Good evening y'all

When I looked in the mirror yesterday morning, my nose was bigger, ears bigger, and belly bigger.  Yep, it was 70 staring me in the face.  Eldersis, DH and I went out for a birthday lunch and had a good time.  We didn't mention the birthday to the waitress until it was time to leave, and she said; "Oh, you should have told me!  We would have sung Happy Birthday for you."  I told her that was exactly the reason we didn't!


I've been trying to keep up with my reading.  I hope all of you are doing OK.  I'll be thinking of Betty tomorrow, and hoping for the best outcome. 


It's back to the clinic tomorrow for DH; they want to do another carotid ultra sound.  He had small stroke on the Saturday before Memorial Day.  He fell, just barely missing the corner of the heavy glass dining room table, but managed to get to his feet with a little help from me.  We didn't go to the ER, because *it was* a holiday weekend.  There would have only been some 'who shot John' ER Dr. and all of the people in town with no medical insurance flooding the place.  We stayed quiet at home, even though we had invitations from DBIL & DSIL and their kids to spend the holiday picnic time with them.


I've been trying to coax some of that rain down here; I was successful on two days, because I sprayed weed killer on the English Ivy, and it promptly rained on each afternoon.  I'm doing  my best down here girls.


There is a meeting at the kitchen sink; all of you are invited.

Happy Birthday to you -- Happy Birthday to You... How nice you were all able to go out for dinner. I wish you good luck tomorrow at the clinic. I will join you at the sink--if it's still open--pretty late in your neck of the woods. I will be very, very quiet :-)
I will be sending good vibes your way tomorrow!!

Lottie,
My birthday was June 12 and I felt the same way - LOL. Never mentioned it to the waitress, but at the casino I had to sign in and the Happy Birthday message kept flashing at the machines. Did they need to keep reminding me that I was 68??

Happy, happy Birthday Lottie and many many more! I'll be thinking about you today when you take dh to the doctor's.


I'll be happy to join you at the kitchen sink when you get home. I've got cosmo making plus tirimisu left over from dh's Father's Day dinner.


Hugs,

Happy Birthday Lottie,


So you don't like to be sung to either, I join you on that. Hope your dh does well with the ultra sounds. Keep the faith and have a good day, we are in a drought also.

Betty L. Keep and Angel on your Shoulder & a prayer in your heart.

Big hugs to both of you, Lottie. It is really good to hear from you - but sorry about the stroke and fall. Good luck today on the tests - hopefully they can find the cause and fix it! Also - happy belated Birthday - I'm with you on the singing waitress drill! I guess you haven't noticed that I've been a regular at the sink - love coming and can imbibe with no worries about driving and/or calories! Take care of yourself - and please post when you can.
