Happy Birthday, Annette!

Happy Birthday to you!
Happy Birthday to you!
Happy Birthday, dear Sissymeat!
Happy Birthday to you!

And just in case you want to print this lovely thing, I'll send it to you in email in a larger size. :P~

Michael and I are doing well. He has gotten a bit weaker, and his gait is not very steady. He sustained two falls day before yesterday (just a skinned knee when he fell in the driveway) and so I took action. I dug out the walker that we had bought for him after he got out of the hospital, and he's been using that around the house. It helps him to be steadier and more confident. It also helps MY confidence.

I also got him a wheelchair so that he can use that when we're out and about. I made a ramp for the back of our car so that I can easily get the quite heavy chair in and out. It works great and this will enable us to see and do more. :)

We went to the County Fair a few times already. Where better to get fried foods? LOL! We've enjoyed tenderloins twice, fried catfish, ribbon fries, onion rings, lemon shakeups, ice cream, popcorn, snow cones, elephant ears, and funnel cakes. The weather has been great -- almost cool, but not really -- in the low 80's. It's supposed to be warming up over the next few days, though.

I finally got my printer hooked up and working on my new computer. YAY!

  1. Thanks so much for the birthday card and wishes! What a lovely card, too.

    Michael is very lucky to have you there to help and take care of things.

    We love you both. Talk to you soon.

  2. Well, you gotta love someone who refers to her sister as "Sissymeat." LOL. (Makes me sorta glad I was an only child. Haaaa.)

    You and Michael remain in my prayers daily. My best to both of you. You remain my heroes.
