I have been lucky these last few years to have met some very incredible and awesome people. To those that made birthday cards for me as well as sent their birthday wishes, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. It was completely unexpected and you have made this birthday one I will cherish.
All of you have brought joy to me through your friendship, your support, your generosity and your kindness. Your stories have delighted and inspired me.
I especially want to thank my cohort in crime, Beth, for putting this birthday surprise together. I was totally surprised and thrilled! What you did, what you always do for others, is unparalleled. Despite being ill, having your own hands full with real life, you are there for me. There is no better friend. You pick me up when I fall, kick my ass when I'm being a brat, make me laugh as well as cry, and you do all of this without asking for a thing in return. You have my word that I will crank the music up loud and keep it there.
I lift my glass in thanks and recognition to those of you I have had the pleasure of knowing these last few years as well as to those of you with whom I have only recently become acquainted. You have made me feel very special and this is something I will never forget.
I'm glad you enjoyed it Gayl and you should feel special, you certainly deserve to, I know you have been nothing but sweet, kind and generous to me as long as I've known you, you are very special. :)
