "meet" you as well! I'm so grateful for all of the friendships I'm making here! 💖
carenlovesgucci
@gordomom That cover shot of you and your son makes me smile 😘Pure love! I am " Aunt Caren" to many a friends kids .. Yep, spoil um all rotten! 13 year old boys and I get along great! They work their moms last nerve at times.. With me.. When I "babysit" aka watch as companion .. We eat junk food, play video games... Lol I think I am mentally about that of a teenage boy 😉
gordomom
@carenlovesgucci that's so awesome!! I hope to be able to communicate better with him someday...😊 any tips? Thank you for sharing! We are heading out of the country but will be back in a week! 💝
carenlovesgucci
@gordomom MICHELLE ❤️ Have a safe and happy journey! Oh, you and he will be fine! As an "aunt", I have an advantage in that I have all the fun, but I am not the evil lol lady that reminds about homework; cleaning the room , etc. All the best parts but not the disciplinarian! Boys that age are refreshingly honest and the filters are gone (hormones).. Lol It helps to take an interest in their interests! I still take my friends 16 year old to film festivals.. My friends college age step sons still call when home to come over and make cookies while having a chat over some video games ..... I am 100% honest with them as well (ok, I was a wild child 'in my day" so I don't tell them about my jaded youth unless, in doing so, it helps to relate and sometimes, they benefit from my mistakes!) Let them know you were a kid once! Share with him 😉 Right now, a lot he has going on he can't "put his finger on" and it helps to remind him you might "get" some of what he is going through... Any dialogue is good... Sometimes a "poker face" is warranted on your part.. But he will open up! Despite his best efforts and /or actions to the contrary.. He very much needs his mom right now... Deep down he knows this.. But is trying to assert his independence as well! Might not be sage wisdom, but this is how I relate to teens ! Pure, honest... And always ready to listen ! I find boys at that age talk more side by side.. More apt to share in a car... Or while casually hanging out ❤️
gordomom
@carenlovesgucci that's so great that they trust you and turn to you. What a compliment to you and a gift to them! 💖 I'm sure he will turn out ok, but that doesn't stop me from worrying along the way. Thank you!! 😄

lauras_boutique
Hi Michelle 🌹I'm Laura, and it's so nice to meet you! 😀💗You have such a moving story of strength and courage, and it brought tears to my eyes to read that you lost your partner and you were diagnosed with breast cancer.😥 My mom and best friend are both in remission from breast cancer, so I feel very lucky and blessed to still have them!😍 I hope that you are in remission too!❤️ I can imagine you are very proud of you handsome son too!💗 I have been on PM since October, and I'm addicted since I love shopping and meeting new amazing posher's, and I'm so glad that I have now met you!😍❤️ I live in Michigan with an amazing hubby and 4 adorable kitty furry babies that I adore!😍🐱 You have a beautiful closet, and I would love to stay in touch!💕 Have a lovely day! Laura 💗💋
lmpasternack
@gordomom what a tragic story Michelle. But it is so good to see that you get support from other pushers. Count me in. You are on my prayer list for continued health and prosperity. 😘
gordomom
@lmpasternack thank you for the kind words and support. I'm working on rebuilding my life and love this community for being so caring! 💝
lmpasternack
@gordomom your closet is just phenomenal. I like it all! I wish I could wear your shoe size. And heels. I'm so happy posh has come together for you. That's incredible!!!! I love the women I've met on here. Some I plan to visit and have met one lovely woman in person so far. @acufox is amazing and so sweet and beautiful! I feel so blessed to be part of this community as well. It helps me muddle through chronic pain.
gordomom
@lmpasternack oh, I'm sorry to hear that you have to endure pain, but I agree that there are so many exceptional people on PM. My only regret is that I can't get to know people better. While working on getting myself healthy again and making sure I don't lose my job, I'm not able to Posh as much as I once did. I definitely miss PFFs but Posh as often as I can. Meeting PFFs in person is one of the best therapies I've found! 💝
gordomom
@aj_007 Thank you for the kind words! I appreciate you stopping by! 💝💐

kissmymissy
@gordomom Michelle. Your struggles made me teary. Cervical cancer of stage 0 was a walk in the park compared to super aggressive Inflammatory Breast Cancer (IBC) and Invasive Ductal Carcinoma. I am in awe that you are so upbeat, even after five years of watching a loved one fight colon cancer. I found/find cancer so solitary.
gordomom
@kissmymissy Thank you so much for your kindness and support! I'm sorry to hear that you found your experience to be solitary. How are you feeling now?
sijolie71
What an amazing story and testament to the Posh Community. Happy to 'meet' you.🌸

Im a single mom too!! Lost my momma to colon cancer! Love your stuff!!! Stay amazing! Xoxo

@gordomom Hi my name is Renee! It's nice to meet you! You have a very beautiful closet! 💞💞
pearldiverla
Hi Gordomom! Are you still in PDX? I was searching for fellow local Poshers and saw that you had a meetup in 2013 on the Between Friends Fashion blog. Are you still having meetups?
gordomom
@lunraura Hi Laura - so nice to meet you!! We are currently chatting about an end of year meet up. Everyone is so busy so it will likely be fairly low key. Are you on Facebook? If so, I'll tag you on the post that has the url for the group. Thank you for contacting me! 💝
gordomom
@marinaschic here's a little bit about me 💖 so glad to "meet" you and look forward to meeting you in person next week! 🎉
marina_wildhawk
Oh my goodness Michelle!! What an amazing story!! I'm always blown away to learn about strong women and see all we have and can continue to overcome!! Thank you for sharing your story with me!! I've got 2 little ones, an almost 17 yr old daughter and a 12 yr old special needs little boy. My son had a traumatic brain injury in 2011, and prior to that and after my fiancée continued to struggle with alcoholism.
marina_wildhawk
My son recovered thank the Lord. But my fiancée lost everything, his job, his three children, his health and finally his life. It has been very difficult and I've had a hard time adjusting to it all. I thank my lucky stars I came across the biz insider article and found this wonderful community!! Bless you!!
gordomom
@marinaschic oh my, I'm so sorry to hear that. I agree that Posh has been a life saver for me as well. The community has been soooo supportive! So many strong women, especially those who help support each other. Such an amazing dynamic! 💖
marina_wildhawk
Agreed!! It's been an empowering experience and I know next weekend will be unforgettable!!
sartorialheaven
Wow, Michelle, I knew we had more in common than just love for pretty shoes. I was diagnosed with breast cancer in June of 2012. Hope you are doing well:)
gordomom
@blingkimchi thank you so much! It's nice to meet you! I hope you're enjoying Posh as much as I do. 💖
gordomom
@afonina Hi Julia - so sorry for the delay in replying. It must have been fate that our paths crossed. I'm sorry to hear about your diagnosis. How are you doing now? Hope that your PM experience has been as positive as mine. Poshers have been so supportive. 💝
sartorialheaven
No worries, Michelle. I know we are all busy. I have been doing great - 3,5 years cancer free. I love PM, however don't usually talk about my diagnosis on it, very few people know about it. I have been able to meet some amazing women on here, that includes you:) So I consider myself to be very blessed and in so many ways.
Hope you are doing well also.
gordomom
@afonina I'm glad you're doing so well! Hope that it stays that way! Thank you for sharing with me. 💝
thickrich
@gordomom you sound so amazing and im glad you beat cancers butt!! ;)
gordomom
@thickrich Hi Richey - thank you so much for the support! I hope that you've been enjoying getting to know other Poshers as much as I have. 💝💐
cileia
@gordomom OMG!!!! Thank you so much for the beautiful necklace you sent me!!!! I really love it! I didn't get a name of a "secret sister" to send a gift to. I don't remember which group created that. I would love to send someone a gift! Who do I check with, Michelle?
gordomom
@cileia so glad you like it!! Happy holidays!! I had gotten your name through @ellebee206 for the gift exchange. I think it depended on who you volunteered through. 💝

@gordomom hi. Just wanted to let you know that I think you have a gorgeous closet and I was happy to share your listings! 👍🏻🛍😎

Way cool! I just found you in the 'boutiques'!! Happy poshing!! 💃🏻💃🏻😘💕 @gordomom

@cassandraknox oooh cool! Thank you for letting me know! I couldn't find myself without filtering earlier. 😊💝
gordomom
@kerrir414 Thanks so much for stopping by!! 💝💐
missrenee2
@gordomom Hi! I didn't realize you are from Washington as well. How cool! My best friend lives in Vancouver Wa too. Have a great day. 😊😊
gordomom
@missrenee2 oh awesome - does she Posh too? We have a group of Portland area Poshers who meet periodically. Where in WA are you? 💝
missrenee2
@gordomom I am in a little town called Orting. It's close to Puyallup! It's so nice to connect with you. I think you are amazing. 😘😘
gordomom
@missrenee2 oh that's great! There's a group of gals in the Seattle area. I'll tag you on one of the meetup posts, in case you're interested in meeting local Poshers. 💝
doxin
@gordomom So sorry for your personal tragedies but it appears you rose above them. Your son is very handsome and one of your pictures appears to be at Seattle Center by the Space Needle. Bless you
gordomom
@doxin Hi Louise - thank you for stopping by! Life is always a work in progress, but I'm definitely trying to live life to the fullest! I'm just down in the Portland area, but visit my mom and sisters in Seattle often. Are you in the PNW as well? 💝
doxin
@gordomom yes I live in Puyallup. Love your jewelry in your closet.
gordomom
@doxin oh, so nice to meet you! There are some wonderful Poshers up in the Seattle area with a big meetup coming up in June. If you're interested, I can tag you on the post. It was super fun last year. 💝
gordomom
@doxin oh and thank you for browsing my jewelry too. I'll be adding quite a few new items (handmade and other retail) in the next few weeks.
doxin
@gordomom thank you for the info. Yes do send me the link it might be something to consider this summer.
gordomom
@doxin sure will! 💝

Hi this is Irene☺️ I am new to posh. I was browsing through and ended up in your closet. Your story is such an inpiration✨
gordomom
@bdrobinson Hi Bethany - thanks for stopping by to say hello! I haven't been on much today, so it was a very nice surprise to see your messages pop up. I can't believe that our paths haven't crossed unit now. We have a small group of Portland area Poshers who meet periodically. If you'd be interested in joining us sometime, please let me know and I'll tag you on the posts. So nice to meet you! 💝
gordomom
@bdrobinson wonderful! I will tag you on a couple of posts. Sounds like fun!! We have talked about planning a summer meet up!
gordomom
@ivylasmus Hi Ivy - so nice to meet you! I'm sorry to hear about your health struggles, but sending you positive vibes! The creative therapy is so helpful for me (health wise and as a mental break from work) 😊 I started with beading and stone setting at home, but found the local metalsmithing studio through a craft bazaar. Perhaps Google metal smith studio in your area? I learned the basics on copper but now apply what I learned to silver. 💝
gordomom
@ivylasmus also, there are some amazing creative Poshers who make awesome jewelry! If you'd like, I would be happy to introduce to you to them. 💝
gordomom
@ivylasmus ok, I will tag you on some of my favorite jewelry closets 🌷
pixiedo
After all the "shares" and support, it is nice to finally "meet" you! I didn't realize you made jewelry until I saw it in one of your listings today! Beautiful work @gordomom!! Cheers to you & all our fabulous PFF's 🍸
gordomom
@pixiedo Hi Marielle - thank you for stopping by! So nice to "meet" you as well! You have a lovely closet! 😍 Jewelry making has been a wonderful therapeutic outlet for me. If you look through my collection, some of it is darker, more edgy, but others are light and whimsical - very much a reflection of my struggle for the last few years. 💝
pixiedo
Michelle @gordomom it takes a positive outlook to thrive when diagnosed and obviously it is working for you. Finding something that feeds your soul & uplifts the spirit is essential. My stress therapy is my camera, getting in my gardens or just cranking the radio and singing (poorly, I might add) along. I've been interested in learning jewelry making techniques so maybe that is next on my list! I love the simplicity of your pieces. Wishing you good health & happiness. See you in the newsfeed!!
luvposh14
You have a great closet! Your story is inspiring. I have not been poshing that long but I love it as well! Check out my closet too. 😀
terracotta_
Just read your story. You're such a strong and inspirational woman! Your son is such a cutie ☺️ sending lots of love and support your way! Wish I was local and could meet you ladies 💔 let me know if you ever make it to Orlando! 😘
gordomom
@kristenbonelli thank you so much! I totally need to update those photos! He's 15 now and over 6' tall! Funny you should mention Orlando. We were just there for spring break! What a fun place! We are hoping to go again in 2 years. Have you thought about going to Poshfest? I know it's a bit far, but it's a great opportunity to meet other Poshers and super fun!! 🎉
terracotta_
@gordomom omg, at that age they grow so fast! He would tower over me too 😂 Orlando is usually great (minus recent circumstances) and I'd love to go to PF but at the moment Posh is my only income 🙈😩 can't swing it just yet but hopefully someday!
gordomom
@kristenbonelli totally understandable! We keep hoping they'll have PF in Miami one year. Maybe next year... I just updated my photos, mostly from our spring break trip. 😊 Thanks for motivating me to update the post!! 🌷
terracotta_
@gordomom glad I could be of help ☺️ your mother is SO adorable, and it looks like your son did get much bigger in just a year!💞 looks like you like to travel from your cruise and outdoor pics, that's something we for sure have in common! I love these little "about me" posts.. I should consider doing one too, just a bit on the shy side when it comes to being open with myself on an open platform like this 🙈
gordomom
@kristenbonelli yes, we love to travel! We were lucky enough to cruise with 7 other families from our neighborhood for spring break. You're lucky that you're so close to the Caribbean! I thought about moving to FL, but my mom and dad moved to Seattle just a few years ago for his cancer treatment. He didn't make it, so we try to visit my mom as often as possible.
gordomom
@kristenbonelli I apparently am very chatty on here bc I exceeded the character limit 😄... I highly recommend an "about me" post. I'm actually quite shy in person, but most people on Posh are very supportive and friendly! I actually chat with some of my PFFs more often than my "real life" BFF. It's crazy! 😄💝
gordomom
@sharfashion Hey Sharon! Nice to see you in my feed. Hope you're well!! I'm nodding off here, but chat soon!! 💝
sharfashion
@gordomom Aliha Michelle! Thanks for the Posh live! You've got new jewelry and pieces. Gorgeous pieces! Have a great night. Talk soon 😊
terracotta_
@gordomom I do apologize for last night- I went out with a friend and left you mid conversation! Yes, the Caribbean is spectacular. I really haven't spent much time at all on your coast, Washington state and Oregon have always been on my list of places I'd love to explore. Sorry to hear about your father. I have plenty of cancer in my family as well and it's a hell of a thing.
terracotta_
@gordomom I exceed that darn character limit all the time haha it's a pain for us wordy girls! I will consider the about me post at some point.. It'll probably just end up being about my cats anyway 😻 and I've met some wonderful ladies on here too, which is so nice and refreshing. I'd love to meet some in person too!! I definitely consider you a PFF 👑
gordomom
@kristenbonelli lol, no worries! I totally understand having a life outside of Posh 😊 Im not as active as I used to be since I'm trying to set a good example for my son. He's still sleeping now, so I have been on since just after 7!! 😳 We are going out for a jog soon though. 😊💝
terracotta_
@gordomom I wish I could be outside as much! It's horribly humid and swelteringly hot out.. Florida summer for you! I hope you're enjoying your weekend so far 💁🏻💋
obindee
Good morning! You purchased the Laborardite ring I list a and purchased it Friday. I just gout home from Vegas ( fun weekend!) and will mail out today! Thank you for supporting me!
gordomom
@obindee Hi Robin - I think you may have me confused with someone else. I didn't purchase the lab ring, but it is lovely! Congrats on the sale! 💝
gordomom
@rwdempsey sorry, there isn't a way to delete comments. 😊 if you'd like, you can create a post with some photos and tag me. I try to keep all communications on Posh for everyone's protection. Thanks!

gordomom
@demitria yes indeed! I've only met a few in person, but it's super fun! 💝
demitria
@gordomom I've done it a few times yrs ago. I'm pretty blessed that I have a whole entire floor. Dedicated everything you can imagine Plus items we cannot sell on PM I have an area for wrapping packing etc. and a place to take pics. Have you tried that app. Letgo yet? Wow the very first day I was on it. I sold $450 worth of items cash! I'm going to have surgery on the 30th so I'm going to be off PM for a bit. I of course will shop share etc. when I can. If you ever need extra shares plz tag me
gordomom
@demitria that's great! It would be fun to have more local meet ups. I work full time so this is a "hobby". I wish I had more time (and space) for PM! 💖

mcjayne
@gordomom bless your heart, cancer is brutal...I've been fighting multiple myeloma for 3 years & I feel your pain-it's the hardest thing to hear, I still remember the drop in my stomach i felt at hearing those words, "we found cancer"😔your jewelry is INCREDIBLE! I'm looking for a sterling silver ring with a pink stone for my youngest...she's 14 & is in ❤️with anything pink! Let me know if you have anything like that my fellow warrior😘🌹
gordomom
@mcjayne I'm so sorry to hear that you've been ill! I hope that you're in remission now. The Posh community has been so supportive. I hope that you've found the same.
I'll keep an eye out for a pink stone. I don't think I have any in stock at the moment. Do you know what size ring she would need?
Thanks for reaching out!! 💝
mcjayne
@gordomom Michelle, I literally just found out I'm in remission about 3 weeks ago😮‼️ I'm still struggling with getting out of that, "fight & battle" mode, you know? Multiple myeloma is considered non curable but treatable & my dr & I are beyond ecstatic, I'm just still wrapping my head around it❤️My Grace is a size 7, she loves Rose Quartz but prefers bling! So the shinier the better😂🌹
klbrooks27
Sorry for your loss and struggle with cancer! I represent a company called Ariix that provides pure nutritional supplements. I lost my younger brother to cancer last year and it broke my heart! I only wish I could have taught him to heal naturally with my products😓 I sent him lots of stuff which was returned to me still intact after he passed.. If you'd like me to share with you email me strapptz@gmail
Your son must be a highlight of your life as well as your Mom! My best to you😘
gordomom
@klbrooks27 I'm so sorry for your loss! I am glad that you encourage natural solutions. I work closely with a naturopathic doctor who has an oncology background, so I have made complete life style changes to prevent recurrence. 💐💝
klbrooks27
Hi ! Thank you for your sweet note!
klbrooks27
I'm happy you're taking care of yourself nutritionally because a lot of people don't change when they get cancer. I have learned that not all supplements are created equal. Unless they're manufactured in a OTC lab they're only required to have 30% of what they say they have and the source is very important too... Otherwise not much value! May be in Camas next summer and if so will contact you in advance !😘💞

Hi Michelle, I'm Vicky.....I had to stop and officially introduce myself b/c two awesome people I know speak so highly of you! 💕 Lisa @croweart ( one of my posh sisters ) and Brenda @queenmumm ( who I finally met at poshlovefest ) but then I saw all your workout clothes & got stuck in your closet!! 🤗😂
gordomom
@vicky_ymcagirl hi there, Vicky! So nice to meet you! I just saw Lisa today!! I'm so lucky that she lives close to me now. Brenda is also so kind and wise!! I look forward to getting to know you more as well!! Those workout clothes in my closet aren't getting much of a workout... 😄💝
vicky_ymcagirl
What?!? I'm so jealous! 😐 I've never even seen Lisa @croweart but consider her one of my sweetest friends! But that's posh for you...☺️ and I don't need another piece of workout attire 🙄 ...but alas, it's always the first place I gravitate toward...😂
croweart
@vicky_ymcagirl I had no idea the 2 of you hadn't been introduced! My bad!! Michelle, Vicky and I have been close Posh sisters pretty much since i started on Posh, she is an amazing mentor to all newbies and a great friend all around...I'm sad to have left the East coast before getting to actually meet her!!! You 2 are gonna love eachother!!! xoxoxoxox

gordomom
@kit_kidm thank you for stopping by! This community is amazing!! I hope you're enjoying it as well! I've made so many good friends on here. Have you been to a local meet up or Poshfest? It's so fun to meet PFFs in person. 💖
kit_kidm
@gordomom I didn't know about local meet ups! How do I find out about those? Also, can you give me any advice: I had a buyer purchase two items separately at the same time so I bundled them together and only used one shipping label... now one item remains "pending usps scan" but it will stay that way😳 I contacted Posh-support...
gordomom
@kit_kidm let's try to connect you with some other Poshers in the area who might know. I'm trying to think of who is in that area. Have you tried searching by city? I'll try to see if I can find someone in that area.
gordomom
@kit_kidm on the shipping, I did that recently and Posh marked it as shipped, then told me to confirm when it was received by the buyer (I did this in the listing so Posh could see it) and then notified them to update it as delivered. They did recommend asking the buyer to cancel and repurchase as a bundle. To be continued...
gordomom
@kit_kidm ...I've tried that in the past and the buyer never came back for the bundle, so I will try to wait for confirmation from the buyer before I cancel a sale. I usually give them 24 hours to respond too. Hope that makes sense! 💝
kit_kidm
@gordomom yes! That makes sense. Thank you so much for your time and helpful advice!!✨✨
gordomom
@kit_kidm no problem at all! Stop by anytime! That's what PoshLove is all about 💝

Hi there! Thanks for the shares. It's funny.. I was just thinking about you last night😊. I hope you have a great weekend!
gordomom
@misnoplay Hi Tierney - Hope all is well! I'm just getting back into the swing of things after having over a month of work travel. I so missed my PFFs! Thank you for taking the time to say hello! Btw, any chance you're going to PF this year? I would still love to meet you in person someday!! 💝
misnoplay
@gordomom Welcome back! I've made preliminary travel plans to be visiting my daughter who lives in upstate NY for her birthday right before Poshfest so my chances of attending are pretty slim. We'll see... I'd love to get to Poshfest though. I'd really like to meet you and soak in the experience! One of these days...
gordomom
@misnoplay agreed! I'll keep hoping, but in the meantime, I hope you have a wonderful visit with your daughter! 💖
artsie_1
Great pictures. Nothing more important than family! I am trying really hard to take my closet to the next level. I lost my job due to a chronic condition and need the best tips from the best people. After Posh Fest, I hope you will share your tips to those of us who can't attend. Have Fun!!!😀🍀💥

Hi! I’m new to Poshmark and have been oogling your closet and love your style 💕. Don’t be surprised if I buy something from you! Have a great day and thanks for sharing your story. I’m so sorry to hear of your loss and struggles. Thanks for sharing how you like Poshland xo Debbie

Wow. You are an inspiration to all. 😢
lizandfound
Ok so unfunny funny story: I signed up for a closet consultation with you at posh fest and the night before I made use of a few free drink tickets (like an idiot, I don't even drink like that) and I SLEPT THROUGH THE CONSULT! I wanted to apologize to you but it was the last day and everyone was really busy (and I looked like I got hit by a train). So I am officially apologizing for sleeping though your consult.
gordomom
@lizandfound omg - that’s why your name sounded familiar. No worries at all! I’m bummed that we didn’t get to chat, but your closet looks lovely anyway! It’s nice to “meet” you officially. It sounds like you had a great time and that’s the important thing about PF! ☺️💝
lizandfound
@gordomom aw thank you! it's nice to "meet" you as well! I loved poshfest but think it might be wise that I have just a tad bit less fun next year so I don't miss anything!

Feel free to check out my closet and let me know if you need anything. I accept REASONABLE offers and bundles ❤️❤️❤️

@pamcakesyumyum oh you’re so sweet! I totally need to update these photos and the description. My son is almost 17 now 😄💝 Thank you for the PoshLove! 💖
pamcakesyumyum
@gordomom lol no problem, at least you have one of these! I deleted mine so long ago thinking I’d stop poshing but alas I am back 😂. Thanks for your feedback on the measuring tapes! I know I would always lose mine so I figured people would love them, you can never have too many.
gordomom
@pamcakesyumyum lol - I’m rso got there with you! Many listings have just moved down because I can’t keep up with sharing (except when I “multitask” during meetings) 😄 Glad you’re still here! 💖
gemstone14kt
Thanks for the like I am open to offers@gemstone14kt 😊
jessalicious_99
Hey Michelle. I have a question. Lately I’ve been getting a lot of private offers for items that I haven’t even made an offer for. How are they able to do this? I cannot figure this feature out. Can you help me, my mentor?? 😬😜😊
gordomom
@jessalicious_99 Hi Jessica - it’s a new feature that I’ve heard is being rolled out in phases. It allows you to send an offer to all who like an item. It works even if you have previously lowered the price during CCOs, so that you can still notify potential buyers if they missed a CCO notification. You do have to send at least $1.50 off shipping as part of the deal (or free if you’d like). I’ve heard mixed reviews, including that buyers feel like it’s a way of spamming.
gordomom
@jessalicious_99 part 2: I’ve only gotten a few and it’s a way to find out if a seller might be willing to discount more privately than publicly. Hoping they’ll give us the ability to turn off the notifications if people don’t want to see them though. 😊
gordomom
@jessalicious_99 oh also it has to be at least 10% below the asking price too 💝
jessalicious_99
@gordomom hey Michelle. Thanks for getting back to me. I’m not sure that I’m digging this new feature. My feed is getting inundated with private offers. It’s sort of making me not want to like stuff. I feel awful with I don’t accept the offer but If I did, I would be broke and have a mountain of debt. Thanks for shining some light on this.
gordomom
@jessalicious_99 lol - that’s what I’ve heard from others, but I just ignore them or unlike the item if I no longer want to receive offers. Hopefully they will add the option to turn notifications on/off! 😊
katwil
You could charge more for the larimar piece on the ss wire .. I would say at least $75.
hairdo0
Thanks for the like😊
lovetodecorate5
Hi there! I decided to keep the shorts that you had made an offer on.... but I forgot to remove them from my posh selling closet!🤦🏻♀️oops! I truly apologize!

Hello 😊 Cute closet 👍I'd like to invite you to check out my eclectic ever-growing closet. I sell a cool array of Ladieswear, Menswear, and other unique goodies too. If you have any question about Poshmark, or anything in my closet, I'll be happy to help you out. ✌💛
gordomom
@ahuot Hi Andrea - nice to “meet” you! Thanks for stopping by and offering assistance. I see that you’re a newer user and wanted to let you know that advertising in other peoples’ closets is generally not advised. I wanted to let you know before others “yell at you” or block you. Hoping you’ll continue to have a wonderful experience on PM as I have. Happy Poshing! 💝
jens_corner
Hi I saw your name in a 2014 posh event that you participated "With a Smile: Team Posh Shares its Customer Service Secrets:
jens_corner
I saw that you have knowledge of posh etiquette. I am in a very uncomfortable situation - would love your advice. Seller @ jbier, doesn't want to ship a Tiffany item that I accepted to buy via her own initiated offer.
jens_corner
Instead, she offered another Tiffany replacement, but before I could even consider any item to exchange with - she withdrew that offer and asked me to replace with other non-Tiffany items which I am not interested in. Seems like a bate and switch! Is she obligated to send me the original item I purchased? Should I report the seller for "unsupported item?' This all just seems wrong and doesn't leave me with a positive feeling.
jens_corner
By the way, as a lover of jewelry, I love your closet!
gordomom
@jens_corner hi Jen, nice to meet you! Always happy to help out! What a bummer that the seller isn’t able to follow through with the sale. It has happened to me in the past where I have found a defect that I didn’t notice before and offered to cancel a sale for the buyer. Did she explain why she changed her mind on the sale? I think I’m running out of characters so I’ll continue in another comment 😊
gordomom
@jens_corner also, I’ve had issues where I couldn’t find an item that I sold, so I had to cancel. Not sure if either of those happened. The unsupported items are typically items that don’t comply with Posh policy (video games, furniture, anything against USPS policy like perfume...I even saw a pizza posted once) 😄 I think I would just say no thank you to the non-Tiffany offer, move on and look for another similar item.
gordomom
@jens_corner Not sure if this has helped at all, but please do let me know how things work out! There will be another out there for you one day...I find way too many treasures on here! 😄💝
jens_corner
Thanks for the advice. At first, I was very sympathetic when she told me that she had sold her sister's jewelry by mistake, and offered to exchange the Tiffany necklace I had bought for a Tiffany ring. I was willing to work with her but, then she rescinded the offer, once again. She did this a total of three times, she kept changing her mind - to any offer she initiated.
jens_corner
Finally, I just stopped answering at it seems like she was having her own monologue. It was apparent it was not about the Tiffany item - it seemed like she regretted the 'sale price' she had committed herself to. Very disturbing. Would hate any other buyer to experience what I just went through. Thanks though for listening.
jens_corner
Oh, I do so appreciate sharing my closet! Just started poshing this summer. Thanks again.
gordomom
@jens_corner omg it sounds like a nightmare! Sometimes better to just move on. There are definitely other beautiful items out there and at good prices. I’m so sorry that you experienced that. Most Poshers are amazing and I’ve made so many friends here on Posh so I hope that you have better experiences from here on out. Definitely feel free to stop by any time you have questions. I’ll also tag you on some other really helpful closets.💝
jens_corner
Awww, you have such a lovely family. Thanks for the advise, the tags and everything. One good thing about my experience is that I met you.
gordomom
@jens_corner no problem at all! Let me know if you need help with anything else! Happy Poshing! 💝

Hi! Thank you for the likes 😍 Please feel free to make a bundle or offer, I’m in the mood to sell ⚡️ Also, your story really moved me. You are a true survivor 🙏🏼 Wishing you health and happiness in 2019

@konamicha21 oops I think I just shared this post to you. Sorry about that. Just wanted to have a less public place to chat if you prefer. I’m sorry to hear about your sibling and kitty. The posh community is amazing and so supportive. I’ll tag you on a post as an example of what some gals did to support me a few years ago. 💝

Love that Yoga on the board 🧘♀️🧘♀️
gordomom
@konamicha21 it was so fun! We are going there for spring break in a few weeks so we might try it again.
How are you? Hope all is well!
I’m in Seattle again. My mom is not doing well. Her siblings are traveling in from all over the world and I think she is hanging on to see them. I’m so grateful to be able to spend time with her.
konamicha21
@gordomom I’m so sorry about your Mom🌷 wish her peace and love💗 Yesterday, was a year since my only sibling passed,Ken Miller. It feels so lonely 💔. Are u living in Vancouver?
gordomom
@konamicha21 oh no, I’m so sorry. Those milestones can be difficult. I’m sending you lots of love and hugs. I appreciate your support as well.
Yes, I live in Vancouver, so I’m up here quite often. Do you ever go to the Portland area? We have some Portland Posh meetups coming up in the next month or so. They often have meetups up here in the Seattle area though.
konamicha21
@gordomom I have an Aunt and Uncle in Portland 💜 They are really a neat couple💗
gordomom
@bethanysthreads yes, I will be there! I’m doing a closet consultation earlier in the evening but would love to meet you afterwards!! 💝
gordomom
@bethanysthreads wonderful! It will be so nice to meet you and @doreen53 💞💞💞
hbbk2013
Happy to find your closet. You’re an inspiration🥰🥰🥰
gordomom
@bethanysthreads how fun! I requested to be at 6:15 (whatever is the first time slot). I think there are 3 consults at each time, so if we don’t get matched up, let’s definitely chat! 💞💞💞
gordomom
@bethanysthreads no worries! We will definitely meet up. Definitely don’t be shy. This is such a fun event & opportunity to meet other locals - usually a lot of squealing & hugging over meeting people in person for the first time when we know from the app. It’s such a difference from our early meet ups with just a few people. I would recommend bringing business cards if you have them. I also take photos of people with their name tags (name & username) to help me remember everyone. 😄💝
jaymiester21
Beautiful family, beautiful momma!! Hello fellow poshmarker! 😝

@jaymiester21 Hi Jazz - nice to “meet” you! Thank you for stopping by to say hello! 💝
gordomom
@bethanysthreads wow - it’s so neat to find people who have other non-fashion things in common! I look forward to hearing more about your family! I don’t think she will be attending this time but we should definitely make plans to meet up sometime. My schedule should free up later this year, but at least we can meet next week!
gordomom
@bethanysthreads Don’t worry too much about what to wear. We will love you no matter what! 💝
Are you looking to carpool down there? I think some of the other Vancouver gals might carpool but I haven’t checked.

@ellasclosetxoxo awww, I love the toddler age. They’re so curious and playful! It’s great that you’re involved in something like Poshmark so early in life! There’s a lot of potential!

@mauishopgirl Thank you! I’m grateful that we had a chance to go there together in March 2018 (with my dad’s ashes). They both loved it there. It was one of the few places my mom asked for us to bring her.
I will definitely reach out when I plan. I’ve actually cleared with my boss to work remotely while I’m out there so that I can extend my trip. 😊

Apparently I’m too wordy and need to do a second message 😄
gordomom
@thisnthatgirl22 part 2
Such a small world & interesting how we meet people and have so much in common. I lost my mother in March as well. March will always be a bittersweet month for me now because my parents passed away 5 years and 3 days apart, both the week after my son’s birthday.
Thank you so much for reaching out. I do hope to meet you at PoshFest if not before then. I go to CA periodically for work, so maybe then.
redvineresale
Thank you so much for the Posh love! I am not from Portland, but I am here thrifting for the day. I met @castawaycloset and @blushingbella today and they told me about Portland Poshers on Facebook. I would love to meet you too sometime. 😊

@redvineresale How fun! They are both awesome! Did Joanna tell you about the furnishing clear out at Roz & Ali? Just in case you need clothing racks, mannequins, hangers, etc. I look forward to meeting you one day!
redvineresale
@gordomom no she didn’t tell me. Where is it located? I only know a couple of other Poshmark sellers, so it would be fun to go to some of the get togethers.

@shay0926 Hi Shay - thank you for stopping by and sharing your story! I’m very sorry to hear of your loss. I lost my mother in March 2019 as well and am still having a tough time. The Posh community has been so supportive over the years and I hope you will find the same!
I know that anniversary is coming up and those can be a tough time. Please feel free to reach out if you would like to chat. Sending you lots of love 💝

Thanks for the share. I just saw your closet and GoFundMe. Wishing you peace and healing.
gordomom
@fanijoy no problem at all! The Go Fund Me is actually for another Posher who is currently undergoing treatment for cancer. She is a wonderful mentor for so many people in this community, so I just wanted to help spread the word. Thanks so much! 💝
fanijoy
@gordomom Thanks for clearing that up for me. It looked like someone different, so I was wondering. All the best and happy selling. Peace
gordomom
@fanijoy no worries! I appreciate your kind thoughts. 🌷

@gordomom Michelle!! How’s my girl??? Had you on my mind today wanted to send you love and make sure you’re still doing ok. I had been going through a lot helping daughter with college & recently a wedding it got me behind with my friends ! Checking in to send you love Sweetie❤️@scarlettstained
gordomom
@scarlettstained Hello, my dear, so wonderful to hear from you! Was it your daughter’s wedding? Congratulations!!
How is Posh life treating you? I haven’t been doing as much, but need to really clean out my entire house now 😄
Things have been crazy here as well. My son is off to college this year but recently had pneumonia and missed almost 3 weeks of the 10 week quarter. We are trying to get him back on track. 💝
scarlettstained
@gordomom hi Sweetie!!!!❤️oldest daughter married I did all the florals,designed cake myself w/ decorator,did all the fabrics &food catering yikes!I bought a 2 story 1/2 constructed cabin on 6 acres right beside my home &she wanted to have her wedding in it instead of the church so I had to make a false drop ceiling event style from fabric because ceiling was not finished yet in the house! I made a pulley system&a hoist on 200lb rope.,hung a chandelier in center,made 2 arches done in sunflowers!
scarlettstained
My brother also has pneumonia! I’ve been praying like crazy as he was a preemie 1lb at birth with holes in heart and lungs so very vulnerable.im so sorry your son battling this too! I know how scary it is both my grammas passed last year both pneumonia.but younger people are usually stronger to bounce back.ill pray for full recovery of your son my friend!

@gordomom hi sweetie is your son recovered now? Just thinking of you my brother is finally well again from pneumonia. Thankful for that. Missed you ...wanted to reach out to my girl!😘
gordomom
@scarlettstained hi Charlotte - thank you for checking in! I’m glad to hear your brother is doing better! My son is almost completely back to health. He’s still struggling a little with strength (used to work out almost every day). With this virus issue, he’s home and finishing up finals.
How about you? How are things there? Do you have access to essentials and a good support system locally? Sending love and good thoughts! 💝
erinsclosetco
@gordomom sounds fun. Let’s touch base again after all this clears up. Thanks for the invite.

@gordomom ....Hi Michelle --- thank you for the recent share......if I may, since you've obviously figured out the secret to achieving a huge amount of followers in comparison to the Shares/Following numbers - how do you achieve that?
gordomom
@primeapparel Hi Steve - thanks for stopping by! Most of my growth has been inorganic through the Suggested User program (predecessor to the Posh Ambassador program). If you haven’t already become a PA, I would recommend it as it helps your following and can be used for marketing.
Other than that, I recommend engaging as you did here. I think following and sharing increases when there is genuine engagement. Hope that helps! 💝
primeapparel
@gordomom ....great - thanks Michelle for the quick response.
bayleigh30
Hey I saw on Instagram where you had mystery bundles do you still have some?

My brother was a professor at the U of W, great school. I have traveled to Seattle on business, nice city, especially Pike’s Place.
So sorry to read about your mother, I’m sure she is in a better place like all good souls.
I wish you and your family good health and fortune.

@gordomom thanks sweetie! You’re such a doll.We are good grocery stores here are still stocking food just tiny quantities.so if you don’t go early morning 1/2 the shelves are bare. But at least stores still open. They have closed so many state borders.How are things in your town?

@gordomom
Hello again,
No, unfortunately my brother is no longer at UW. He was the eldest son and was genius level, he was fluent in languages; he spent time in South Korea and Japan. Several years ago he was hit and killed by a drunk driver in the Boston area.
I read that you are an engineer, hats off to you as that is not an easy job.
Our area has been hit hard with the pandemic and I hope we all manage to survive it. We humans are so fragile!
Stay healthy!
gordomom
@marymax999518 Hi Mary - I’m so sorry to hear of your loss. Sending much love to you and your family, as well as wishes for health and safety. 💝
marymax999518
@gordomom
Thank you, my brother was an amazing person, I put him on a solid gold pedestal. I am glad he was a part of my life. I cherished him.
I am sad for all your sorrows too but what doesn’t do us in, makes us stronger and better. As Faulkner said: “We survive”.
Stay healthy!
gordomom
@scarlettstained Things are ok here. We only go out for a walk each day and then to the grocery store when needed. Taking things day by day and just hoping this starts to subside. Sending so much love and wishes for health 💝
gordomom
@marymax999518 Agreed and it’s beautiful that he lives on so strongly through your memories. Thank you for sharing your story. 💖
