January 28th is my dearest friend Julia's birthday. I've known Julia most of my adult life. We met in English 101 which was our very first class in college and have been friends ever since. We have shared our dreams, our fears, laughs, tears, a house and our love of travel. She is still the only person I can understand with toothbrush talk. We created the rules for laughter...rule #1 don't make the other person laugh while drinking, rule #2 not while eating, and rule #3 not while smoking. Julia, THANKS for always making me laugh no matter what rules we break! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! And I'll see you and Luigi very soon!!!
My Mom's birthday was March 2nd. I won't tell you how old she is because she wouldn't like that but she would be the first to tell you that she now has her medicare card. WOW...my parents are getting old...heehee! Not to worry...I won't get in trouble unless I spelled it out...65...I mean SIXTY-FIVE! And she looks GREAT!!!!!!! Ohhhh, I'm in so much trouble!
