THANKS EVERYBODY!

me and mom had a really nice lunch/picnic just a bit ago, which was fun, and a little emotional, and...as always...a little humorous. i don't know what it is; but no matter WHERE we sit; no matter how remote or out of the way; the people come...Field of Dreams style. the little smelly family decides to sit within five feet of us, or Mr. Universe decides to do crunches right in front of us, or the marching band decides to practice on our blanket... today we had three women approach us to spread the good news of Salvation, as explained in the Billy Graham pamphlet they gave me (gee thanks) and then we had some dude decide to play basketball RIGHT IN FRONT OF US!!!!!!! nevermind that the court was large and that there were four other hoops he could've played at. yes, please play right by us so that your ball rolls into us half a dozen times! anyway, despite that, we had a nice relaxing time and i got some great stuff from everyone, so thank you so much to all of you. i LOVE YOU LONG TIME!

Happy Birthday Lolly! Isn't it great that "30 is the new 20?" That's what everyone keeps telling me as I approach the big 3-0. I hope you had a great day!
