OK Memaw looks very content or as Pink Floyd says, “comfortably numb.” Seriously…she is a sweet sweet sweetheart!!!!!!!! I have always wanted a weiner dog. I’ve got a crazy weiner dog obsession. So glad you found each other.

She has a look that says, “I saw a star Dude”, must be those pain meds.

Oh boy, someone new carried my calendar dates over to this year’s calendar and I think I need to go back a couple of years and check out these dates. Charlotte has a birthday coming up in July. Tori’s and Madi’s are in June; Char’s in July…..and Russ’ in November.

Well, on Madi’s facebook page, it states that her birthday is on Wednesday, which is today Finnish time –

Weel, the other day one of her daughters, as well as many others, gave her quite a few birthday greetings and well wishes on facebook, AFTER the 21st !! I’m just sooo confused right now = /

Gracious, jonny, you apparently didn’t sing along with me above…..Tori’s birthday was on the 21st….and she was one year older.

You’re welcome, LB ! Knew you were praying for him, didn’t know whether you’d seen this or not.

OK, I’ve just seen four Don Knotts films from the 60’s pretty much back-to-back. Ben stuck in bed a few days. Anyway, in one of them he stated ‘Beauty is as beauty does.’ What !?? I thought it was what we learned from Forest. Anyway, curiosity got the best of me and this is what I found on-line —

“How one acts makes one beautiful or not, not his/her superficial looks. In other words, true beauty is not found in superficial appearance (his/her face and/or body is beautiful), but how one behaves and carries oneself defines the beauty in a person (he/she is a beautiful person). Beauty is as beauty does!

This common southern (U.S.) expression was morphed into “stupid is as stupid does” in the movie Forrest Gump, and as a result “stupid is as stupid does”is now more widely known than the original “beauty is as beauty does”.”

Now wondering how many of the Southerners here at ‘Bloomr have actually, or actually use this phrase. I don’t believe it’s come up here in any of the discussion threads = /

Also, Tori, when is your birthday ? Actually. You don’t have to give the year, of course = )

Amazing and humbling YouTube video, jonny. Thanks.

Well, I tried to call and sing Happy Birthday to you in finnish, but I guess trying to call you on your birthday is about as effective as trying to get into Heaven through the back door = /

So adorable! Wish I could have gotten a pic of mine this a.m. But she won’t lay still long enough for pic. it’s in the 90’s here again today, I don’t have air in my house, so when she is not downstairs where it is cool, in the bedroom I have box fan in the window and small fan on high pointing towards the bed, and is actually pretty cool in there. She was in the middle of the bed, on her back, all 4’s up in the air just enjoying herself. Had to laugh! But as soon as I moved she did too!!!

Now that is the picture of contentment. No doubt she is resting up so she will be ready to party with her family tomorrow….in cellebration of momie’s birthday!

Since I have an appointment n the morning, I am going to sing Happy Birthday to you right now.

Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday, sweet Tori
Happy Birthday to you

Wishing you God’s sweetest blessings throughout the coming year.

Love you big,
Momma Lloyd
