Happy birthday

Linda is 36 today (she said I could tell). Her twin sister has a birthday today too, coincidently. They are going out for lunch later (without Ellie) and then a movie.

Linda is a bit tired this morning and boy-oh-boy grumpy. She says she didn't sleep well last night. Part of the problem seems to be with our heavy blankets on the bed, she can't get turned over. She asked me a couple of days ago if we could get an electric blanket instead. This is a real concession for her, since she has never liked electric blankets.

I was sick yesterday, or we might have gotten it then. It seems to be tradition (in our house at least) for someone to be sick around Christmas. I'm feeling better today.
