[chachacha]

my best friend of 48 years outdid herself tonight to throw me an out of this world surprise party! many of your faces were smiling at me and shouting Surprise while i was dumbfounded and very, very touched. i will be happily reading cards and opening gifts, enjoying my balloons, flowers and cake, and magdalena cookies which i love, for the next few days!! our own katie orchestrated some hilarious skits, among which was a spoof of our Meet and Greets! Hank put together a video with music which touched me deeply. it is wonderful to have such great friends, both old and new! thank you all!!
