cruiser

today ralph surprised me a special bday line-up for the day.  best of all, my gift from him was a 7-speed cruiser with front brakes, and the awesome events that were planned!  i love it and i can't wait to get a basket in front for dog.  make that an extra-strength industrial basket so she doesn't fall out since she's a tad heavy!  what a great day it's been and dinner at seven was it's usual great self!  thanks, ralph!!!

still sick, must find more cold relief!

happy birthday connie!

happy birthday ralph!

i hope you have an awesome birthday that has a long-lasting celebratory weekend, you old man who is now 3 years older than me!  just kick it and enjoy your day!  i love you and i hope all your wishes come true.

my blooming bday list

happy birthday baby d!

today is dog's 5th bday (is that 35 in dog years?  she's now older than me!).  and no, her name is not "baby d" but it is one of her 200 nicknames.  i can't believe she's 5- how fast they grow.  i guess time flies when you have the sweetest dog ever created!  we'll celebrate with a cake (for dogs) and maybe she'll get to share a cheeseburger with dolce, and a fun run at the park!
