Happy Birthday Charles....hope you have a good birthday. 35 years old.....good age.....good times back then :)

My birthday wish for you is that the next 5, 10, 15 + years pass by in typical harried, busy and 'oh where did the time go?' fashion and that you enjoy many many many more years to come, surrounded by your family and friends. Enjoy turning 35. It truly was a wonderful time..ah, the memories. Time flies....enjoy every moment TODAY!

Well, we will have to have a 'cyber' birthday party for you, right?
There's no reason NOT to celebrate your birthday.....it's a wonderful day and I am wishing you an early Happy Birthday and wish for you many many more to come.

Doc -- How about a pair of Canadian hockey socks? Any preference for colour?

I don't do hockey because I am not really Canadian. But thanks for the thought. Anti-neuropathy socks would be good!

My 10th Anniversary was May 5th and my birthday was on May 11th...also known this year as Mothers Day. Didn't do too much because I was recovering from a lung wedge resection and getting ready to receive folfox for this wretched gift that keeps on giving.

I'm really not as bitter as that sounds (probably thanks to the other lovely drugs that have been prescribed for me). I was very happy to have all my children around to celebrate with me and lucky to have my mom and dad around as well.

Happy Birthday all you other May babies!!! I wish you many many years of happiness and blessings!

Now that it is over (well almost over) I can reveal that today was my birthday. I celebrated Friday night in a feast of drunken debauchery that would have hurt even when I was young and didn't have cancer. What can I say? traditions need to be observed ha.

VOXX!!

WHY didn't you let us know earlier??? Hmmm?? Well, you're not going to get away that easily...you do know that, right?? Here's wishing you a very happy and slightly belated birthday (which wouldn't have been belated, Voxx, if you had just let us know).

Anyway, happy birthday and hope that you had a wonderful day and wishing you many many more to come.
