It's my birthday!

Hello everyone:  Wanted to fill you in on my birthday!  I had quite a nice day!  I received a call from my 2 sisters in Pensacola, and then went to my MD appointment where I was in fine health, and even had some medications limited/changed more - apparently I don't need them all at this time.

Betty & Doug were by and brought me this yummy strawberry milkshake as well as a German Chocolate cake, and a present - a new sweater and pants.  Joan & Randy sent me beautiful flowers and Carol & Ken sent me a gorgeous new outfit!  My residence celebrated my birthday by singing to me and putting balloons on my wheelchair for the day.  The day before I had my hair and nails done.  All in all it was a really fun celebration!

As you can see from this picture, the weather is still quite nice.  I was able to celebrate part of my birthday on the porch of my residence.  While the leaves are just beginning to change, there are lots of them around me.  It is so nice and warm in the sun - not too hot; just right for me to enjoy it on my shoulders outside.  I guess turning 98 is a fun birthday!

I am looking forward to seeing lots of relatives around Thanksgiving - the entire Ken & Doug families are coming for a visit then, with Kathleen (Carol's sister) coming also.
