Redwitch celebrated her 57th birthday today with the help of some new friends on Talk of The Villages. Great fun. We should plan more. Meeting Tuesday was at Starbucks on route 466 near WalMart. Redwitch was presented with birthday cake and best wishes from

I'm jealous! Looks like everyone enjoyed themselves.

Jan, thanks for getting those pictures up so quick, what a fabulous looking group, happy birthday red, wish I could have been there, looking forward to the next photo/meeting op....Ed.

[Taltarzac]

Happy Birthday, Redwitch. ;D

Sorry, I could not make it. I am not very good at singing Happy Birthday. Not very good at singing anything, but Happy Birthday is one of the worst. Not even Paula Abdul could find much good to say about my singing.

[Peggy D]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY REWITCH!!!

Great job, Jan

:#1:

[nhsnowbird]

Great pictures! Redwitch looks like you had a WONDERFUL birthday party. Thanks for giving the rest of us a little view of heaven.

Pat :)

[KathieI]

Hey Red, Happy Birthday, and many more. We were glad to share your birthday with you and Jess. It was so much fun. Did you like the cake?

Jan, thanks so much for taking the pictures and getting them posted so quickly.

I finally experienced the train noise and I do feel sorry for you guys. Its pretty awful.

Thanks all for coming, Kath

Aw, thanks guys! Great pics Jan. Um, am I really that fat???? Boy, do I need a diet. After the chocolate cake, which I'm saving for dessert tonight.

What a joy it was to meet such a great group. Now I really, really want everyone to come for Thanksgiving dinner. Shame more of you can't come.

[Donna]

A BIG Happy Birthday to Red Witch..
:hot: :beer2:

ONe of these days< hopefully before this time next year Dewey and I will be villagers and will celebrate our new life with everyone. Barbara

[Barefoot]

TOTVers are a great bunch of people!! :bigthumbsup:

Thank you to Jan for the pictures, it was nice to meet your wife. Thanks to Donna for her enthusiasm and persistence in setting up these meetings. Thanks to Kathie for her organization and great spirit. Happy Birthday Red. (And thanks to Nonie for shopping with me and navigating). As time goes on, (and we get our t-shirts), our numbers will grow!! :clap2:

[amityk]

Nice to meet all of you today, and thanks for your support of Talk of the Villages! Happy Birthday to Redwitch. And good luck to Jessica in her new job at Applebees!

Happy Birthday Redwitch. The pictures are wonderful. Looks like you all had a great time.

[Hyacinth Bucket]

Happy Birthday Red,

Wish I could have been there to celebrate with all of you and meet everyone. Did have coffee at Starbucks today.

This evening we had dinner with people who live in TV. First time we ever met them - guess Tuesdays are good days for meeting new people and drinking coffee.

Have a great day Red and a wonderful year.

Hyacinth Bucket

[Donna]

Amity,

It was so nice to meet you, thanks for joining us.. :bigthumbsup:

Hope to see you in chat!

[TV MAN]

Happy BD RED :bigthumbsup:

Looks like you all had a great time. Jan great pic's keep up the good work nice to put faces with names.

[KathieI]

All, when our spirits are down or a little scared, continuing to look at the good times we had and it will help us to feel less frightened. I'm sure she'll be fine, but I enjoy looking at the fun we had on Tuesday.

Jessica, we hope Dee has a Speedy Recovery!! Good luck to you both!

Kathie

[UMRJM]

This was such a great idea lets hope that we can do this again when more of us are around. Again thanks a lot for the pic's and the names to go with them.

Ursula and Dick

[another Linda]

Took me forever to find these pictures -- must be search disabled. I feel like I know you all better now and want to come to the TOTV meet in March. So now I can look for actual people instead of looking at logos on shirts. Will we all be wearing our TOTV tees?

(not sure how to get this under the right topic)

[octcr]

Happy Birthday RedWitch!!!! What a nice gathering for your birthday celebration...wonderful picture's...I will be down December 29 and hoping to meet everyone at Crisper's in January...I have enjoyed this site so very much.

[scottke]

Happy Birthday Redwitch. Great pictures. It was really nice to put faces with handles. Maybe we'll get to meet some of you when we come in February to our new home.

[F16 1UB]

Julia I found the post that had the pics on it. Good idea you had to repost.

Take A Bow Folks. :bigthumbsup:

[KathieI]

16, why did you have to bring this picture back up? :verymad: :verymad: :barf:

Wait till I get you on chat later! :verymad: :verymad:

Your lucky I'm shy.... Kathie :redface:

[JohnnyM]

Happy Birthday Red, and many, many more. Sorry we couldn't be there to help celebrate. Thank you for the pictures Jan........Johnny & Barbara

RED ROSES FOR A RED LADY!

[nONIE]

Thanks Osh, I think Im gonna die!!!! They are big as life arent they! OMG. LOL! :o

[redwitch]

Nonie, they're a tad bigger than life! Jan's camera definitely added at least 10 lbs to each of us. That's my story and I'm stickin' to it. (Well, it actually did -- I KNOW Jess looks at least 10, if not 20 pounds lighter than these pics.)

And ty John, I do love roses (but the lavender ones smell sooooo much better). ;)

[JohnnyM]

Happy Birthday Red!

http://i249.photobucket.com/albums/gg233/johnnyme2008/1036small.jpg

Johnny

[nONIE]

Thankyou Red,

Thats one reason I am camera shy, it does add 10-15 pounds on. No self respecting woman in this world wants to look heavier then she really is! Someone is gonna pay for this!!! :realmad:

[lm01]

Happy Birthday Happy Birthday- open a jug and take a swaller-- comon and give a holler. Happy Bir......thday to you

[JohnN]

happy birthday redwitch! wish I were there

[Taltarzac]

happy birthday redwitch! wish I were there


Believe November 13 is Redwitch's birthday.

Has to the birthday of one of the 3761 or so TOTV members though sometime around now?

[redwitch]

Shhh Tal ... I'm enjoying getting more b'day wishes, especially when they're accompanied by Sterling Silver roses. ;) ;D

[nONIE]

Red, I know your enjoying the birthday wishes and roses but they keep pulling this thread up to the top! Please let it slip away quietly OK? ::)

Oh No! I just did it again!!!!!! :redface:

[JohnnyM]

Red I am running out of roses...Red, Violet and now Sterling Silver? Give a guy a break!!!

[Donna]

Red..You are really milking this birthday thing...http://www.millan.net/minimations/smileys/gaah.gif (http://www.millan.net)

[redwitch]

Jealous? ;)

Hey, I deserve to milk it! Just remember that little celebration cost me over $50K in med bills.

[Bernie]

I think you look great Nonie.

http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/gg287/Bugb8/TOV%20Pics/NonieTOTV.jpg

[Donna]

That is a beautiful pic..Barefoot and Noni look GREAT!!!http://www.millan.net/minimations/smileys/hi5.gif (http://www.millan.net)

[KathieI]

Nonie, don't you think you're a little overdressed for Starbucks???

Kathie :redface:

[redwitch]

Considering the camera adds 10-15 lbs (I'd say more like 20), how anorexic are you, Nonie?

[jerseygirl008]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RED. I'm sure you love all the roses, very nice. Great to see all the pictures of attendees. Hope to have my brother help me post my picture soon. Can't figure out how to do it. Nonie, I'm with you about the pictures. However, it's great to be able to put faces and posts together. Keep em coming.

[Barefoot]

HA....Good job Bernie. I recall Nonie wearing a red shirt. Hmmmmm strange. :dontknow: :a20: 040 1rnfl wav
barb1191


Bernie if you're gonna photoshop Nonie, do me also please! A picture of Julia Roberts will suffice. ;D

Barefoot

[JohnnyM]

Who's Bernie??? :dontknow:
Thank you RW

[redwitch]

Scroll up. Bernie morphed Nonie's "young" pic next to Barefoot.

[Bernie]

Barefoot --Glad I didn't upset you by posting your pic again. I thought you looked great just the way you are. As it is I'm in the spare room for the night. >:(

[Bernie]

JohnnyM

I'm Mr Nonie.

Hope to see you in TV soon.

[nONIE]

OMG,

I think I wanna die, can someone tell me how to erase this entire thread?????

[Donna]

OK girls..Lets take a vote!

Jan takes great pics but I think Mr Noni (Bernie) gets the job...http://www.millan.net/minimations/smileys/pokal.gif (http://www.millan.net)

[JohnnyM]

Thanks Bernie, between Red's roses and Nonie and Kathy's shyness, and Donna's jokes one can get lost in a thread :dontknow:
Hope to see you soon as well, Johnny

[Barefoot]

Barefoot --Glad I didn't upset you by posting your pic again. I thought you looked great just the way you are. As it is I'm in the spare room for the night. >:(

:cop: - Topicop: Please inform those TOTVers looking for wisdom to move to another thread! ;D ;D

Bernie: You are a silver-tongued devil for sure! In only 3 posts you've become Mr. Nonie. I agree with Donna, you've become Photoshop King :#1: and can revamp all our images.

Except for Donna, of course, who is a Princess as she is.

[Taltarzac]

OMG,

Believe only the person who created the thread can remove it. I have dumped some of the ones I had created.

Redwitch sure has had a lot of birthdays between November 13, 2007 and now. :joke:

Barefoot..I love you too..Thanks for the title..I love being a Princess..http://www.millan.net/minimations/smileys/princessy.gif (http://www.millan.net)

Better blow the dust off my crown...

Redneck sure has had a lot of birthdays between November 13, 2007 and now. :joke:



Tal:

You need to run the spell checker - the November birthday girl's name isn't redneck.

(I had a friend in the 70's who's personal license plates were Neckred - he couldn't get Redneck as it was already taken so he got the next best thing)

That's a funny little mistake. My bad. I meant Redwitch of course who was only a redneck in terms of how she answered a question about whether you are a Republican, Democrat, or redneck. Think I also said I was a redneck in that situation.

[redwitch]

I am either going to get myself or poor Bernie killed but I just can't stop myself. This is too funny.

Poor Bernie sent the following PM to several of us: "After spending the night alone in the guest room, I had considerable time to contemplate Nonie & Donna's request to let this thread die. If I make another post, its going to be back to time out in the guest room. Hence the reason I'm sending a PM to all who helped make this a really fun thread."

Of course, that makes it an open invitation that just can't be resisted. Sorry, Nonie (and Bernie!). Hopefully, Nonie will forgive you and let you cuddle the night way. You tried.

Folks, for those who don't understand, my birthday was November 13. Tal may not have gotten my name right, but he certainly knew the date! (Tal, make your life easier, just call me Red or RW -- everyone else does.)

[Taltarzac]

OK Red. That will be harder for me to make a mistake with than Redwitch. I was getting ready to go to the Doggie Doo Run Run when I posted this and probably was thinking about making sure I put my sun tan lotion on to prevent getting a red neck.

[chuckinca]

Tal might have made it Beerfoot

[Taltarzac]

Tal might have made it Beerfoot


True. My last name in German means the place where they grow hops. That may be what they did too before they moved over from Germany.

Chuck you devil! Tal had it right in his post. Yet somehow witch turned into neck. Hm-m-m, wonder how that happened?

I edited if after the slip. ;D It used to say redneck. Redwitch is hardly a "redneck" in the terms of Jeff Foxworthy.

"Foxworthy's definition of redneck is 'a glorious absence of sophistication.'" from the Wikipedia definition of "redneck".

Poor Bernie..He is so confused..He said Noni & Donna..lol
I never said anything about this thread..I thought it was funny..Oh yes I did..sorry!!!
I was just kidding...http://www.millan.net/minimations/smileys/coffeescreen.gif (http://www.millan.net)

[nONIE]

This thread gets the academy award for being the most hijacked I have ever read!!! :#1:

[redwitch]

BTW Nonnie -- That's "fun for WHOM!" ;D Well, it's amusing me.

Tal, if anything, I would be a hillbilly -- guess that means a touch of sophistication is allowed.

And, yes, this thread has been totally hijacked. We'll let Jan worry about it and keep having fun! Anything to see where Mr. Nonie sleeps tonight. ;D

[nONIE]

by the way Red,

Nonie has one n in it!!!!

This thread is never gonna die!!! I just cant stand it!!! I think I will die from this torture before IT does! >:(

[redwitch]

Ok, so I can't type. mea culpa, mea maxima culpa

HUGS

[JohnnyM]

So far we have had Redneck for Redwitch.....Bearfoot for Barefoot.....Nonnie for Nonie, but who's counting.... Johnny :dontknow:

[redwitch]

roflao Johnny -- Sterling roses are the lavender ones! If you ever feel like spoiling your wife, get her a dozen of these -- last I heard they were running $150 for 12 and worth every penny.

Nonie -- do what I do. Just scroll to the last comment. I don't even look at the pics anymore (too painful). Remember, Bernie sweetly gussied you up. I still look somewhere on this side of obese! sob

[JohnnyM]

I knew that RW! Not really, I just thought you were hard to please. I didn't realize you were giving me a complement. Yes the lavenders were sterling. I do buy Barbara roses now and then but they are the usual "run of the mill" type. Now I have to reassess my purchasing options. Thanks for the heads up. Johnny

[chuckinca]

Chuck you devil! Tal had it right in his post. Yet somehow witch turned into neck. Hm-m-m, wonder how that happened?



He went back to it and corrected it with the "modify" button

[another Linda]

And here I though you were being clever (and funny.) and all the time it was just the modify button. sigh.

[Taltarzac]

He went back to it and corrected it with the "modify" button


I use the "modify" button a lot. You can rewrite history to a certain extent on TOTV. Unless, someone quotes you then its there for the whole Internet world to see.
