024 Greetings Chat Pack!
Last night I had to pack my computer as the movers came and took all our belonging to The Villages today, so I missed our chat. I am using my sister's computer toay, and think the monthly birthday meeting is a terrific idea! :beer2:
We will be arriving on 12/28, so we'll be there for the first meeting, too!
Actually we will be driving from NY on my birthday (12/26), so I'll be missing out on any celebration, but I will be getting the best present - retirement in The Villages!
Looking forward to meeting all of you! wav

PS - I still think we need t-shirts, and have been working on that Chat Pack logo...will follow up when I get to TV

[KathieI]

Trav, have a safe trip and a wonderful birthday. What a great New Year present, finally living in TV!!!

See you in Feb. Best, Kathie

[travelstiles]

Thanks Kathie! We'll be staying in hotels from now till 12/28, but I'll try to be online if I can get wi-fi along the way. 024

If not, have a great holiday wav

:bigthumbsup: I think this is a fun idea!

But, if you're going to call it the Chat Pack, I hope you won't exclude folks like me who don't participate in the chat room, but do peruse the pages almost everyday!?

Everyone should wear some sort of home-made name tag with their TOTV identity on it!

SWR: no one is excluded from our festivities.

There are many people who don't participate in chat room but who are still members of the TOTV family.

I, myself, am usually very quiet in the chat room and just observe what's happening ,

:joke: :joke:
so you're welcome to join us any time you'd like. We're all one big happy family.

I really hope this get together happens. I thought a few months ago there were posts about "girls" getting together for a night out. I don't think this ever happened unless I missed it. I also am never in the "chat room", however not a day goes by that I do not read TOTV. I did not attend the picture taking event at Starbucks, mostly out of shyness, but there are times I feel so lonely I look forward to meeting so many of you. Count me in!

[KathieI]

MSNPA: I think you're referring to the "slumber party"?? The good news, it hasn't happened yet. That is supposed to be in Feb. but definitely consider yourself invited, (provided you really are a girl, we have a lot of guys trying to push their way in, but no-go).

And, as far as being too shy to come to Starbucks, I wish you would've told me,.... I'm the designated driver for shy people and will pick you up whenever you want to come to one of the festivities so that we can all walk in together.

Oh dear, you won't be lonely after meeting us.... we're all in this together (right, girls!!).

Can't wait to meet you in Feb. Kathie

OMG..YOU are QUIET??????

Like a freight train going trough a nitroglycerin plant...

[KathieI]

Donna, at least it was a good laugh for everyone

Well, I am rather shy, really!! :redface: :redface: :redface: :joke:

I love the freight train concept. See its not just having the emotions available to you, it all how well you can use them... and you're the bestest... :#1:

I want to come to the March meeting. Actually I want to come in January and February too but ...

I bumped up pictures from the one celebrating Red's birthday.

[Hyacinth Bucket]

Hi Everyone,

I wish I could join you at Crispers in Jan., perhaps I can make it in Feb.

For all those who do not know Kathie and Donna, they are true wall flowers. They pull up a chair in the Chat Room and never say a word.

Have a great time.

so, where is the TOTV calendar??

I mean hoe can i look at it?

[KathieI]

: : What!!!
HB, I resent that remark. Donna is the instigator!! I'm quiet.... Kath

[Hyacinth Bucket]

Kathie, I just do not know what to say. I am flabbergasted - with your response. :dontknow:

Does Donna know this and agree with you?

I do not think I do. How is your Dad doing?
