today was my birthday
 
It was great! When I woke up my 3 yeaer old grandson gave me a child
made birthday card that contained the outlines of his hands & feet. He
included drawings of both cats (the only living beings he can order
around). Later I had my favorite breakfast (eggs benedict) cooked by
loving hands.

To guild the lily we went out for lunch... I wasn't hungry, but the
food sure went down easily! We're going back there for dinner soon
because they have prix fix lunch and dinner menus that are surprisingly
low priced for the area. I had them drop my off at work on the way
home, I stayed there 3 hours and came home. When I arrived, my
grandson was in the basement saying "happy birthday Grayma" and singing
Happy Birthday. When I got upstairs, it turned out that my daughter
had baked a cake from scratch (thank you FoodTV), filled it with fresh
strawberries and frosted it with whipped cream. YUM!

My present from her was a big bag full of goodies to use in my new
jaccuzi... candles, bath beads, bath salts etc. Yes, it was a good
one!

The only mar is that I seem to be getting sciatica, which is making it
uncomfortable to sit very long.

Happy birthday wishes dear! :-)
Wishing you swift recovery from the Sciatica, (btdt, I know how much it
hurts...) and a rapid return to a decent newsreader.

We've missed you!

I take a lot of ibuprofen for sciatica. Works well!

That jaccuzi is going to feel good to. <G>

Happy Birthday, sf !! And many more. Sounds as though you were
well-celebrated.
As for the sciatica, several chiropractic visits were very helpful
for me, along with a good heating pad. Warmth does help. Do you know
about the fabulous
"Thermophore"
heating pad? It is unique in that it gives moist heat--draws moisture
out of the air.
Ask at a medical supply store, or have your pharmacist order one for
you. It is so strong and heats up so quickly that the switch cannot
be turned on and left on, you have to hold it and let go when it is hot
enough.
Anyway, glad you had a happy birthday.

Wow, TODAY is MY birthday. :~) Glad yours was good. I have no plans at
all except trying to get some work done. Oh, and I'll clean the house and
do the dishes. Whoo hooo!

Happy Birthday! I feel like a complete idiot, but um...I didn't know
(couldn't tell from the username "sf") that you were a woman. Don't I feel
stupid! I didn't consciously think you were a man, but it just surprised me
to see a gender-specific refererence. Anyway, I know now, and I'm glad you
had a great day! The Eggs Benedict and the cake sound wonderful!

Take care of that sciatica-- have never had it (knock wood!) but it doesn't
sound fun.

Well, great, sf! Glad you had a good time. And Happy Birthday, BTW.
I noticed you didn't say which BD it is, and I won't ask <G>.

Happy Belated Birthday from someone who is often "a day late and a
dollar short." (not always, just often).
