When you yell "Bring It ON" in Forty's face, remind it to leave the tequila at home.

My 40th Birthday

Part One.

~~

My friend Susan brought the jokes:



and the love:


and a cake:


~~

My other friend Sue hand made
this adorable top
for me

With the sweetest lacy edging~  


I totally should have put it on right then, but no. 
We were too mesmerized by the edge of the plastic tablecloth
that was begging to be stripped and fasioned into tube tops.  

Of Course.


What could have been and what actually was:


I especially love the part where Helen
gets a whole flower for a face
while my head is replaced with
floating leaves that just drift up up and away. 
I'm going to say I planned it that way,
and you're going to know I'm lying.
