I've been asked by a friend to let everyone know that one of the original hostesses, Catlover has passed away. May her soul rest.

Helping the world one seed at a time

When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant. Mary Ann LaPensee

Thank you, Kenny, for letting us know this very sad news.

I am without words.

We were given two hands to hold, two eyes to see, two ears to listen & two legs to walk. But why were we given only one heart?
The other heart was given to another for us to find.

I am so very sad to read this. Catlover was full of fun and a major part of this website when I first joined. My deepest sympathies to her family and friends.

A fitting song for remembering Catlover Karen....

I think the banana phone was the best joke she pulled on me!

Oh my gosh, Cindy - I was remembering when Weezie and Catlover were still here, and they had the race against each other to get more members on each of their coasts - Weezie being from the east, and Catlover being from the west. We had so much fun with that - that is my tribute to Catlover - I hope she is looking over both coasts and having the last laugh.

I have tried so hard to pull up some of our antics with Catlover Karen from the old forum, but I can't get to them because I don't remember my password to get to those topics.

Good luck finding something.
The only way I could find specific posts was to go into the control panel and use some secret magic.
...now I cant remember my password. blush

Thanks Cindy! I had saved my info on my computer so I got right in!

Here is my intro post, with both Weezie and Catlover welcoming me, and the competition began for me here about the coasts.

Catlover's welcome to me
