Hey, Mom! Talking to My Mother #1106 - 2018 - My sister's birthday - Throwback Thursday for 1808.09
Hi Mom,
Lori's birthday today, but I am not at liberty to divulge the number because I checked, and she does not have the age posted on her Facebook page. But I can share that I am in Michigan to celebrate, and since I am finishing this entry tomorrow, I can already report that we had a great meal at Salt of the Earth in Fennville, which is probably the one area restaurant that Liesel and I did not make it to before we moved out west.
It was a GREAT dinner, right up there on par with any dinner I have had out west and just about one of the best I have ever experienced in west Michigan, though I do qualify as "one of the best."
Pictures exist, and I will add them when I get them from the source.
This one's mostly a reprint of last year's post devoted my sister, Lori Marie's, birthday.
Events like this make me miss you even more, Mom. You would have loved that restaurant and that dinner.
I am back out west now; I flew home this morning, Friday, which is tomorrow from this blog's perspective.
I have essentially been awake since 1:30 a.m. my time and it's 8:40 p.m. Pacific right now.
I am tired.
Enjoy this tribute to my sister, and Happy Birthday Lori.

Hey, Mom! Talking to My Mother #764 - My Sister Lori's Birthday - 2017
Hi Mom,
Today is Lori's birthday. You know, my sister? I am sure you remember... :-)
If I had more time, I would write more about Lori's birthdays over the years and what Lori means to me.
I love my sister very much.
Good choice in having her, Mom!
Lori and I are very close and have regular lunches, which will not be something we can continue with me moving out west.
Fun fact: Lori was born at 10:19 p.m. ( I think that's right... I may be a few minutes off). At that precise time, on most of her childhood birthday, she would scream out the door at the top of her lungs how old she was at the precise moment of her birth. We actually would do a count down sometimes.
Happy birthday, Lori. I am going to miss seeing you more regularly, so you have to come visit.
The pic above is from Lori's second birthday. Lori is in the high chair. The girl to my left is the neighbor girl, Sue McCrumb.
Here's some pics of Lori...

Have someone give you a kiss, and tell you that I love you.
I miss you so very much, Mom.
Talk to you tomorrow, Mom.

NOTE on time: When I post late, I had been posting at 7:10 a.m. because Google is on Pacific Time, and so this is really 10:10 EDT. However, it still shows up on the blog in Pacific time. So, I am going to start posting at 10:10 a.m. Pacific time, intending this to be 10:10 Eastern time. I know this only matters to me, and to you, Mom. But I am not going back and changing all the 7:10 a.m. times. But I will run this note for a while. Mom, you know that I am posting at 10:10 a.m. often because this is the time of your death.

NEW (written 1708.27) NOTE on time: I am now in the same time zone as Google! So, when I post at 10:10 a.m. PDT to coincide with the time of your death, Mom, I am now actually posting late, so it's really 1:10 p.m. EDT. But I will continue to use the time stamp of 10:10 a.m. to remember the time of your death, Mom. I know this only matters to me, and to you, Mom.
