Happy birthday Roberta

Happy Birthday, 'Berta!

Thanks to the astutely observant shewolf for the beautiful flowers.

Thanks for the good wishes, Edgar.

Love dat baby hippo, soz. Thanks mucho.

Thanks to the also astutely observant Mame. Decisions, decisions. Torn between a very hot guy (I'm not over the hill yet) or a mystery gift box. Tough noogies. I'm taking them both.

bethie, Thanks for the good wishes and all dem chickens.

Two pounds of chocolate, osso. They could last me for--hours. Delish. Divine.

Hey gus, thanks for the word challenge. I'm getting too old for speed solving. But I'll work on it and get back to you. (So far I've got China and Poland.)

Noddy, I'll take auspicious. And I'm holding onto my dominion as hard as I can.

jes, A cheetah cake! Love it. Thanks mucho.

littlek, The dog has a face I find irresistable. Thanks for da dawg and all dem balloons.

Walter, My favorite hot dog. Nathans. Thanks for the freebie.

caribou, The panda shouldn't fall. Love the photo. Thanks mucho.

Letty, Gibbons! Among my favorites. I have to provide the ribbon? I've got some. Thanks.

Happy Birthday, Roberta.
After all the birthday cake, I thought you might like to relax and take in a movie. (I miss you at the movies.)



Enjoy your day!

I miss you, too, raggedy. Thanks for the movie fare. What's a movie without that stuff?

QUIET, that's what.

Happy Birthday Roberta, My favorite Yankee fan.

RH

Thanks, RH. Sigh, my Yankees. I've been through low times before. Not easy. Miss seeing the stadium every day. Miss hearing the crowds roaring while my parents and I were having dinner. Don't miss hearing the stadium loudspeaker in my best friend's room. Jeez, that was annoying. Do miss winning them serieses. Will miss Mr. Torre. Will always miss Mantle, Maris, Berra, Ford--the guys I saw when I went to the games.



OK, I'll stop now. Aren't you sorry you brung it up? Hey, I'm a goil from da Bronx. Whadja expect?




Went out to dinner tonight with a dear friend. Went to a local barbecue jernt. Tasty. Fun conversation. Made my official annual birthday wish. Hope it's official; there were some "ands" in there. Don't know if that's allowed. Tough noogies. I had "ands." I threw em in.

Roberta--

You're entitled to all the conjunctions you want.

Normally, I'd agree. But I'm not sure that this applies to official wishes.

Happy (belated) birthday to my dear friend, Roberta!
.... one of the kindest, wisest, smartest, funniest, most sympathetic & loveable people currently existing on this planet!

The very best friend any human or critter could possibly have!


.... From her vague, forgetful & thoroughly mortified (to have somehow missed celebrating Roberta's big day )
friend in Melbourne, Australia.


Hope it was an excellent day for you, Roberta. And that this new year is a huge improvement on the last!

Love,
Olga

msolga, Are you sure you've got the right Roberta? Wise? Moi? You got the other adjectives right.

Unmortify yourself. Stuff happens.

I wouldn't call the day excellent. I'd call it very good. Which considering the days I've been having lately becomes excellent in contrast.

Dinner with a friend. I promised myself I wouldn't kvetch, whine, or complain about anything. (No mean feat for me.) Made it through an entire dinner without being negative. Was that me? More or less.

Thanks for the good wishes and the apology.

Yeah, I got the right Roberta!

Absolutely!

Bugger! I'm late off the mark again!

Wishing you a very happy belated birthday Roberta.

Glad you're so sure, msolga.

Dorothy, I love my birthday. I'm happy to receive good wishes late, early, and on time. Thanks for the good wishes.

Roberta--

Modesty becomes you. Quibbling does not.

Am I quibbling? Who knew? Thought I was honestly assessing and responding to comments.

BTW, I'm not all that modest. Haven't I said on numerous occasions that I'm a fantastic worryer and an even better kvetcher? Maybe the best when it comes to the latter. Not modest at all.

Happy (belated) birthday!

Your carriage awaits!

Hey margo, Thanks for the good wishes. Where am I going?
