Birthdays!

[roxy]

Happy Birthday to dana_aeryn ! Hope it's a very good one!

betrue, I hope your birthday is excellent also. Thank you so much for being a friend to me, you amazing person you.

It's my mom's birthday today too. It's been 23 years since she's been gone. it doesn't seem possible it's been that long. She died two days after my 30th birthday. After all this time, I've lost the sound of her voice. But sometimes, I remember the way she felt hugging her, and the feel of her giggling when I made hamster nosies on her. She taught me everything I know that's worthwhile to know. She also taught me this really cool joke where you fold a napkin and it looks like a rising dick, but sadly, I forgot how you do that...sorry Mom. Oh yeah, and I don't iron undershirts anymore either. Come on, that was nuts! *G*

And to all my friends, I hope this new year is going to be better, or more fun, or quieter, whatever you need it to be. Me, I'm wanting a tad less drama in RL and LJLand, starting with myself--*G*

Also, could this 'candle' fold be the one you were thinking of?

Happy birthday to MamaMissRose who sounds as wonderful and sweet as her daughter.

There's no love like a mother's love and we carry it with us always. It's the best gift. ::hugs you::

*hugs back* thank you!

Ahahahahaaaa! No, the one she showed me was definitely *not* a candle, but I have to tell you, if I walked into a dinner party and saw *that* on my plate, it would be all over for me!! Thanks so much!

She really was. I love telling Mom stories!

Oh, yay! I'm a spring chicken!
Which reminds me, it's time to change the facofevol pic to reflect the state of the advancing gray! I've been graying since my twenties--I guess it's fair to call my hair white now! *g*

It's so true, the love you get from your mother lasts your whole life. *HUGHUGHUG*

I think you must take after mama! She must have been a great mom. Sounds like you've got lots of great memories. Thanks for sharing them.

We'll have to come over and round up the dramallamas. Yehaw! *lassos*

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

To you too, thank you--and I wish she were still alive--she would have loved all this!

I'm all for less drama, and more fun. *nods* Happy New Year, Roxy! (one day late :P)

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

*HUGS* One day late? Not to worry! you know this journal runs on CPTime!

I was about to say that I am sorry that you are missing your mother, but I am actually not sorry. Everyone deserves to be missed, and remembered, and I am sure that that fact is doubly true of anyone who was capable of raising such a quality person.

I hope you have an excellent New Year as well.

You're right! It's a sorry thing if you pass out of this life with no notice at all. Every person influences other people, makes some difference in someones life. My mom meant a lot to so many people, not just us. And thanks, any part of me that's okay she totally gets the credit for...or the blame, depending on your point of view, LOL!!

[dana-aeryn.livejournal.com]

Thank you. Check out my lj to read about the wonderful prezzie I got.*hugs*

Your mom sounds like she was great.My mom died when I was five, so I have very few memories of her, but the ones I do have, I cherish. Happy birhtday wishes for your mom:?)*more hugs*

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much, love--she was one of a kind! *hugs you*

[roxymissrose.livejournal.com]

Ooooooo! you got a *GREAT* present!!!

[dana-aeryn.livejournal.com]

I sure did.

[beet]

Thank *you* hon. I'm so glad to have met you here on LJ!

Was the 2nd really your Mom's BDay? I've only ever met one person who also had their birthday on the 2nd. It sounds like your mom was one hell of a woman (and had a fair hand in shaping you, as well). (((Hugs))

I can't imagine my mom showing me a napkin trick like that! LOL!

I hope your real and fannish lives are the wonderful things you deserve this year. :)
