Happy 72nd birthday to my grandmother. Longtime readers may remember her from the Mazie Project 2002, in which I tried to get as many people as possible to send her birthday cards for her 70th.

For her birthday, she asked for a DustBuster. Her wish is my command.

What a cutie! Happy Birthday to Mazie. I had no idea I shared a birthday week with such a distinguished Louisianian.

Happy Happy to Miz Mazie, and may she bust dust for many more hypoallergenic years. Has her health improved since MP2K?

Hey, long time no chat, Miz LisLei. :)

I can't say her health has really improved -- she's on oxygen full-time and not particularly mobile. But she still manages to live alone, and she can still get around with a walker. Honestly, we thought we didn't have more than a few months left a couple years ago, so the fact she's pretty much unchanged is a blessing.

Please extend my birthday greetings to Mazie as well - if she is well enough to dust, she must be well indeed!
