The me I have always seen myself as. Small boobs except when I was in my role as pacifier. Maybe I will lose another ten.

Glad your revision went well, Chris.

Taco, I sent a PM.
Chris, Tippy is adorable.
I went on a wander to Clearwater with my niece to extend my birthday for a week. We went to a Foreigner and 38 Special concert. Since they have been around for 50 years, Boomers and X's can both enjoy them. The audience was a field of gray. (LOL)

Thanks for the chuckle about being a pacifier, Chris. I can remember those days as well. Glad you see yourself as envisioned. Are you still sewing?
petite1, my BFF's mother once she reached 80 celebrated her birthday for the entire month of July. She figured it made up for years when it wasn't such a celebration. She lived well into her late 90's and her DD threw her a party every July where we were able to throw snowballs they had frozen during the winter. We lobbed them at a tree, not each other, though. So make the month your celebration and enjoy it. I like Foreigner so I would have enjoyed that concert.
I'm doing laundry today because I have too much on my plate tomorrow with eye doctor and PT and on Thursday I have PAT and PT so busy days. Today was the only day where I can attack this and some cleaning on the first floor. So I will vacuum and dust down here in between loads.
Did major clothing drop at Green Drop today and still have a few boxes in garage that need to go as well. Tried my best to find a place that would help women transitioning to the workforce but one only accepts donations from manufacturers and the other which was a domestic abuse never returned my call.
Today is sunny but only 50 degrees so cooler. My daffodils by the back door are in bloom and they make me smile. They always come back. The big bed down by the road is popping out of the ground and will make for later blooms. The hyacinths are also just erupting. Just love this time of year.
Hope everyone has a great day.

I'm here late today. Had a sort of busy morning. I was able to do quotes but not get back till now for anything else. Today was Lil' Red's beauty shop appointment. Good for us to be able to run errands for a bit un-encumbered. I don't know how long he 'whines' after we get him put into his assigned crate, but it is so loud in the 'shop' that it doesn't bother anyone I don't think.
After dropping him off we did errands. Two bank visits, two store visits, and one gas station. I did a panic number on myself — sigh !!! I thought I might be bouncing a check so I took a carton from my room with all my loose change — when my wallet coin purse gets too full I drop it all in the carton. Well, I turned it in and it came to $46.00 — plenty enough to keep a check from bouncing. Then afterwards I found out that the last deposit I made I forgot to write in — I could have left all that change in the carton. Oh well, as I have to say so often now.
Petite, Betrayal is right. Longer birthday celebrations are a good thing. I would have liked the Foreigner concert too. Glad you and your niece could 'rock' together.
I envy anyone (thinking Betrayal right now) who can move whatever donations they have out and away. I'm filling boxes but have had to hold onto some. SIL knew a woman who really needed some clothes and I had some ready to go. Unfortunately, there was some sort of flare and SIL is no longer interested nor feels he needs to give this helping hand. I don't know the lady — so it is what it is. The box will go to Goodwill along with some others. I also have some nice pans and a few other odds and ends in good shape.
I would have a yard sale but our house is a bit hard to find and it really is a 'lane' as in one lane road to my house and the next house is a dead end. Not great to have much for traffic here with how we are set our here around the lake. Also, I like the fact that we are tucked in an out of the way place. Almost no one ever comes down our road by accident.
Weather is beautiful today but tomorrow sounds icky. Cool again with rain. It is 75 right now and will warm a bit more at that. I'm not looking forward to rain. We are just getting dry from the last rain.
I hope you all have a wonderful afternoon.

No sewing, betrayal. My thumbs have gotten terribly painful with arthritis lately. But my plastic surgeon gave me a cortisone shot immediately after I went unconscious. So that was a double win.

well last night I celebrated St Patrick’s day in style. I was tarbender and boy were we busy. Had a new gal on with me. The band plays Celtic, Irish Scottish tunes. Very good band and we ran out of Guinness twice. I sent the newbie to the liquor store! Great fun I even bought a T-shirt.
