Kathy from Valrico, Florida, USA

My birthday date is 21st April - same as QE2 of UK. You have the year right

Hi, Kathy! I am trying to post pics from the last year or so. I took the photo of the Anhinga in November 2006. Anhingas are quite common birds here in South Florida, and I have seen them as far north as Orlando. I read that they are tropical birds, found throughout the Caribbean, Central, and South America, wherever there is swamp for them to swim and fish in. They hunt while swimming, and are in the same family of birds as cormorants. Only Females have the cream-colored neck, the males are all dark. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anhinga

Just dropping in to say I hope you and your family have a great Christmas and New Year.

Mickey and family.

Kathy - I've sent you a personal message.

Wishing you and your loved ones a
wonderful, safe and relaxing time
over the Christmas Season.
May 2008 bring you all
Love, happiness and fulfilment.
From all here at Foxhaven Resort

Kathy & Rob and family - with Best Wishes for a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Love,

Kathy and Rob wishing you a wonderful Christmas and the happiest of New Years! Have lots of fun with your family xx

Thank you so much for stopping by.
Graduation was wonderful and I did not fall while walking across the stage--which was a big fear of mine.
Mike and the girl are my biggest supporters and without them I would not have been able to accomplish this huge event. Though the girl did not come until the end, she was a big reason for me to keep on going.
Now all I have to do is figure out what to do with this very expensive degree.

Hi Kathy', Thanks for dropping in. I'm an ex-tennis player regrettably as shoulder problems forced me to give up the game. There are quite a number of both indoor and outdoor courts here, although it's a bit cold at present to play outside.
I hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas and best wishes for 2008.

Wishing you a very merry Christmas and a great 2008

Good Morning, Kathy! - It is always good to hear from you! We are trying to plan a trip to Florida in January. My mom has been back in the hospital and I would like to see my parents again. If we do come and you are home, I would like to make plans to meet you. We are thinking about driving. Rick was concerned about roads, but being retired, we don't have to be in a hurry to get any where! He isn't fond about flying. He likes his feet on the ground! I will keep you informed as our plans transpire!

Rick has been busy "fixing up" a car for Jenny. She wrecked her car several weeks ago, so we are back to driving her everywhere. (She was okay.) Her classes finished this week, so that helps. She doesn't go back until January. We have to get her back on the road before we can leave town!

Yes, we have snow! 8.9 inches fell here yesterday. We still had snow from Thanksgiving. We live in the woods, so it is cooler around our house and we just hang on to it. We have another storm on the horizon for next week-end.

You have a very nice looking grandson. He looks like he is having fun.

Kathy, I hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas! Maybe I will finally get to meet you in the New Year!

You have been tagged. See the rules early on page 1 of today's (12/18 Australia time) posts.

Kathy, loved the YouTube.
Have a wonderful Christmas and all the best for the New Year.

I wish you a very Merry Christmas, Kathy

Hi Kathy,

Thanks for your comments! Today's cookies are chocolate chip, tomorrow's will be spritz decorated with colored sugar and candied cherries. Later, we'll do soft cherry and chocolate cookies (they'll clog your arteries just looking at them, but boy are they good to eat!) The hard part is giving them all away for Christmas.

Merry Christmas to you & yours!

Merry Christmas, Kathy, and

Hi Kathy. As much As I would love to come to Florida, I can't right now. I am willing to send you down some of our snow though if you want to cool off.

Hi Kathy. Thanks for stopping by place. I'll be glad to send you all the snow that falls in our driveway! I do not like winter at all - I have SAD and should be using my light box but who has time to sit by a light? Guess I could use it while I'm doing sudoku puzzle.....gotta go do my Christmas stuff before it's too late. Where is Valrico? My folks live in Venice near Gulf coast.

Kathy,
Wishing you Rob and all your family a very Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year.

Merry Christmas and a happy New Year to you and your family.


I wish you and your family joy and peace.

I wish you both and your family a Merry Christmas
and a Happy New Year

I've known Chudleigh for several years. My ol' pop used to send those cards to me for just about every occasion. When I opened your card, it kinda tripped me up for a second. Tell Ebony thank you for me with an extra milk bone and a real good ear rub. Merry Christmas to all of you.

Kathy thank you for stopping by my page.
I don't believe I was quiet about my school work--didn't you hear all the screaming I did?

I hope you and your family have a safe and wonderful holiday.

Kathy, Knock! Knock! Anybody home? It's a special time of year. Have you any room for a little bubbly? Well, then. I will leave this case of Veuve Clicquot Brut. I hope this messsage finds you and your family in the best of health and spirits. You are always a delight on the site. Celebrate the season.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Ebony, that game was fun.

Please pass on my barks to Mum and Dad (Kathy and Rob) and families for a very

Merry

and a

Ebony - thank you so much for your Christmas card.

Have a great holiday season & best wishes from our kids as well. PS "Hi" to Mum and Dad too!

We never had a lab, but we were always dog people. Mom and dad kept a dog until their last move. When I married, it was to a cat person so....

I believe what I brought was a 15 year old Aberlour. I have several singles in my cabinet. If he is not familiar with much more than Glenlivet then he might enjoy some of the others. Each one has its own characteristic. I enjoy Oban, Balvenie, Dalmore, Knockando and of course Aberlour. But what one person enjoys might not suit another though I've never tasted one I didn't like in some way. You shouldn't have any trouble finding it and probably not too expensive for you. Out here in Carry Nation country, its always a little more costly what with the 'sin' tax and all.

Kathy,
Wishing you and your family a wonderful Christmas and all the best in the New Year!

Thank you, Kathy, for the wonderful holiday greeting. When I first started coming to the Sudoku site, one of the things that brought me back was to see what you had to say each day. ... long time ago. I'd like to wish Ebony a Merry Christmas ... from Simon.

Holiday greeting to you and your family - I enjoyed your card - The wind is beating down the house here this morning and was snowing but seemed to have stopped now - thought it would be a wet Christmas. Thank you also for the thoughts and prayers for my Dad. Enjoy your day, Mary

to Rob



Thank you for your wishes

I hope he likes The Balvenie. We had a house full of bedlam for two days. No little short relatives yet though. #1 son gave me a bottle of Glenmorangie that we had to sample just before bedtime. I've been referring to Jim Murray's Whisky Bible for a while. It reinforced some opinions and dashed a couple of prejudices.

Dear Kathy...Thank you for taking the time to wish André and I good health...You are a very busy lady and I see that your birthday was not long ago. I am glad to add to your well wisher...Happy Birthday Kathy! Yes André has his picture taken with all the pies called Tourtières. Today he made lots of donuts...He is an excellent cook. It is snowing a lot right now...We are celebrating New Year with my daughter who will travel 8-9 hours by car to come and visit...We are very glad that she can make it. So nice of you to drop by...Wishing you and yours a Year 2008 filled with joy and tenderness.
