It is my birthday today - no chance of doing anything nice what between Covid and OH's health but when I looked at the weather I don;t think this has happened before:
I am sorry you can't celebrate it properly this year. We are having a warm day in London today, another scorcher weekend ahead of us (37 degrees apparently); August is usually rubbish in London.
Happy Birthday! Perhaps the weather will keep your PMR symptoms on ice! Ice is good with gin, gin is good for the morale, morale is vital for the fight, fight is essential to keep going, going is not an option so sup it with a slice! (Or you could go for champagne..) 🎂🥁🎉🥳🎈🥂🍾🎁🎊💖xx
Wishing you the Happiest Birthday possible in these bizarre circs!
🌺❤️🌺❤️🌺
Lovely to hear from you. Again, was thinking that I'm not seeing people's posts as yours is the first in ages PMRpro. My settings are correct, so really not sure why I'm not back in the loop with everyone.
Wishing you a very Happy Birthday today. Sun is shining brightly here in Kent and it's getting hotter over the next couple of days.
All we want now is for the blinking virus to 'Do One' so we can all get our lives back on track.
A quick update on my PMR/GCA. All going well . One more week on 13 mg then reducing again by 1 mg for the next 2 weeks. Hoping all continues without any probs. Once I'm down to 10 mg I will stay on each mg for a month.....so will be well into 2021 before I manage to get off the Prednisone completely, so keeping everything crossed.
If you all see my message I'm sending best wishes to you All X
I've been eager for an 'off-piste' !!! (Never heard the term before the forum)
Snow on August 4th??🤔🤔Surely off -piste!!! So much snow....all for you 🎂🎂🎂
I hope you have a good day...you can celebrate how much you help people...I wish I could take you to lunch~! I hope your OH has a good day too. Happy Birthday...💖
I figured it meant "off track" but had never heard it before either. Finally (just now) looked it up. As a fellow North American you may find this interesting:
I💗💗💗💗💗 love language, though I'm no scholar I'm always interested and curious.
Basically it is the same definition that Pro gave...I always feel I'm skirting the edges speech that is not too tasteful...but I love it....off-piste~! My mind is so easily amused. xo
In the same vein, I enjoy cryptic crosswords and those composed in the US are hard to find. The British ones are so full of words/ expressions unfamiliar to me. Finally discovered one from Australia ( now downloaded) that I can usually work. Language, though technically the same one, can be sooo different. 🤗 Happy birthday PMRpro!
Yes,happy birthday from a newbie who just happens to have gained a great deal of info' and help from you, I hope it proves to be a nice day. Thank you.
No, switched to Gruener Veltliner for dinner Roast chicken breast stuffed with cream cheese and wrapped in Parma ham. Even himself commented it was good. Another meal we could both eat - it almost made the chicken acceptable ...
That sounds fantastic PMR Pro you must have a wonderful chef ha ha. Many happy returns of the day! Hope you and your OH really enjoyed yourselves. Warm wishes amid the snow!
Happy Birthday Try a virtual trip to a beautiful place and imagine spending your birthday there Book the best hotel for your virtual holiday after all the price is right Bali would be a nice place to visit for your virtual birthday celebration and it will be nice and warm
With all my warm wishes for your birthday. Good job all these good wishes aren’t cards or you Would have to decorate your balcony. Take care of yourselves. Jen ☃️
Happy Birthday, you deserve the best. Your advice and support to all of us here is invaluable, and we can`t thank you enough. Wishing you all the best.
Happy birthday for yesterday. I’ve been so busy (hope I’m not going to regret it in the morning) I’ve only just logged on to the forum. So I’ve missed your birthday and all the party. Did you drink all the Prosecco?
A belated “Happy Birthday” to you PMRPro 🥂🎂. Mine next week and apparently I am going out somewhere. OH won’t say where, so a magical mystery tour and I certainly hope it doesn’t snow! It usually rains though, so in these strange times anything is possible. Hope you had a nice day despite the weather.
Happy Birthday! I hope you are just like wine, which gets better with age :). Never tried prosecco , but had lots of Croatian prosec ( similar name only, totally different; it is made out of dried grapes, thick, sweet and very potent).
A bit late but hope you had a good birthday. I suppose as well it’s good if it’s uneventful- that makes it a positive experience. Loved your meal of the day and the fact that hubby liked it too- a meal to be added to scant menu choices. Hope you had a glass of your favourite bubbly too. Thank you for all you do for us all. Love Jackie 💐💐x
Didn’t log on yesterday but a belated happy birthday from me and a big thank you for all your sound and knowledgable advice. Prosecco and a wintry view on 4th August - strange times!
Happy belated! 🍾🥂😃👍 It sounds as if it was ‘as good as could be expected’ under the circumstances🥴 - thanks a mill for everything you do on this site. It’s much appreciated - by everyone I’m sure 👍
Late with my Happy Birthday, sorry! Had a few computer issues yesterday afternoon! Whilst the snow may look pretty, it’s quite the wrong time for it, & I hope it disappears fast & the temperature rises! Hope you had a lovely day, S xx
Happy birthday for yesterday. I hope you managed to have a good one. You deserve a good time in return for the help and encouragement you give to so many people.
Belated Happy Birthday wishes to you. Snow in August- whatever next?
Didn’t read posts yesterday as I had hospital appointment to discuss cataract surgery. I’ve progressed to the waiting list proper, but likely to be 3-4 months wait!! Thank goodness for apps on the iPad where I can increase the font size and Change the background colour to help make reading easier.
Hope you had an enjoyable day despite the weather.
Happy belated birthday! I love it when it snows on my birthday but that is November not August! You are certainly special to have it snow on your birthday.
Wishing you all the best on your special day, despite the bizarre weather. Perhaps an extra beverage to mark the occasion! 🥂 or a big slice of bread, bowl of pasta....whatever you regard as a treat.
Since I’ve gotten PMR, I place extra importance on birthdays. We should truly celebrate every year we manage on this earth. It’s also important to celebrate all that you are, all that you give, as you make a difference to many on this earth (especially on this forum).
Sorry I missed your birthday "celebration" yesterday!! Belated HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I feel your pain though, July 1, my anniversary, I was in the hospital with Afib from Covid. LOL Other symptoms were gone but it wanted to have one last stab at me. Doc figures my Prednisone kept my symptoms mild. Hubby and I had a nice TAKE OUT stak dinner 3 weeks later. Not liking this new "normal". LOL
