Happy Birthday Mo!
Special day today! Sorry you got here earlier than I did; for some reason AG refused to load, and when it did, it was unbelievably slow ...
Just want to say we hope that you have a really Happy Birthday today, and wish you good health and love and fuzzy warm feelings all through the year to come!

Re:
Thank you, all of you.
It was a wonderful day. I would say that it stands out as one of the best birthdays ever. Started out with phone calls from all my loved ones (my phone plays the Bib Bang Theory theme when it rings and the triple "Penny" knock for texts). It was going on all day, with people on the phone asking why Sheldon was knocking on my door, very funny.
I got some nice things from Barry, flowers for one, he's not a flowers person, and he chose the colours I like so that was special. Petal and John brought me a whole packet full of gifts and wine. Then on Facebook, I got, I've lost count, but I think over 70 good wishes, which was wonderful, and kept me busy because I obsess about having to respond to each one.
My eldest was working from home for the day, so he and I had long email chats about what I'm working on, and then he called me on FaceTime to see the kids, and my eldest grandson sang happy birthday to me, then the other family also did a happy birthday song with my granddaughter, which was delightful.
Our dinner was a great success. I'm so pleased Petal and John enjoyed my vegan food. We drank lots of wine, and champagne, and had Irish coffee, and four hours later they went home, and I was over-excited so I couldn't sleep. I ended up cleaning up the kitchen and watching TV into the wee hours, so I'm feeling a little fragile today.
All in all, a truly great birthday. I'll do it again next year.
