October Cards


My former colleague John celebrated a birthday this month.  John's wife Betty loves owls, so I included one here.  It was so nice to get a card from Betty after he got the card!  They retired just after I did, and sounded real good!

"To help you celebrate
This card is sent to say,
May good luck and good fortune,
Always with you stay.
May you find much joy and happiness,
In everything you do
And in this card is all our love
Sent especially to you!"

My former colleague Virginia also celebrated a birthday.  She loves animals, so I thought the black cat was appropriate.

"I hold some wishes in my hand,
And they are just for you,
I wish for joy and happiness,
Today and all year through,
I wish that you find sunshine,
In every single day,
For you deserved good things in life,
To always come your way!"


A high school classmate is in the hospital in my town.  Kathy and I had not seen each other since graduation (46 years ago!).  I included a picture of she and I from our homeroom days.
"Wishing you gentle showers of sunshine and flowers
and rainbows to color your day.
Thinking of you"

A former colleague Diana celebrated a birthday.  Diana, a baker and grandmother, is cheerful, talented and dedicated.

"Laughter, joy and happiness,
That lasts the whole day through,
Sharing your day with family
Is what I wish for you.
Birthday cards and treats
From your friends who wish to share,
Your birthday celebrations-and-
Show how much they care!"

 A former colleague Mike had a birthday.  Mike loves dogs.  I always enjoyed talking with Mike, as did our customers!  He called and asked Bob to thank me for the card.

"Today is very exciting,
It's a day that's just for you,
It's a day when you're made a fuss of,
For you deserve it-that is true,
You do so much for others,
So relax, have fun, unwind,
It's your turn to take the spotlight,
Because you're special-you're one of a kind." 

 Former colleague Marylene celebrates her birthday.  She's a lovely and caring person.

"Someone special, someone kind,
It is you that comes to mind,
Birthday wishes, Birthday treats,
A wonderful day that's hard to beat,
Friends to party, friends to care,
It's a day all want to shre,
Enjoy the time and what it brings,
Hopefully joy and beautiful things."

Our last outdoor Farmers Market of the season is this Saturday.  I do Farm Fresh Sampling once a month for my farm friends.  These thank cards are for the families and farmers who donate meat, produce and cheese for our demonstrations. 

"This card is sent especially to say a big thank you,
And to let you know you're appreciated for everything you do."
