My Birthday
18

It was amazingly awesome. I never really felt so loved an accepted by having people just showing up and acknowledging me today. I had my birthday at this city park where they had free music. Some people were from our Meet In group whom I've never met. Most were people I already knew as friends and showed up. I brought Costco champagne and made inari sushi, soba and bought manju for dessert.

Cute Widow with her daughter showed up. My kiddos showed up. It was all very nice.

See attached for the great card my kids made me. It's one of those Master Card commercials where the frame will cost $100 but the card is priceless.

Yes a LOT about me like how I have this ringworm on my butt ("too much information sharing" according to my card).

Yes TMI and for some reason the kids did not want to see my butt with the ringworm....


I do plan to have it framed along with a picture a professional photographer took last Fall.
