HAPPY GATHER ANNIVERSARY TO ME!!

May 25, 2009 11:18 PM EDT (Updated: May 26, 2009 07:25 AM EDT)
views: 155 | comments: 131

I just realized that today is my Gather Anniversary. I have enjoyed a year of fun here. I have made some great friends. I have not been on here much of lately. I have been very busy working full time and going to school full time also. I am enjoying time with my new grandbaby Lilly, and have had tons of company visiting me from Boston. In my spare time I am co-writing a book with my cousin about growing up in our family. I just want to take this time to tell you all thank you for the anniversary well wishes. What has everyone else been up to?

Donna - you were the first person to show me the fun here. What are we drinking to celebrate?

EM Jay right now a Coors Light with my company from Boston. I love you too.

I may have to card you for that Coors Light!

Donna S. May 26, 2009, 3:55pm EDT

Master Card or Visa?

Kerrell g. May 26, 2009, 10:46pm EDT

Taking the summer off. I may have a job lined up with a ball club here in town. Hope you got to see my last post on sub gigs. I did the ten best classes and the ten worst.

John I miss being on here and forgot how much fun it is. I promise to make more time for Gather. If it wasn't for my year on Gather I would nevr have found out that I can write and that to quote Sally Fields " You like me! You really like me!"

Con-Gather-lations! I'm glad I checked in tonight. I think Gather should have something like an automatic greeting when you reach that plateau -- like cheering and clapping sounds! Have lots of fun and thanks for posting this!

Donna S. May 25, 2009, 11:52pm EDT

Thank you Visionaerie I agree with you.

I so miss your cleverness dear.

I've been very busy myself this past year. With practically a new short story romance of mine coming out every week and having fun with my hubby and kids. And, of course reading more lately.

I hope to hear from you again soon.

And, I hope you had a wonderful Memorial day!
