I'm back!

My computer died 2 weeks before Christmas and I wasn't able to get online much since.  My husband installed a new power supply so here I am!  I've missed everyone so much. 

First I would like to thank everyone for the Christmas cards received, they looked beautiful displayed and impressed my mother in law with how many we had in our first year of marriage :)  I was happy with how much she commented about how pretty and festive they looked.  I appreciate especially the personal messages I received in some of the cards and definately loved the added pictures I got in some of them. 

Secondly, I can't comment on every thread that has been posted while I was gone, but please know that I'm rejoicing with the people who are rejoicing and praying with the people who have asked, and commiserating with the people who hurt or are depressed or both.  I love you guys.

((((((Everyone))))))

Hey Catt,

Glad to see your back with us! I have been up visiting my family and friends for over a week now but heading home tomorrow.

Hiya Cindy!  I hope you had a wonderful visit with your family this past couple of weeks.  Please be safe on your trip home.  I would like to get together with you after the new year.  We are house hunting the older more established neighborhoods and would like to ask if you have an opinion on them.  Maybe even bring you along for ideas?

Catt

Hey Catt,

I made it back home yesterday and tired today lol. Look forward to getting together with you soon. I really don't know much about the neighborhoods around here been living here a little over a year myself. I can hook you up with the real estate agent I had if you want.

Hi Catt,

Welcome back! You've been missed.

Wishing you a healthy, happy and prosperous new year,

Hiya Barb!  I'm so sorry that Ben got the bad news.  I'll be praying that you hear from many potential companies for him to work with.  I really loved the picture you included with your card.  You are a beautiful classy woman.  Please see that in yourself. 

Catt

Thank you!

Welcome back !  you have been missed... 
And you are so right about all the Christmas cards - they did make a beautiful display!

Hiya Sheila!  I'm glad to be back and am working toward catching up with all that has gone on.  Thanks for missing me

{{{Catt!!!!!!}}}  I haven't been online much either but it is so good to *see* you today!  Hopefully I will be able to participate in the card exchange next year.  I was so afraid to sign up with my surgery scheduled and not sure how I would do...adding to that my terrible lack of sending cards to begin with! 

Wanted to tell you that my sciatica disappeared on the operating table.  Can you believe it?  I seriously can't!  I am able to just walk, walk, walk without any thought now. 

Hope you and your fur-babies have been doing well.  Vivienne has had a hey-day with the Christmas tree.  That poor tree looks like a rat's nest and most of the breakable ornaments did not survive the season, but oh what fun that little girl has had!  She's going to wonder where her big toy went when we pack it up this weekend.

{{{Big hugs!!!}}}
