*<:-) Birthday Smiley

Today is my birthday *<:-)

I received a card yesterday from a quilting friend with a lot of the smileys you can make on your computer keyboard.
Here are a few:

I LOVE this quilt!  I think I love it so much because it has ORANGE in it and orange just makes me happy :)
All of the straight line quilting is interesting and nice too - very cool effect!

Funny story - last week the man who delivers Schwans stopped by to bring me my order and he spotted my 4th of July quilt and admired it.  He told me that he is going to start his own business making men's shirts because they don't sell enough men's shirts with ORANGE in them! Maybe we'll start seeing more orange in men's clothing soon :)

I had to Google to see if I'm now a senior citizen or not.  While I may receive a senior citizen discount at some places at age 55, most places recognize senior citizens at 65 - so I have another decade. I wonder what the really old smiley is?
Have a great day!!  :-))
