Celebration

Since beloved spouse wasn't going to be home on his birthday, we met up with friends to fete him a bit early. We just aren't counting the actual number of years either of us has racked up. Funny, the eldest among us frequently rounds up her age; I suppose that's because it's a pretty impressive sum. She's still a kick: The other day one of her elderly acquaintances was gone on Sunday afternoon. I joked that maybe the casinos had an after-church special. My mom quipped,"Come on in! We'll take whatever you didn't put in the collection plate!" Snap!
