Monday - February 20

Happy Birthday to me AND my brother Bob and a bunch of other family/friends who celebrate this February 20th!!!

And a Happy "Heavenly" Birthday to FSIL (favorite son-in-law), Patrick who would've been 58 yesterday!

I had a wonderful day - lunch at Cristof's with 3 dear friends (Claire, Beth and Charlotte).   Sitting on the patio in 85 sunny degrees with a glass of wine, excellent crab cakes and then a chocolate bomb with spumoni inside made it all extra special!

On home and enjoyed the Mardi Gras parade here in our park.   We sat across the street in the shade with our neighbors, JoAnn and Buddy, Brenda and Gary.     Nicely decorated golf cats - very festive!

Went to dinner tonight at Firestone Grill downtown with Jim and Lydia and met Doris (another sibling) and Rich who arrived this afternoon for a week's vacation.    Our dinners were very good and really excited to have them back open after a 4-month closure cause of Ian.    We sat and gabbed and made my birthday extra special with family to celebrate with!

A great birthday and so appreciate the phone calls, texts, e-mails, cards and e-cards.      Loved visiting with our kids, grandkids and facetime with Luke, Maeve and Blair!
You are all so very special in my life!!!
