Happy Birthday….

January 3rd, 2007 · 5 Comments

to me. Yes, indeed today is my birthday. And I turned 35, I really already did turn since I was born around 9AM.

The bad things I got for my Birthday:

A serious toothache. Funny thing about that is that the tooth on the opposite side is cracked and needs to be fixed. I had an appointment to get it fixed, but canceled because I was sick. Hubby says the first problem tooth got tired of me not listening to it, so it said, “Ok you won’t listen to me, but I bet you will listen to my friend Ted…”. Thus the real trouble begins.

At the little convenience store at work I bought a Vitamin Water, the guy at the counter put it in a bag, which I never ask for. I picked up the item by the bag, said bag rips, and my bottle drops onto the floor, busts open and liquid goes all over my legs.

Plus I am still miserably sick, and no one, I mean no one deserves to be sick on their Birthday.

The COOL things I got for my Birthday:

Lot’s of Birthday wishes - included was the nursery school class wishes at the baby’s school. They were all outside today when I went to pick her up and they all sang Happy Birthday!

A piece of cake from my co-workers from a fancy bakery.

Fin got a new block set from Zayde! (Yes that is a gift for me too!)

A super amazing sunset, followed by a near perfect moon!

A card from my friend Becca - that had a special gift inside - a subscription to Real Simple! This is a fabulous gift because I LOVE LOVE LOVE magazines.

Cupcakes with chocolate frosting from hubby, and Fin. Even though I told them no, it made me very happy. Oh, and in a tiny, tiny box next to them was some meringue cookies, and a couple coconut macaroons. (YUMMY)

My last Birthday gift to myself is going to be going to bed early.

    Hope you got that last gift and are reading this tomorrow—-I was sick on mine too, and spent much of it in the sleep of exhaustion. (Made up for it with a very nice dinner out during the holidays with my husband—something we rarely, rarely ever do now.)

    Happy Happy Birthday! (esp. the blocks and the cupcakes)

    Happy birthday to you from Uncle Noah! Hope it’s a good one, please enjoy those cupcakes.

    And sorry about the toothache and cracked tooth, I actually had one of those about 2 weeks ago. Easily fixed but not too fun. The good news though was that I read every issue of “Highlights” magazine he had in the office.

    Happy birthday to you!
