Kate from TX

Sweet! I have a page. Hope someone will visit me here.

Hi Kate, welcome to the world of Gath.

Hi, Kate! Welcome to your very own page here among the many great inhabitants of Sudokuland! Here are some tulips and a box of Frango Mints to welcome you.

Kate,
Welcome to sudokuland and your own page.
I have left you a bouquet of Iris on the table.
My door is always open so stop by when you get a chance.

Thanks everyone! Wow, how about some bluebonnets and indian blankets from me to you. and I have some fresh cookies and cream blue bell ice cream for you.
I'm still figuring out how to use the site.

Welcome Kate, have fun with your smilies, I'm not logged in here at work as I am still logged in at home, so I cant give you flowers etc today. Welcome anyway and enjoy.

Off to NYC to see my daughter graduate from NYU. How time flies. I'm a grandmother, too. My oldest has a five month old baby. I don't know how to do flickr but if I did you would see pics of her. In case you are interested you can view, mostly her at
www.paulandgreta.com
If anyone wishes to tell me about putting stuff on flickr you can. I tried but it must be too high tech for me.
thanks, friends.

Hi Kate,
To open a Flickr account go to Flickr.com
If you have any problems ask on my page and I will try to help you.

Kate
well done and Gabi is a real cutie

Kate,
Glad I could be of help. Gabi is a doll, will keep checking back for more pictures.

Hi Kate - to Your own page in Sudokuland. It is great to have you here. Gabi is so cute! Thank you for the ice cream. (I love ice cream.) It was great! I have left you a bottle of Traverse City Cherry Wine. I hope you enjoy it. Come and visit me some time. I love to have company. Cheers!

Hi - Me again - I looked at your pictures on Flickr. I had forgotten how quickly babies grow! Gabi made a cute bunny. She looks like such a happy baby. Thanks for sharing your pictures. They were fun to look at.

Kate - welcome to the community!! Where in Texas do you live?
I am looking forward to retirement in a year or two, no grandchildren yet.

Hi Kate! to the Sudokuland family My traditional gift is a big pot of Maryland Cream of Crab soup for you to enjoy with your guests. Drop by my place anytime, door's always open

Kate - Thank you for your visit. My Knabe is in rough shape, also. It is a Baby Grand. I had an estimate several years ago that it would cost about $5,000 to $10,000 to refinish and restring it. That is a lot of money. We are looking into retiring to Virginia. I don't think I would want to put that kind of money into it, to move it that many miles. I love the tone of a Knabe. I have an electronic piano, but the sound just isn't there. They don't compare to an accoustical piano!

Hi Kate, thanks for stopping by.
Just how do you work flicker?

Kate, you have a priceless treasure in your possession. You are very fortunate! Do you play the piano?

MR ED from Minnesota, you can register for it, like Sue from OK said above, at flickr.com. but you have to register as a member on this page in order to upload pictures here. but if you are the same ed from Minnesota as above them you have registered.

Hi K A T E
Congratulation to have your own page.I am very pleased to visit You having with me these very beautiful flowers ,hope You enjoy it.
K A T E
You are to Your own page.
You are to My own page.
You are to visit my 'Egyptian Guest House any and every time You wish.

Hi Kate,
From the old Scottish meaning of cutty sark, it is a short skirt or dress. In the Burns poem he shouts the remark at the young witch because of what she is wearing.

Hello Kate, came by to listen to your Youtube. It was very nice. Gabi sure is a little sweetheart. What a smile. Had to check out you pics on flickr, too. I've had a lovely visit. I have left you a box of Purdy's assorted chocolates. Come by and visit me sometime.

Yup, same Ed. I did the flickr account thing. Tried to upload pictures and it wouldn't take them. I tried from 'my pictures' and from 'Picasa' ,from google. flickr wouldn't except either one. I'll keep playing with it.

Yea!!! Picture has been placed on my page. Not of me just taken by me.

Hey Kate, Sorry for taking so long to answer. I live in Bartlesville. We are about 40 miles north of Tulsa. I know what you mean about the rivalry of all the schools. We have OSU and OU alumni in the family also thoses who just like a certain schools. They tease one another but that is all, which is good.

Kate - FABULOUS youtube.

Thanks for the help Kate in uploading pictures. Taking pictrues is something of a pastimes for me. Love to take my camera for a walk.

Kate, glad you liked the YouTube. Saw them on Leno one night. When I found the video, knew I had to put it on. Love the steel guitar.

Kate - I don't think I even mentioned that I used to go watch Lyle on Friday evenings at Mr. Gattis pizza! He has come a long way since then.
He is also an incredible guy.
I didn't recognize all the names you mentioned as musicians - I am going to look them up.

Kate - yes, I went to A&M - two degrees and 250 credit hours worth!
My mother taught kindergarten at the church right across the street from where Lyle and Robert Earl Keen lived. She used to take her kids over and they would sit on the porch while the guys played music for them! That was 'This Old Porch' that the song was written about.
What memories.

Kate - you mentioned 'your writer' Louie Bond. Is that the same Louie Bond that wrote an article about Jacob's Well on the Wimberley.com website?

Kate - nope, I don't know Louie, but what is weird is that I worked for years with Louis Bond here in College Station!
I strongly suspect if they sang the porch song for my mother's kindergartners that they changed the words. Those guys were/are Texas gentlemen, and I suspect they were very glad to play for the kids! I saw Lyle for years after he left when he still came back to play at coffeehouses and such.
If you are ever famous enough to have your own writer, I can say I 'knew' you when!!

I didn't see your picture before I wrote the last comment. What a gorgeous little girl!!

Thanks for the ice cream Kate, between you and Greg I'm going to be the size of a house in no time! Please share the Native Pepperberry cheese I brought back from Tasmania

I'm repeating myself as I answered your questions on my page, then thought that I should visit directly.

The youtube video is a band called OK GO. Their website is www.okgo.net check it out it's very funny. They have the most incredible coordination I've ever seen.
The avatar was borrowed from a wallpaper (as in real wallpaper, not for the computer!) sample image, I just resized it with a photo editing program. It took a couple of goes to make it work.

PS. Your granddaughter is absolutely beautiful!

Hi Kate...About 3 months ago I became very ill and had lots of tests done but all showed me to be in good health. It turned out that it was stress. I was finding it very difficult to live the life of a carer and it was an agonising decision to make to move on. Mark was very upset and it was all very distressing.
I do have a new/old man in my life. By that I mean that he is a person I used to go out with in my twenties and we never really stopped having feelings for each other. So here it is 23 years later and we have finally started a new life together and it's all just wonderful.

Yes, he is still suffering from his condition and it is all very sad. I do hope he finds somebody who can give him the support he needs both emotionally and financially. He is a lovely man and it's so sad that it didn't work out for us. I just couldn't do it.

Hello Kate - I'm rather late paying my first visit to you and welcoming you on board, so here's some and a bottle of our local Wignall's Late Harvest for you to enjoy.
I just checked out your You Tube of Men At Work, great one, thanks.
Cheers

Hi Kate

I don't know if a fishing guy or a golfing guy is best. I do both even the seasons tend to overlap. I enjoy both but fishing is my all time favorite for relaxing. I have a boat and like to get on the lake most weekends when we have descent weather.
Thanks for visiting my page.

Hi Kate. You have had your own page for quite a while and I haven't visited, so shame on me! I have a traditional page warming gift of a double chocolate fudge beavertail pastry from Ottawa. Hope you like sweet pastry. Enjoyed seeing your family pictues on Flickr. Where's your photo? Cheers!

Hi Kate Thanks for the visit. What a great poem you left on my sight. I have a family in Hutto, TX near Austin. You have a great family. Try these crappie fillets, they are great.

Hi Kate!
Your little granddaughter is darling. Looks like she enjoys chewing shoes just like our new puppy! See you were able to figure out how to load pictures using Flickr. Did you know when you sign into your Flickr account you can just click on any of the captions & change them? That way you can show names & dates or whatever you want to put with each picture rather than SAMSUNG DIGITAL CAMERA. Other people on the site have helped me learn a lot about how to do different computer things, so I see this as a chance for me to help you. We're all in this together. Please come visit my page someday. I'd love to see you.
