It's my Birthday

Today is my birthday, never mind which year, just know that I have lived through Presidental assassinations, Civil Rights movement, and a couple wars. My nieces and nephews are old enough to be parents; I could be a grandmother if I had had children earlier, but I am not old.

My friends that I lunch with everyday had a surprise luncheon party for me and I was so shocked; it was just beautiful. We had turkey, ham, rolls, cheese, salads, deviled eggs, cake, candy, and pop. My friend, June, did all the cooking and set up; she is such a sweetheart and so giving. About 15 people attended and we had a lovely time.

My other friend gave me a tote bag full of fabric, in reds and oranges (I love bright colors) to make myself a quilt. The fabric is so beautiful, I just may make an outfit with it. (just joking) Everyone has been so nice and I thank God for the lovely, thoughtful, giving people He has put in my life. I am truly blessed and Thank you God for allowing me to celebrate another birthday.
