The photo says it all................

Yes it is that time of the year again.  I have decided that my age is "ageless" in case anyone asks.  I am going to lunch with my son's family and because it is Sunday, the regular routine of taking supper to my Dad is on the schedule.  He doesn't deal well with a break in his routine.  He gets confused easily.

I finished the last batch of blocks for the Winding Ways quilt.  I didn't put them up on the design wall yet.  The one on the bottom right is the lowest contrast in values of all of the blocks.  I wanted some with high constrast and some with low contrast.  That way there will be a lot of movement to the design in addition to the circles.

can you hear me singing, dear Wanda? That's the sound - off key and slightly terrible, but totally exuberant and aimed at the Exuberant B-day Woman! Many happy returns of your day!

I like the comment made by an author (Madeleine L'Engle) in one of her books on writing. ""I am still every age that I have been."
So some days I am a teenager, some days I an an "adult" - but mostly I am ageless too. I frequently shock people when I tell them my age. The number one response: "I thought you were my age" I am, I have been that age! (I never get that from "older" people.)

Have a Happy Day filled with joy.

Happy Birthday. It is only a number they keep telling me. Glad you are going to be with family. Chris

Sue said...

Happy birthday Wanda, you make me think of my Mum, she always said she was as old as her tongue and a little older than her teeth. The older she got the more people asked. Why is that? Do people think you'd be happier to tell them when the number is higher.
