Thanks so much for all the birthday wishes, my friends. I truly had a wonderful day.

My friend, Ellen, took me to a casino in Mississippi. First we had lunch at Paula Dean's buffet. Then we played the slot machines for hours. We had a blast! We laughed and carried on because even though I was able to play for a couple of hours, I won absolutely nothing. And the gambler that I am (NOT), I was playing the penny slot machines and truly loved it. When I got home, there were flowers for me sent from Corey. Along with the flowers was a message on my answering machine from him. He got a group of the guys in his dorm together and they all sang Happy Birthday to me. It was hilarious as they were all off key and on different words of the song. Some of them sang Happy Birthday Mom and some sang Happy Birthday Mrs. D. When he didn't get me at home then, he tried again at about 10:00 pm to wish me a Happy Birthday in person. That alone made my wonderful birthday day even more special.:jiggy::jiggy::jiggy:

Sounds lilke a great day. See, you did raise a thoughtful son. I think it's awesome that he had the dorm guys sing to you and that he even called back to talk to you in person.
