My birthday was June 9th -- Spaw and I were born a day apart in the same year. My birthday this year was very hard for me...the first year in 34 that Tom (Curmudgeon) didn't share it with me. I had trouble even thinking about it; no matter how fleeting the thought, the tears would come. I ended up spending most of the day in quiet contemplation, reading the Mudcat birthday threads for me that Tom had started and the thread he started when I broke my arm five years ago. Besides Tom's comments, there were posts by Catspaw...Barry Finn...Katlaughing... They will ALWAYS be part of the Mudcat community. Linn
