I am sorry for not coming in sooner, but as they say better late than never ^-^
when winning something, you always feel this great "high" and then scratch your head going..what do I do now or at least that is how it has been for me...so I will say

Enjoy this time, from what I am reading you had a lot of votes and everyone who was on the ballot are some pretty cool people.

I hope that this winning will be just the beginning of many successes for you and your family!

A hearty congratulations to you

Best Regards

Diane

Thanks so much Amanda. I was up against some very deserving contenders and like you, they'er all good sports. Glad you were able to learn a bit more about me. There's still a lot more but it would take a book to cover everything in my lifetime. :)

Hello Evelyn,


Congratulations and very best wishes and well deserved recognition for being Person of the Year.

I so loved reading your bio as there was more information I did not know about you in the years and personal contact I have had with you.
Your early childhood memories of dinners with your huge family get together's, reminded me when my parents were alive we had some big get together's with my Mum's side of the family as she was one of seven children.
I did not know your son and daughter Jeff and Jenny were twins, I had assumed they had separate birth days.

Hi Kathleen, you're invited to come visit anytime. I have plenty of room now since I bought this house. And I think they're called gecko's or something like that, instead of lizards and I've learned one thing, they can jump. I have my cumputer set up next to a window and I've seen them jump from the shrubbery to the window ledge and back into the shrubbery. The geckos don't bother me, it's the snakes I don't like, like the one the second week I was here, that was stretched out in the shrubbery looking in the window at me.

Congratulations, Evelyn,

I'm glad your bio has been posted! You had a great year, you finally started posting more in forums and then started your own, and it turned out to be fun for you :)

We have some things in common...we both come from large families, I have/had 5 siblings, two were twins, and my mom had 8 siblings and she was a twin, and my dad had 4 siblings and he grew up on a farm in SD. I have 23 cousins on my dad's side and at least 13 on my mom's side.

I've never been to Tennessee...I went to Florida once a long time ago in April 2003, it was snowing when we left Michigan and windy and then Florida was around 85 and I got sunburned. The major difference besides the weather is...the lizards! Florida has tiny green lizards all over the place...instead of squirrels!

Congrats again and have a fantastic 2012, we expect to see your photo in a place of honor on the Adlandpro site every day for this full year...and this thread pinned to the top of the forum :)
