Where did the Month go?

I have been so busy this month that I haven't posted for two weeks. I am just playing for the most part and really enjoying my time in Florida. The two classes, Water Exercise and Scrapbooking, are doing well. I have been playing bridge three times a week and seeing some movies as well.
I had a lot of nice things happen for my Birthday. First I got a lovely picture from
Anja in France. Then I got flowers from Anne and Melonie. It was a beautiful boquet that has lasted for 7 days now. Then Mac got me a gift certificate for a pedicure that I had today. Many people sent me cards. All of my kids and grandkids made phone calls. There was a group birthday party for all of the Feb. birthdays on the 14th at the bridge club and then a potluck with music on my actual birthday itself. Beth called me Sat. night and we talked and laughed for a long time. Sunday and Monday I came in first at bridge, to top off the birthday events.
Today I got a permanent and tomorrow I start packing. We are leaving Thurs. for Michigan. We will be up in the cold and snow for about 10 days and then back again to Paradise. We will be going to at least 3 hockey games when we are up there.

Endorsement For President

Before the movie (Atonement) this afternoon, I found out that Paris Hilton had endorsed Hillary Clinton on her blog and I thought that maybe I should too. I really want a female president in my lifetime. I am convinced that she can do the job well. I know that people don't like her very much, but I think it is very hard for a women to be sweet and soft and convince others that she would make a fine Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces. If not now, when? If not her, who? I like Obama but I want him to wait a few years.
There it is-- I made my endorsement.
