Happy birthday to Dolan Chaffin May 21, and D.C. Beckman May 24.

A belated happy Mother's Day to all of the mothers out there. As usual, I was "Queen for a Day" with our family, even though all of them live in other areas. The house becomes a greenhouse with flowers, and they are so beautiful, and the phone was busy all morning with happy calls. The next step was dinner out, so I didn't have to cook. I hope you all had as happy a day as I did.

Stay safe and stay well. See you next week.
