Woo! Happy birthday!!!! Maybe you're the new coming of Sacagawea? I didn't think so, but it's sort of neat to think about.

I saw you mention in another comment trail that your daughter's arrived. Have a great time with her and a Merry Christmas!!!

Wow I never knew it was St. Dominic the patron saint of corn cribs, wheat bins and other silos. Learn something new every day! Happy Birthday and many more!

Thanks for visiting My Thursday Thirteen #61 13 Christmas Songs I Love/Hate Edition.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DARLA!

Love how nonchalantly you slipped that in among the other important events on this day! '-)

I didn't know Sagan was dead. :( I love Alan Parsons and Steinbeck and I wish I'd known about St Dominic so I could celebrate....the 20th was the anniversary of my first marriage (and it would have been my 30th anniversary if I were still married to the same guy).
