birthdays

Mum would have been 89 today.  Wow.  Already 6 years since she passed.  She rather hated her birthday - a cold, dark time of year, and she didn't care for the passage of time and what it meant physically.  Still, happy birthday, Mum!

And I was remiss in not marking what would have been Dad's 86th birthday late last month.  Both of them Aquarius, yes.  He didn't even make it to 70, unfortunately.  A lot of time gone since we lost him.  I don't think he cared all that much about birthdays, but the man had a healthy appetite, so if there was a good spread, he would have been happy.  Happy birthday, Dad!
