I did, in fact, have a great birthday. I worked in the garden, did laundry (not by hand!), and got rid of more things in the house as usual, but I was happy doing it. Chocolate cake and vanilla ice cream continue to be tasty treats. I tried my guitar and can play it some before my wrist hurts too much. That's progress.
Thank you to everyone for the good wishes, kind PM messages, and emails. Life is good.
