  1. That must have taken some control. It’s instinct to push the space bar!
    Hope your birthday was as contentad as it sounds.

  2. Mazel tov dear Jeni on your birthday! May this year be full of happiness and love for you without any space for anything else in between(as in your blog – unless your space bar was jammed!)
    I missed you this sunday on your show and enjoyed your last week’s chat with the ‘Lord’. Did he send you that card?! I was always wandering if you’ve ever crossed paths with him, being that you come from similar backgrounds with East End roots…he should’ve hired you!
    G-d bless u jeni,
    Love ‘L’
