Thank you, thank you, for all the kind birthday wishes.


As my darling husband Driftglass says, it's a milestone because we have ten fingers and ten toes.

I'll spend the day knitting and reading (heaven), then out to dinner at "our place."

We're off to a knitting convention in Indianapolis this weekend.   So I have a great week planned.

[Happy Birthday to my mom, who was born today also.  It's always a special time to exchange "same day birthday" wishes.]

Thanks again for all the kind wishes.  I'm so grateful for all my internet and f2f friends.  xoxoxo
