I have to work today, but there could be worse things to have to do on your birthday. Hopefully there will be a little knitting later, some champagne perhaps, and a nice dinner with my sweetie!
Sent you a message on Facebook, but it bears repeating. Have a wonderful knitting-full day. Dinner with your sweeties and champagne sounds perfect!
Happy Birthday from one “56-er” to another!!
Happy Birthday! 1956 was apparently a very good year …
Happy birthday!
(Oh, and my *other* favorite thing that happened today? It’s my parents’ wedding anniversary today. 48 years. I’m calling it the Contiguous State Anniversary.)
Happy Birthday, Lorette…….Enjoy your day…..and may you have many more. Always enjoy reading your blog and seeing your knitting projects! I admire you; you are an inspiration to me…..
Happy Birthay! I think Karen Allen hosts (has hosted, at any rate) knitting-yoga retreats… probably not on her birthday, but would make a nice birthday present, no?
; )
Have a great birthday – full of good food & drink, good companionship & much knitting!
Buon compleanno!
Have a great evening. 🙂
I remember this from Ravelry–you and I are birthday twins! Hope you had a nice day!
Happy Birthday! You are right – there are lots of worse things than working on one’s birthday. Hope your day is great and your evening sparkling.
Happy birthday!!
Happy Birthday! You’re certainly in excellent company celebrating today.
Happy Birthday Lorette! It has been such a pleasure getting to “know” you over the years.
Happy Birthday to you – and to my niece in Maine – she was born in 1954.
Happy Birthday Lorette!!!!!!!
Happy Birthday! Hope you have had a good day today.
Happy, happy birthday! I hope it’s really fabulous. 🙂

Belated Happy Birthday wishes! Hope you had a wonderful day!!
A belated birthday to you. Also am hoping you feel better soon. We are planning a trip to Scotland to visit our daughter and son-in-law who live in Edinburgh. Hopefully will be able to go next May.
Happy belated birthday! A fine day indeed!
