Cheers!

Dear Diary,

A lovely dinner with my cousins at the Old Saco Inn, not far from me.  Always so nice to get together with them and to talk about our upcoming trip to Ireland in May where I will be celebrating my (chokes) 70th birthday.  We toasted Punxsutawney Phil's early spring prediction and our (fingers crossed) prediction that our Boston team will win the Super Bowl tonight.  We also toasted the returning "warmth", well, this morning it's above zero so that's progress!  So, much to look forward to, to be grateful for, and to celebrate.  CHEERS!
