number 78 ... and what else

 Today is number 78 ... birthday that is.  Bob is taking me out to lunch... at a very nice restaurant!! Hooray! Afterwards we will go and vote and then off to Target to pick up his order.

But I have to share my birthday... some good shares like sharing with a relative ... some bad ones like it being the day Martin Luther King was assassinated ... and one we will have see like Trump's arraignment and his protestors.

My daughter called to wish me a happy birthday on her way to breakfast ,thanks the trial judge! She voted on her way. (Yes, today is also election day! Not much on the ballot... city council but ours is running unopposed....  and whether the county or our city should charge sales tax  for recreational/non-medical marijuana ).

She dropped in on her way home after the trial was done. We listened to her rant about the other jurors... and the lawyers. It is too long a story to retell here though I really do see her side.

She also popped a birthday treat in the freezer for tonight!!

My grandson took the ACT's today... along with all the other juniors.... 7.30 am to 4.30 pm with no breaks. His father decided he should skip jazz band rehearsal afterwards. That would have been another 2 plus hours with no food etc. He hasn't missed another one...so I agree!

The lack of breaks and food wasn't intentional... a test proctor goofed. 

Our grand daughter had a college biology test today... she was a little nervous but was delighted to report afterwards that she had set the curve!!

So my birthday has been an interesting one.....
