Thank you everyone, so much, for your kind birthday wishes! Both my children had flown in to spend a couple days at home, so we've been visiting and I haven't been near the computer in several days, weirdly! so please accept my apologies for not responding until now -
Still way behind on posts.
Anyway, all this has reminded me of what I said once before, that the Hobbit Hole has been a bright spot in my life, even though my life has been good so far. It's nice to belong to our little online community, especially as so many of us have also had the opportunity to meet in RL. It's like belonging to a private club, IMO.
We have yet more family now visiting for the weekend of the 4th, so I'll likely be missing again for a few days.
HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY, Everyone!
Happy fourth to you too Sam! I figured you must have been out traveling, that you wouldn't go without visiting otherwise!
D'oh! Forgot you in the ping!

Happy Fourth of July to you, too. Sam! I'm so glad your kids were able to celebrate your birthday with you!
