Margaritas and cake, who needs anything else?

That's my mom, before her  accident, my husband, Guy, and a friend, Maria

My surprise 60th.

I had  surprise party for my 60th birthday. My fabulous husband, Guy, set it up at our favorite Mexican restaurant, "Joselito's", in Tujunga, where we live.  My closest friends and precious family members were there. Guy prepared a beautiful slide
show with music. Almost everybody at the party  was in the show. Guy, for weeks before, scoured my office for all of my  photos. The party was so much fun, because, we all were screaming at each other," Look, look remember when we...."  The food was great and my mom got us a gorgeous  cake which read, "Happy Birthday Lulu and Guygee," our nicknames. I will be posting  party pics on and off.

Mom in Emergency Room in Anaheim

Here's my brave mom in the emergency room at a local Anaheim hospital, the afternoon she popped a wheelie( outside one of the hotels in Disneyland), in her electric cart, and broke her hip.

She's doing well. They gave her a new ball in her hip joint, and she's already walking. Her accident took place on Sunday.  Now she goes to rehab, then home with a walker for 6 months. She can't drive for 3 months, and It's gonna be a real challenge for all of us. She's 83 and very independent!!!!!









This is the spot were she flew through the air like Tinkerbell.

A Beautiful Blue Day

This is our windmill in our front yard.  The moon was shining at 8:30 in the morning. Sunday was a gorgeous day.

the 3 room suite

So, this is what greeted me  in the 3 room suite at the Paradise Pier Hotel in Disneyland. They sure known how to make a birthday girl feel welcomed!

The cookies were good, and the Rice Crispy treats were awesome!!!





I'm the one  with my head in Goofy's mouth!

Look at the cute beach chair wallpaper in the bathroom.

Our trip to disneyland

For my 60th  birthday, this year, my mom surprised me by having my cousin come down here with her daughter and daughter's boyfriend to LA. We went to disneyland. We stayed at the Paradise Pier, Room number 1515, a 3 room suite. We were on our way to Club 33 for a fabulous dinner, when my mom in one of those electric scooters, drove off the curb. She went flying out of it and broke her hip. She is 83. We ended up staying the night, in a hospital in Anaheim waiting, for a transfer to St. Joseph's in Burbank.  This hospital almost completely catered to "Disneyland patrons. They came in with Mickey ears on, limping, or with a broken shoulder, or chest pains. It didn't look like Disneyland, for them was the "Happiest" place on earth.   My mom is now, resting comfortably in Burbank, with a new ball in her hip joint. She will be in for a couple of days, then to a rehab facility, then on a walker for 6 months. She will not be able to drive for 3 months, so I'll be pretty busy for a while. Needless to say, we never made it to Club 33. But, my cousin, who I insisted on still going to the restaurant, to meet our party, already there, did bring back, to our hotel room,  a lamb chop for me to gnaw on. Yum!  Anywho. I've been to the Club before, so no biggy. I'm just glad  my "Ma" is fine. Pictures of the 3 room suite, to follow soon.
