Happy Birthday! And didn't something good happen with the Red Sox on your birthday?
Thank you to everyone for the happy birthday wishes.
Yes, GG- the BoSox did win the ALCS on my birthday which was nice, but my football team, Steelers, lost at the end with a late field goal by Denver so a bit of a bittersweet day sports wise.
Well I am really late to the party, but I did tell you HB last night.
