Belinda turns 50!
It was time for the birthday celebration...a big one for Belinda! But that morning, I woke up with red creases under my eyes, and as the day progressed my eyes worsened. Work was too hectic to give my eyes any attention. I noticed they were itching, but didn't realize they looked so awful. By the time I arrived at Beth's for Belinda's big celebration, my eyes were a distraction to all of us for a while. Beth offered a benadryl (which I had to wait to take until I arrived home), then offered a cool wash cloth (which I held under my eyes for a long time), then Beth brought out her blue ice eye mask. It felt good, plus it covered up my monster eyes. So I went with it for a while. We wanted a group picture and my pride would not allow one without the mask, thus the photo below:




Beth and Belinda look so great!







Beth is trying to be kind and not laugh (yah, noble attempt)





But Belinda just let loose! Can you hear her laughing?

So Beth loaned me some of her cool shades and this is the final photo.

We had a wonderful time catching up and just being in each other's warm company, blessed by the tie that binds.
