So---- just because you are 80 years young , doesn't mean that you are "older than old"--Lord love a Duck! --- I mean, I was feeling a tad sorry for myself before yesterday came---- then, we all decided that a virtual party was in the works-- and everybody came--It really was fun planning this party-- Some of you brought calorie-less cakes--some brought foods chucked full of calories--Daisy the dog came and Lopez and Beau loved her--Wasn't it just the best party ever?---- It shows that because a person might be up in years----we sure can dream--Thank yu one and all!
And my family sure came thru--flower arrangements, veggie platters-- phone calls-- AND--- 2 of the Grandchildren were dancing last evening in town. I REALLY wanted to go, but I tried not to give it too much thought as I did not want to leave Himself alone-- BUT___ Son #4 called and said he would come out and sit with his Dad so I could go and see the dancers--- the family came thru- for a young 80 year old Lady-- Holy cow! -
And now, this jolly old soul, who might be 1000's and 1000's of years old--- is going to arrive soon--and we must figure out how to get the chimney ready for him-- Will he fit?--- And the roof must hold all his reindeer-- And there will be a lot of "HO H0-HO-ing going on--- I hear that he has to deliver a lot of "2 front teeth"--- for some seniors as all they want for Christmas is their 2 front teeth-Lord love a Duck!
I must get off of here--We have a mixture of snow and rain falling- outside--Himself seems pretty good this morning--
--- Always Dream a little-- Take care of your pets-- They enjoy this festive Season also---
You received so much joy and love!! So very happy! Have a beautiful Saturday. ((HUGS))

It was a great party for a great lady. Lots of fun, And then your son came over so you could go see your grands dance. Plus the kids sent/brought lots of food for your party. Pretty perfect day..
ReplyDeleteLoved your virtual party and my virtual first class flight. You are such a special person and I'm so glad you were showered with love on your 80th BD.
ReplyDeleteHappy to hear son came out to sit with himself while you got out to watch grands perform.
Wouldn't it be wonderful if we all could meet one day....that would be amazing.
Hope you and himself have a good day.
Hugs
it would be so much fun if we really could meet--Good as always--to hear from yu-Lynda
DeleteI had a great time at the party, and can report that Son#2 is a fine pilot, navigating to get all of us home safely! You are so loved by all your readers, and 80 is looking younger every day from down here at 70.
ReplyDeleteGlad your family did their bit and you got to see your dancing grandchildren! Onward to the next year of adventures!
Happy Belated Birthday! So glad that your family made your birthday special! Reading your blog made me tear up! It was supposed to be my grandson's 16th birthday party - but his mom woke up with covid and so the party had to be called off. Made me sad for him, so I drove to meet my son and met him in the town where they live and gave him my grandson's gifts! Finished up some Christmas shopping while I was out so it made it a worthwhile trip! PS - you look great for 80!
