I wanted to wish my sister, Therese, a happy belated birthday, as well as my brother, Carl!!  They had their birthdays on Sunday and Tuesday. 
HAPPY BIRTHDAY
, you two!!  Therese and Carl were born 363 days apart and are the same age for two days.  Oh, and someone else special has a birthday tomorrow!  Guess who?  The writer of this blog!  Now, it's interesting that my momma had three children born during the same calendar week.  Within five days in fact.  I wonder what the odds for that are?  I know I didn't like it growing up, as I got a little older, because we had a "group birthday" at the beginning of "the birthdays" and I felt a little slighted.  I had my birthday last and everyone was done celebrating.  I sort of felt like no one wanted to celebrate my birthday by the time it rolled around.  Sounds a little selfish.  Now I think it is really neat!  Happy Birthday to the three of us!!

For your Halloween and Thanksgiving delight, here is some
virtual carving fun
!  I spent quite a bit of time on this site.  I thought you all might like to try and see what you can create.  If you have a creation you are proud of (or not... LOL) take a screen shot of it and put it in your journals and send me the entry URL!  I would love to see it!  If you don't know how to take a screen shot (Ctrl + print screen, then paste in email) send me an email and I will explain it to you.  Have a lovely evening all!  I'm off to eat lunch.  Take care! xox

  1. Happy B-Day!  My kids are the same age for 2 weeks.  Oct 24 and Oct 13.  I call them twins.  They hate it.  I wrote about it in an entry last week.  Thanks for the pumpkin.  I'll see what I can do.  :)

  20. Thanks for the birthday greetings!  Therese and I were born 364 days apart, not 363 as you wrote.  1960 was a leap year, and February had 29 days, therefore, our birthdays were 364 days apart.

    Hope to see you again soon, Carl
