Pretty in Pink and 63 years old today. I should make myself one of these scarves...doncha think?I am happy to say I am healthy, wealthy and wise today, and have had a great year with lots of interesting ups and downs.
Who can forget Dave's accident? Quickly followed by the new puppy...
to make everyone feel better.
I am not blowing out any candles today, too much of a fire risk, but will just be lazy and count my blessings. It's been a pretty darn good year.

Happy Birthday!
happy birthday Melody! I´m a faithful reader of your wonderful blog, but a terribly lazy commenter I´m afraid. I love to visit you here for all the bright and, sometimes, crazy colours and your way of describing life´s little turns and twists.
best wishes from Iceland

Many happy returns, young lady! (I will be 69 this year.) As I tell my husband, the lucky ones get old. The really lucky ones enjoy the trip! I'm always happy to read your blog and see how you are enjoying the trip! Got many a chuckle out of Chumley's joie de vivre in yesterday's video clip. Muchas gracias!!

Happy, happy day!
When I was young, I used to think that "Age is just a number" was something that old people said. Now I know that it is also great experiences, wonderful memories, friends who finally understand me, and daily discoveries.

Happy Birthday, Melody...I hope it is just as you want it, and even better. I'm glad Dave weathered his accident, and you too, and the cherry on top is Chums ~ what a perfect addition to your family.
From another fan who seldom posts - happiest day to you.
Your blog was one of the first I followed, and remains one of the best I check on nearly every day.
Thanks for all the eye candy! Thanks for your generous sharing of your artwork, and the posts about all the ups and downs of life.
May the pup not eat your birthday cake. May Dave stay off a cycle. May your needles be snag free, and your fibers everlasting.
Happy Birthday!

Hi Melody,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Your blog is so inspiring. Whenever I feel a need for a pick-me-up I check out your blog to see what you've been quilting, knitting, baking, sewing, photographing . . . and then I feel like I want to create something too.
Many happy returns! How amazing that you and your mum were born on the same day - I think you would've been a lovely birthday present :-)
Wishing you as many more birthdays as you wish to have.
Happy, happy birthday. May warmth and hope be yours.
Melody - Happy Birthday and many wishes for a great year ahead. I follow your blog daily and am inspired by all you do. Thank you for your friendship and support.
Hugs - Marie

Happy Birthday Melody! I am still loving your wonderful painting "Red Bells" and smile and think of you each day when I get to see it in person in my kitchen and again when I visit your blog to see what you have been up to lately. I hope you have a great day.
I commented this morning, however, at the time thought perhaps it went into cyberspace never to be read here.
Sure enough, when I just now looked NOT HERE.
It's a bit late in the day to wish a great birthday day.
So will wish you the very best for the coming years - hope they just get better and better for you, Melody.
Will be celebrating my own b/d in a couple of days.
Have new yarn for a baktus w/ bobbles ready to co.
Hugs,
Gerry
Happy Birthday!!! Yes, you deserve a scarf of your own. (My b-day was Dec. 20, and your green scarf was a present to myself.)

Happy birthday . . . so many of us love reading your interesting and colourful blog . . . that's your birthday gift to us.
Have a wonderful day,
Happy Birthday, Melody! I wish you a happy, contented day and an amazing, creative year.
