It's my birthday...

well, for two more hours...where did the day go?

we got up at 7:30 for a pancake breakfast - which was really nice - Tim came and brought 3 friends and Sarah was there with 2 friends and Royce was there and the servers sang happy birthday to me...Colleen was working so at 11 - I went to Manhattan Bagel and sat with her and jessie on their break.

We were all very tired from Relay yesterday so we tried napping and I must have slept some because before I knew it it was 1:30...shortly after that my mom and dad called to wish me a happy day. <3 that was really nice. talking to my mom was really good - it felt like it used to 20 years ago or so...I think I even made her laugh which seems to be my goal whenever I talk with her.

Then Sarah took my phone because hers isn't working...so I got laundry started, walked Beaux around the mile, came home and visited with Tim while waiting for Colleen to get home to go get our nails done...I got red nails!!! Not fire engine red but dark purpley red...which most likely won't go with my red sweaters...oh well, I guess I will wear black, white and gray this week...

From the nail salon we went to the mall - but because royce was coming home early, we just ran in and did Colleen's errand... I really wanted to go see if Aerie would give me a special gift for my birthday but there wasn't time.

From the mall we went to dinner - which was nice although the waitress thought she had given us the bill so we sat for 20 -30 minutes longer than necessary...from there i took Angie home and went to the grocery store...

I need to cut up fruit for tomorrow - or do you think I can take an entire watermelon in to the office to cut there??? Nah, I'd better toss clothes from the washer to the dryer, fold dry ones and cut up fruit even though I really wanted to get to bed...

So that is a typical sort of birthday for me...Tim gave me nice smelling lotion and body spray...Colleen, Sarah & Royce gave me two camis, socks, and a cute top from H&M. I got to spend individual time with each of my children (yesterday more with sarah at relay). I feel happy and loved and content.

now if only I could remain thus for the next year.
