I have to post on my birthday, right? I was a women of leisure today! I took the day off from work. I did still have to drive carpool this morning, and then there were still 2 loads of laundry to fold, so I did that too, but then I took some leisure...I started with dying my hair...gotta officially hide the grays now! Then I took a hot shower. While there, I noticed that the bathroom could use a nice cleaning, so I interupted my life of leisure to clean the master bath, but then, went back to celebrating...I went to the library...one of my favorite places...love the smell of books! Unfortunately, they were having story time there and so my typically quiet library was overrun with toddlers who weren't exactly listening to the story and their mommies who were enjoying a social hour. Then, moved on, to picking up my bestest friend, Shauna. Together, we went to see the Last Song. Did not know I would be crying in this film, so if you are going to go see it, take a few kleenix! Then we went to Archibald's Restaurant for lunch! Boy, was that yummy. I hadn't been there for 15 plus years and I wonder why I haven't gone there more frequently. Afterward, I dropped Shauna home and came home to encourage McKay and Noah to do their reading and piano practicing while I took calls from my friends and family sending their birthday wishes.
Then the Chief arrived home and took us all out to Cafe Rio (YUM, YUM, YUM) for dinner and then we went to the Sweet Tooth Fairy, which is a new bakery in town. I learned about it from Nie Nie at nieniedialogues.blogspot.com. If you haven't heard of Stephenie and her blog, I highly recommend reading her story, and her blog. It is so inspiring. And her vaNIElla cupcake named after her was so delicious and the perfect thing to end this special day of mine.
And I've even included a photo to mark the occasion!
Happy 40th Birthday to me!
