Happy Birthday to Me

Wow! What a day it has been. To help me celebrate my B.day, my family and good friend Alice, met me at church. After the service we all went to Tray's for a delicious lunch of barbecue, salad, ranch potatoes, chips and cheese n crackers. Kelly baked a butter pecan cake for the 62 candles (just kidding) to go on. My friend Alice gave me one of her Hummals that she has collected over the years, its an angel holding a candle (I collect angels), she also gave me a bottle of Riesling wine, which we wasted no time getting into. Tray & Matt had a picture made of Gabs n Holly and they also gave me a bottle of wine, guess you figured out by now that I love my wine. Kelly,Hugh, Carley n Casey gave me a wallet and a tote umbrella to carry in my purse. This has been a wonderful Birthday weekend for me. Now that I am 62, I will start receiving my social security in Nov. I decided to take the money and run! This will come in handy to off set the high price of everything out there including my health insurance, that seems to go up at least 15% every year. (Don't get me started). Anyway, I am very grateful for the many blessings in my life and I thank God everyday. Jer has been a good sport and even went to church with us today, usually I only get him to go on Christmas and Easter, he's a good guy! Thanks again to Jer, Tray, Matt, Gabs, Holly, Kelly, Hugh, Carely, Casey and Alice for making my Birthday so special, I love you all!
