All I can say is WOW!!! Thanks so much Finest Friends for the sweet birthday greetings!!!
This birthday was a little emotional for me...a little over a year after mom died suddenly. Slept in then had a "grueling" but very satisfying flight lesson (pulling power and gliding to simulate an emergency field landing finding a good field etc. (yikes), more 45 degree bank turns while holding elevation (required to pass your check ride) then 4 landings with a serious cross wind) Two were great...two were REALLY UGLY :o)
Anyway came hope to a sweet present from dad, Mr. D. and the kids and was getting ready for them to take me out to dinner. Decided to quickly stop in and WHAT A delightful surprise. LOVE my sistahs and all my finest friends.
Dad is thrilled to be taking us out to dinner so need to leave. Will try to check back later.
(((((FINEST FRIENDS))))))

I love to read about your flying lessons. My son is a pilot and is training for his instructor's certification flying helicopters. He is always telling us about the auto-rotations and other scary-sounding maneuvers that I had just as soon not hear about! LOL!
It sounds like you are really enjoying it and are doing good at it.

I notice you say it "Buy Nothing Day" in the UK. Obviously people had not got this message in our Designer outlet or ASDA (Walmart) today both were packed and people were buying like crazy.
It was wall to wall Christmas decoration, reindeer, snowmen, Father Christmas and of course piped music. I heard White Christmas and Winter Wonderland amongst others. I am glad to see in the UK Walmart are saying Merry Christmas and not Seasons Greeting or Happy Holidays.

Dolly just called. She asked that I ask for your prayers.
She took Oliver and Toby for a walk in the woods and as usual they spotted something and took off. Toby came back after 45 minutes but Dolly has been looking for Oliver for 3 and 1/2 hours.
Please join me in praying that Oliver finds his way home very soon.

Yes, prayers that Oliver is found and is not harmed in any way. It is so difficult when a pet runs away.
And now, on a sadder note, Fierce Allegiance lost his Dad today. I saw his tagline on the Canteen. I have posted a prayer to him...the Finest might want to, also.

"Good evening, your Highness - -
When LadyX got word to me on the battlefield
it is your birthday,
I simply had to stop to wish you all the best!"
"Our communications connection was a tad muddled.
Thought she said something about you
'taking a flying leap,' today, was it?!"
["Always thought you Americans were strange - -
oh well..."]

It's Your Birthday
Today is your special day,
so celebrate in your favorite way.
As time goes bye,
The years begin to fly.
But, you're only as old as you feel,
even when gray hair begins to yield.
Life is full of ups and downs
But, always wear a smile,
instead of a frown.
Many wishes for days to come
and may your birthday be
a very extra special one.
Happy Birthday!

"Dolly has been looking for Oliver for 3 and 1/2 hours." Oh, no!
Lord, please send Oliver home where he belongs....
Weinie, can you assist with a dog angel patrol
to nudge him in the right direction?

Thank you, Father!
Dolly just called ..... after 6 hours, Oliver has been found and he seems none the worse for wear. He was pretty thirsty but seems fine.
Dolly will try to get on later tonight with a more in depth report.
Thank you all for your prayers.
