Another year and counting...

Yes, today was my birthday~ though some members of my family were having problems remembering certain aspects of the day; MIL was upset I wasn't being taken to dinner- not surprising since she called yesterday; Mother sent me a card, declaring that she can hardly believe that 49 years have passed- except I'm only 46; my older brother called this morning, completely out of the blue- to ask for our aunt's address. Eye-rolling Good thing that birthdays aren't all that important to me anymore; don't get me wrong, I'm glad to be having another- the alternative is grim- but other then calls from my children & simple wishes for a happy day, I'm uncomfortable when people make a fuss.

I'm taking my personal day tomorrow & plan on heading out of town for the day; exactly where, I'm not certain at this point, but I need a day alone, preferably with a good cup of tea & some yarn shopping. Open-mouthed



Prom has come & gone; Sam has proclaimed the event a success, using words like "awesome", "sweet", & "epic"~ I believe he had a good time Wink

Happy Birthday to you! I'm not big on birthdays either, but I do like when friends/family remember. Just to say happy birthday I suppose. I feel like I'm getting too old for the fuss now, but it's nice to hear those two little words! :)

Prom looks like a blast. I'm sure it was an epic time! Too funny!

Here I am, a day late in saying Happy Birthday which makes me feel bad that I've added to the list. However, I sincerely wish you a wonderful new year in your life and hope all your dreams come true.

Your son looks quite handsome. I'm so glad he enjoyed this big night out with his beautiful date.

Sam looks a LOT like Tom Cruise in the second picture (sunglasses)!

I hope you have a wonderful birthday and that tomorrow is even better off on your own for that perfect cup of tea and lots of yarn! :)

Happy Birthday! {No worries, Meg, my family often forgets the details of my birthday too. Especially the one where it happens. :)} I hope you have a wonderful personal day and treat yourself to all sort of deliciousness!
