Happy Birthday Connie, love Salty, Salty the Road Dog
Yes, my baby girl Connie is 39…AGAIN today. Born on the 13th of October.
My children’s father’s birthday is on the 12th, mine on the 1st.. Didn’t really think of any connection early on. My eldest son Ken, born on the 13th of March…funny. Then my middle son, Rodney, born on the 13th of February…..oh my! Top it off with Douglas, uh huh…born on Ken’s birthday, the 13th of March. Eventually I wrote a letter to Guinness Book of records and found out that another woman had 5 children born on the 13th’. Did I mention that Doug was born 13 months after Rodney?
And so the story goes….Connie and Ken had their tonsils out on the 13th, hospital room 13 in bed 13 a & 13b. All got their driver’s licenses on the 13th…
I filed for divorce on the 13th, sold my house, then closed on the 13th, bought the next house on the 13th and closed a month later on the 13th!
The saga continues….with a new twist…Russ and I went out on a date May 4th 2011 but couldn’t leave the house till we watched the Kentucky Derby Run for the Roses on TV. On May 4th 2012 we were at the Kentucky Derby WATCHING the Run for the Roses in person…in the rain! So of course it would make sense to be married on May 4th ….2013 ! ! ! ! ! ! and we were late to our wedding reception as we had to stop and watch the Kentucky Derby Run for the Roses on TV. What can I say?
Does it end there? No…as you can see by the picture of the restaurant pager, that 13 is still with us. Did I mention that this husband’s birthday is also on the 12th….and mine on the 1st?
