Is it Laura Day??? Yay, Laura Day!

May you enjoy a fabulous, sunny, beachy day with some delicious food and wonderful company. And cake. Happy Birthday!

Our wings are not tired.

Thank you! I am super excited about being 70. Seriously! I'm about to go across the street with SIL and DH and have a mimosa on the beach.

That's exactly the kind of thing I was hoping for!

One thing I read about dealing with parents with dementia - it's not like children who you're trying to teach good behavior or ethical treatment or something like that. Sometimes it's just best to lie to them. It's not like they're going to learn.

I must say, it goes against the grain but there it is.

Happy birthday, Laura! Two mimosas on the beach and a nap sound amazing.
