I’m pooped reading the list.Good morning Cathy Cult.
legaleagle48 about 12 years ago
Well, really, Cathy. You were expecting them to actually stay home with all that outdoor gear?
millie p about 12 years ago
How did Cathy ever go out with someone who was a fitness freak, let alone get proposed to by them?

millie p, I’m guessing that after he went out with lazy Cathy that he did as a lot of us do and went to the opposite extreme. :-)
Wow, there’s a lot of night owls or people in other time zones this morning!

Good Morning fellow Cathy nuts rolling around here today. I guess since she is shopping for a gift, she just might attend the wedding. Better find something sporty to wear…next stop will be for her outfit, this could get interesting!!

I’d give them a gift of Phineas and Ferb for a day. No two on Earth more creative than those two. Maybe they could remake The Beak so the couple could fly around at will.
Morning Susan when you arrive :-) Morning lightenup being a little laid-back for the weekend. Afternoon Bronzepony and AnonaMona. Hope our fellow Cathyites all have a nice long holiday weekend (well, in the US anyway).
Hi Mom!serenasakitty about 12 years ago
Good morning. I hope everyone has a great long weekend.
AnonaMoaner about 12 years ago
No long weekends here! In fact, last time my OH had a normal weekend off he worked both days anyway. But have a good time if you get the chance.
NE1956 about 12 years ago
I dunno about the word ‘cult’ to describe us Cathyites. Cult is kinda creepy. How about something besides ‘cult’. Please? :-D
AnonaMoaner about 12 years ago
Well, “Coven” won’t do . . . how about “Club”?
As long as we all mean the cosy cookie-sharing kind, not the log with nails in it.
catsarge10 about 12 years ago
Cathy would have been miserable married to someone so active. This trip to the bridal registry should make her feel somewhat relieved! I like “Cathy Club” — I’ve also been using “Cathy Clan.” Have a great weekend, all!
soonergal Premium Member about 12 years ago
Can’t you see Cathy doing all that outdoor activity on the gift list? She has to know now he wasn’t for her! Hope everyone in the U.S. who has Memorial Day off has a wonderful long weekend!
gobblingup Premium Member about 12 years ago
Susan, here is an extra special greeting just for you!! I’m so sorry for missing you this morning!
HI SUSAN NEWMAN!!Bronzepony about 12 years ago
“Coven” sounds like fun AnonaMona! A “club” gives me the impression of a group of people all wearing the same shirts and sports jackets with prints on them – might be a language barrier I suppose. So I guess I’m with catsarge and the “Cathy Clan”. Have a nice weekend everyone!
Gretchen's Mom about 12 years ago
If Cathy didn’t realize it before, here’s her proof now more than ever that Alex wasn’t the right guy for her . . . and that she wasn’t the right girl for him. Win-win for everyone in this situation! Now, given where she is in order to buy a wedding gift for the happy couple . . . she should have no trouble at all finding an “elegant outdoorsy” outfit to wear to the wedding while she’s at it!!! ;-)
Aaron: Hope your first day back to work went well and that you didn’t overdue things . . . too much anyhow!!!!! By the way, loved your chocolate cupcake from yesterday. YUM YUM!!!!! It was exactly what I needed tonight!!!!!!!!!! ;-)
kittycatpawsare: Thanks for the really nice compliment yesterday. You’re very sweet and I really appreciate it!!!!! ;-)
Good evening and Happy Friday, lightenup, lightenupjr., Dr. K.F.G., Susan, lindz.coop, rgcviper, gmforde, serenasakitty, kittycatpawsare, hendelca, Gator007, legaleagle48, mollie05, AnonaMona, catsarge10, millie p, soonergal, Bronzepony, Molly mcgee, simpsonfan2, Shyygirl27, Violet Bay, AndiJ, BJIllistrated, ncalifgirl58, summerdog, ruizuno1, Wolf Emperor, FinnyGirl, exoticdoc2, marmar in MI and all the REST of the “Cathy” fanatics joining us here tonight. As always, it’s really great to “see” you all and if you’re new here . . . WELCOME TO CATHY’S NUTHOUSE!!!!! GLAD YOU’RE JOINING IN ON ALL THE FUN!!!!! ;-)

What does Cathy mean ‘normal’? Heck, I like some of what’s on that list to replace what’s wearing out, and then anything else that we don’t have. Not into kayaking though — white water rafting in Maine was the cure for more than swimming.
Friend Aaron is back to work. Not a dry eye in the house when his crew (including the daytime crew who stayed) saw him in his spiffy uniform coming through the station. Gabe even marched Aaron around the block on his shoulders. LOL they sure all do love each other. Like Aaron said, it’s like having a mess of brothers and sisters. Now we’re just hoping for a calmer weekend.
Hi Mom . . missing you!BillyJL about 12 years ago
Mom! looks like you and I were here at the same time. I’m getting ready to play basketball at GU. See you tomorrow :-D
rgcviper about 12 years ago
Must be a really active couple. At least, more active than I am.
I’d also like to point out that today, Cathy herself started the eye-rolling, in panel 2. Not a first, but a rarity.
I like the names of “Cathy Club” and “Cathy Clan”, although my vote goes to the Clan. Catchy, ain’t it?
Happy Friday, all, and enjoy your long weekend.
AnonaMoaner about 12 years ago
I suppose if anyone wanted to be posh, we could be Cathy’s Cornucopia – well, we seem to be growing rapidly at the moment! But I like Cathy’s Corner for the page. It fits very nicely.
kittycatpawsare about 12 years ago
