like i said … i had this all typed up last night. and "poof" … it was gone. i'm still mad about that. lol! last night i had this all in more detail … but now i'm just doing the condensed and to the point version. just to be able to look back on.
- girls gave me handmade cards when i woke up. alyssa also had my large glass of soda all ready for me when i came downstairs. they would have made me breakfast … but i don't eat breakfast.
- joe brought me starbucks and peanut butter cups when he got home from work in the morning.
- i only had nikolas … so it was nice and quiet. he was a little fussy … but took 2 excellent naps … so it evened out.
- had a few phone calls and emails from friends and family wishing me a happy birthday.
- all my daycare kids brought me little presents. i had been joking a few weeks ago that they better start preparing for my birthday … and that gift cards would be accepted. lol! i was kidding … but they still surprised me!
- one of my bestest friends, deneen, brought my lunch and stayed to chat for a bit. sandwiches, chips, deserts, and another starbucks!
- got some fun birthday cards in the mail. love the one that sara made me … and that she actually figured out when my birthday was from some random comment i had left on her blog.
- wendy gave me a nice little birthday shout-out on her blog … fun to come across!
- girls got home from school with amanda … and they were all pretty good for me. not too much fighting.
- went to dinner with joe and the girls. had some yummy comfort food … pot roast and mashed potatoes. i would NOT let them tell the server that it was my birthday … much to sarah's dismay.
- and loved that so many people guessed that i was turning 32 years old. because it sounds good. but reality is … i'm 38 now. crazy!
and i'm sending a huge "thank you" to my friend nichol … for making me my new blog banner! isn't it fun! i had made that last one with paper products … and while i loved it on paper, i didn't love the colors for my blog. nichol mentioned that she wouldn't mind making me a digital one … and i totally took her up on her offer. i gave her some colors i had in mind … and she did the rest. and she was even very patient with me when i asked her to make a few changes. lol! i really loved what she came up with … and i appreciate her helping me with it. thanks nichol!
