Fifty-four today!

I love my birthday! I'm so very grateful to have lived another year on this planet. And to be in love, have a wonderful family, enjoy good health, have an awesome place to live, and not have to get up and go to work today... well, I'm one lucky girl.

A few months ago my Quirky Lesbian Aunt Joyce sent me this picture of me with my parents when I was a baby. Isn't it freaky to think we all started out like little babies like this???


We lived in Texas, where I was born.  (My father was in the army.)  My mother must have sent this picture to my grandmother in Albany.  Look what she wrote on the back of it.


Oh, thank you so much, Mom!   (But in real life, thanks for everything.)

Happy birthday, Chubby Legs. Heh. Chubby legs is considered cute and cuddly on a baby. Why not on a woman, I ask you? Damn double standards.

Lol! How did they get away with saying things like that? My mother used to tape my sticky-out ear in the hope it would straighten. And told me about it!! Nowadays that'd be grounds for lots and lots of therapy!
Happy Birthday, Linda, hope it's a great one and a fantastic year ahead for you.1957 was a good year, I swear to that.
I'm very glad you're alive too, cos I get a good laugh when I visit.
