And the next bit of good news is:  

YOU'RE INVITED TO MOM'S 80th BIRTHDAY OPEN HOUSE!

It's this Sunday, August 11th, her actual birthday, from noon to 4 p.m. at: 15607 Tylermont Drive, Cypress, TX. If you want to bring something, bring a writing pad or tablet and a pen or marker. We're taking up a donation of these writing materials. We'll explain why later.

Mom is very, very excited about this special birthday. She intends to blow out 80 candles. That's right, 80, and Susana is baking a cake big enough to hold them. Of course, instead of frosting you may wind up biting into wax. So come and share this special occasion with Mom. She'll be delighted to see you.
