Thank you all, my dear, dear friends. Yesterday we had one of those days here at our house -- no water for 36 hours, Freya sneaking a pizza off the kitchen counter, and the smell of fresh polyurethane pervading the cold, damp house.... On the other hand, I had the loving affection of Tom and my DS Jacob, calls and cards from family, and greetings from all of you. And tonight we're going out to dinner to try celebrate again. Carla, Luanne, Jon, Anita, Lori, Ingrid, Sue, Carolina, Pamela, and Carol -- each one of your messages brought smiles and memories to my mind. I just realized that with the exception of Ingrid, I know each one of you in the Real World (as opposed to online) -- Ingrid, we'll just have to correct that soon. The only birthday wish I have left (besides more rain) is to hope that I get to see you all again as frequently and as soon as may be. Rosefolly

Thanks, everybody! So far it is a beautiful and snowy birthday here in Arkansas. Twinkie offered to take me out for lunch. I counter offered with a late breakfast. (He took the bait! LOL He knows I'm getting addicted to these flannel pajamas all day.) So far 60 feels just like 59 did. Fancy that??! LOL Happy Birthday, Pattico, my birthday twin!

Thanks, you guys. Happy Birthday to Pattico and Sandra, also!! Going to eat lunch with a Ya Ya friend of mine in a little while. The sun is shining. Life is good.

Happy Birthday to you both. Happy Birthday to you both. Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday to you both! Hopes it's a great day.
