Might Just Be a Whole Birthday Week!!

:) Mornin! Just had a few moments this morning and we wanted to say a special thanks for all your cards, greetings, and Happy Birthday songs yesterday! You all have such lovely voices!! We laughed and giggled all day long, especially when hearing the little tinkle saying someone added an message! My poor son was trying to get on with his business at hand and we’d hear the noise and say, "but, but ... we gotta go look! Someone’s saying, "Happy Birthday!!""

By now he is well aware of our "silliness!" Whatta kid!

Actually, that was one of two surprises. He called about 9:30 to sing a Happy Birthday song with my 3 year old granddaughter. Then he asked if he could stop by and we do lunch. I was scared to leave the computer project too long, so we agreed that he could bring a couple of sandwiches and yes our favorite cake is "Carrot!" *Sigh* We had to take care of bills too, but mostly this consisted of him throwing away all the junk mail we get over a month’s time and running the actual few bills through the on-line account. Not so bad. He let me talk on the computer while he was doing the sorting and we had had the loooooooonnnngest most interesting talk on his work (and my middle son's). 

My oldest son drew out a whole interpretation of their office and his station.  Heheh - he's circled by three computers AND five screens!  We still couldn't define the differences between the Dow, Nasdex, and S&P, but we know the boys are on top of all that!  The two boys and a couple of their peers were thown a challenge that my son was leading up to.  Apparently, who ever makes the next $25,000, gets an extra $1,000 from the boss!  Did I mentioned my kids can do competitive??  Hehehe ... I know in their world it's just change, but the oldest figures it's a trip to LA next month to visit a computer friend.  See no problem there!  How they all do dearly love games!  They got that from my ex...  *Sigh*

THEN, somewhere about here, we received our official notice that Lady Viv had not only posted her special birthday ‘sprises, but was also there to wish us well! It had been Vince, of course, that had started off our day with an early morning chat and umm, more than one card!!! Oh man - terrifically good mood ALLLLLLLL day long! Pam, Sandy, Tammy and Maria ... shoot you all make me wanna cry!! Maria - you’ve been practicing the song in the shower, I see? LOL ... Damn just a rollicking good day! Not to mention some pretty good hugs and smooches!!

Then our friend, who’d apparently misplaced someone’s birthday earlier in the morning thought he better/might shake a leg and be bringing straight over pronto someone some very, very pretty flowers and a rib dinner! You know ... I think this is why women don’t tell men their birthdays more directly! And, then he brought a SECOND Happy Birthday cake! This one was filled with strawberries on the top! I felt very special ... and well you know you can’t go wrong with two cakes in a "multiple" household!

Viv, we also wanted to make sure and say a special thank you for making even our Dear Heart happy! While pretty bashful, you managed to ferret out a smile or two, though one Casey might have stated at least one, "no fair!" But, then there WERE two cakes! Hehehe now if we could only make our fingers stop buzzing this morning ... we may be on a tiny little sugar buzz! But, who am I to say... Certainly was a good day. I like being 45 already!!

Whoops, gotsta go ... we’re seeing Dr. M. first thing ... and I hear ... It’s going to be like somebodies birthday ALLLL week, especially tomorrow ... we are to understand our bookshelves are coming in already ....

YYYYYYYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYY!!!!

OH MAN!  You want tears ... stop in over at Shana's Place!
