Bright shiny day

The last few days have been so wonderful for me! I have so many kind and generous friends who made sure I felt special on my birthday. There were dinners out, cards and packages, texts and phone calls, and so much more.  





My birthday gift from Gregg was a bright yellow cruiser style bicycle! It's the perfect bike for riding around the flat, smooth roads in my neighborhood. I love it!


And finally......

  2. So lovely, Jennifer! A belated happy, happy, HAPPY birthday to you!!!
    Like you, I experienced so much kindness and love from my friends and family, and at work from people at my customer's who came up to my table in the canteen to congratulate me, and one of them gave me chocolates when I came to her office for a meeting :-)
    Your bike is what my "dream bike" (if I had one) looks like! Primrose yellow - how much more spring-like can you get?!

    2. Ok.... brain injury is rearing it's ugly head
      I have lost your address. As soon as you mentioned your birthday I made a card, I wanted to send it right away but....
      I hope you got the rain soaked card that was found in my yard and I had to resend.

      I also can not find your email so if you want to send it again here is mine

    3. I did get one card from you a while back! And I will email you again.

    1. Thank you Chris! I was just thinking about you. Remember you said that you didn't want to mention a job you applied for that you really wanted, because it might ruin the mojo? That is happening to me. So mum's the word! Hahaha!

  17. Jennifer - I don't know what the hell is going on. Still no e-mail from you. I checked my Junk Mail, Spam, Deleted Items etc.. Nothing there. Perhaps you are on Trump's watch list and not allowed to make contact with suspicious foreigners like me.
