80 today. Says she WILL NOT wear the 80th birthday badge that her niece bought her. Quite right too. We are having a tea party. Bert got his hair cut especially.
Oh yes - there will also be Bacardi Breezers, bluegrass and other distractions at the tea party.
Expect alcohol-influenced postage later. This posting is just a sleep-deprived one.

Sorry, Nelly--I had an unfortunate typo, and so took down the comment. I wanted to wish Pearlie a Happy Birthday, and say that I wouldn't wear the badge, either, no matter how well-meaning the gift! If you can pass for 70, why not?
In the end she did decide to wear it and I'm happy to report that she thoroughly enjoyed her birthday party.
Bless you for doing that for her. One thing I learned from my all-too-short relationship with my mother-in-law; things like that really mean a lot.
a happy birthday to pearlie!
