Ketchup ... catch up, that is!

Losing a loved one is very difficult.

And it's not a great way to start off the year.

My daughter's friend lost her mom.

Here's the card that was sent.

 

If you remember reading this then you'll see that I am trying really hard to abide by

my 15 for twenty-fifteen.

 

I've really been pretty successful in most of my 15.

I fell a little behind on number 6

but I didn't let too many days go by before creating my first thank you card for the year.

 

My dear friend, Carol, celebrated her birthday the other day.

In addition to this card, we had a great phone conversation.

I miss you, Carol!

My Aunt Margie was so good with identifying
cousins, second cousins and all those "once removed" ...

 

I'm not good with those.  As a matter of fact, I have no idea who's who.

This is about as good as I can do.  This card went to my cousin's daughter's son.



Anybody out there know what label to put on him other than "just cousin?"

Happy 18th birthday, Logan.

 

Our friends, Pat and Don, celebrated their 10th anniversary.

Congratulations.

 

Happy 91st birthday, Leta.

She loves to watch the birds and I'm sure she's waiting for Springtime

to see some eggs in the nest.

 

The Runner wanted to thank his friend for some guidance about school bus driving.

Jim was the driver when The Runner first began as a monitor.

I guess he's helping me out with my number 6.

 

And one more birthday card.

I hope your birthday was all you expected.  Happy birthday, Sheneen.

 

This was supposed to be a birthday card

but Nancy's son sent this to her for Valentine's Day.

What a guy!

 

Saving the best for last.

As requested ... a "girlie" card.

I had a good time with this one, starting with the garter!

Happy birthday, Donna.

 

Sympathy, thank you, birthday, anniversary.

I hope these cards put smiles on a few faces.

Nothing like getting a real card in the mailbox, right?
