Happy birthday, Sandy Patton. Today we'll "be easy and free, when we're singing for thee," (thinking of one of the many songs we might not know but for you).

Sandy, We are so thrilled that, through Mudcat, we've had the chance to get to know you & Caroline & call you friend. Bill & Lorna hope that nasty cold is better soon & are sorry to miss seeing you. I'm saving a special birthday hug for the next time we meet. And I was *thrilled* to see who started this thread! Hope this means you are back on your feet, Karen!

Grateful greetings to all of you from the dark recesses of this den of antiquity. Now I'm older that Greenhaus again, too, Bob. Thanks for the cards, Kendall. Most especially, thanks to Karen K. for a reassuring personal note. I've been around, Alison, and have been reading many of the posts. I just didn't see many threads to which I felt I could contribute anything of value.

From now on, folks, I'm only making note of SDBs (significant digit birthdays). Don't want to set off the sprinkler system every year.

Affectionately,

Sandy

Happy Birthday, Sandy! I think I may be a tad older than you and if you feel about them as I do, birthdays come around far too often. It's better than the alternative though.

Hey, Sandy- happy day! I hear thru the grapevine you've got a rotten cold- so hope you begin your birthday celebration by feeling better! You are too special to be allowed to feel rotten for very long. Hope to see you soooon!

But Joan wasn't mentioning the wind chill factor. Brrr. too cold to do anything but clean or Mudcat

Hope you are staying warm and coddling that cold Sandy. It's hard to blow out all of those candles with the sniffles, although a sneeze works well, but ruins the cake.

SANDY,

Wow, I can just hear this whole group of posters here at your thread singing up a storm for you at Camp Friedman. Congratulations and many more great birthdays to you, my virtual dad & mentor, even though you're old enough to be my great grandfather. May the candles on your cake not set off the smoke alarm and may the sprinkler system (when it goes off) bust up the orgy so that when the cops get there they just find a bunch of happy but exhausted people.

Love,

Art
