Happy Birthday John! Sure wish you could have celebrated with us tonight. You would have loved the lady that danced on the table in your honor. We didn't want her to be disappointed, so we told her that Dan was you...think of all the fun he had! :evilgrin:

Hope you're feeling better soon...there's always next week, and the next, and the next...etc., for CSSP.

Thank you all for your kind wishes.

Wish I could have turned fifty without so much sudden drama happening all at once, but it appears I'm starting the turn towards getting rid of this bug--I'm actually able to eat something!

I wont give you all the details, but it isn't pretty. I feel like an extra for the opening first hours of Stephen King's The Stand. Once I lose this near-constant cough and running nose, I will SO be working on rebuilding my stamina for the Rescue course I prepaid for in May.

So sorry to hear you were ill over your birthday festivities! So I think this calls for a DO-OVER! We of course, will all want picture proof o fthe do-over!!! :diver:

Happy belated birthday!
