Kathi, do me a favor please and send me a quick e-mail message so I'll have your address again. I lost it when my hard drive crashed a while back and I'm in the process of re-building the list from an original copy I had . Some of these addresses will be invalid because folks change their addresses and don't notify me to update the list but you'll have quite a few that are correct.
Getting this list finished up again is my weekend project. When the a message come back as undeliverable, I'll remove the addresses from the list and re-send it to the names that are left as the most correct listing we have available. In the meantime, if anyone reading this has a "new" address send it along to me and I'll correct the list as much as possible before I send it out Sat.

Thanks - Pat

Kathi, I did know about your brother and I am so sorry. I can't imagine what you all have gone through. Your kids sound happy and successful ... you dun good girl! Enjoy your time off. We have 62 this morning but it has been rainy, so not sure we will see the sun today.

Patti: No, you did not send me the email list but it would be great if you did. Raw and chilly here today. It was 42 degrees at 8:30. No school for the rest of the week. Vermont Teacher Convention, so today was like a Friday. No big plans, probably the yard, garden cleanup for fall. Our leaves are just falling so we will probably still be raking in November. I don't think the leaves were that vivid this year, maybe from the wet summer. Thank you for the welcome. You all will have to tell me what you do, etc. It is nice to connect with you.
Hi, Kathi. Welcome to the blog from me, too! It was good to get caught up on your life. I have musician kids too--my daughter and my middle son. They're both in bands and have gigs around here. It takes a lot of persistence, maybe even more in L.A. where they're not so good about paying musicians. I've heard that they're better about that in other places. Maybe there's just too much competition here.

Patti, I'm looking forward to getting those leaves! I actually wrote a poem a few years ago called "Craving" cuz I had such a craving to see those beautiful New England leaves.
Hey Kathi, of course no one minds, WELCOME. The purpose of the site is to share and keep in touch and support each other. Not as many since the class reunion. I joined just after and its nice to hear about different lives etc. Its till warm here in GA. Mike Grahams bro lives only a town or two ovger from me and has for quite some time. A kid a went to kindergarden with in Ct lives just the other side of town. The net brings much together and the great thing is you can just listen in or participate.
Good morning all! Especilly hi to you Kathi, It's great to hear fromyou again. I can attest to how now her cards are because I was the lucky recipient of one some time back.
Hard to think of any of us having grandkids. I'm ready I think to be a grand parent but I know my sons are sure not ready to be parents. So I'm patient. None of us needs that added to our already complicated mix.
Did I ever send you a listing of the class e-mail addresses Kathi? I don't remember after I lost all the addresses if I ever re-built it?

How bout those Red Sox!!

Sending your leaves tomorrow Lori!!!! I picked some beauties yesterday and they are drying now.
Karen, I have been working for 18 years as a Para in Kindergarten. Now I am working with Angela Asermelly at Union Street School. I like working with the younger kids...they usually still like you at the end of the day! My oldest daughter, Suzanne, is 28 . She has been living in NYC since college. She is trying to get into the music business and has a band, or is in a band. She is very artsy and musical. My middle daughter, Amanda, graduated from BU, moved to Raleigh, NC, got married , has the cutest little redheaded 2 year old son and is expecting a baby in December. We don't get to see Caleb that often which is hard. And Andrew, having been to college in Maine, moved home this summer for a while to regroup. He is working at Best Buy in West Leb. for the moment. Its actually quite nice to have him home. Our schedules are so different that I really don't see him that often. It has been extremely difficult dealing with my brother's death in Iraq in May. I have been trying very hard to stay busy! I do a lot of creating. I like to make cards and have come up with some that I have been selling. The teachers like to buy them and there is always a birthday or some holiday to make new ones for. So between family, work, house, yard stuff (though I have a new mower back in the house!!! My Son.) I try to keep busy. Its a big production to go shopping from here as you know! Please tell your Mom hi for me. Thanks for listening and making me feel welcome. Happy thoughts, Kathi

HI KATHI! So nice to see you here! I drove by your house this summer when I was with my mom. Hope you are having a nice fall. How old are your kids now and where are they? Do you work? What do you like to do in your spare time? I would love to hear about YOU! Are you still funny and bubbly like high school days?
Hi. It is fun to get an insite into all your "exciting" lives. Traveling, redecorating, sharing ideas and thoughts, reaching out to your friends. It is nice that you still all share that friendship after 30 years. Hope you don't mind that I join you sometimes. Happy thoughts are sent to all.
Okay, Patti, now I'll be waiting for them!

Patti, are you serious? In case you are, it's 13913 Chandler Blvd., Sherman Oaks, CA 91401. You may be kidding, but even now I can't seem to shake the habit of believing everything I'm told.
Not sure why that posted 3 times but lets take it as a sign of my sincerity.
