Today

Today is a very special day.

It's my Birthday!!!

So far it has been really exciting

Got up at 7:15am
Took a shower, dried my hair, ate breakfast.
Kevin got Madeline up and dressed.
Took Madeline to Doodlebugs.
Forgot my lunch.
Stopped by home to get said lunch.
Taught my first class. (they sang me Happy Birthday)
Taught my second class.
Now I am eating my lunch (nothing fancy or special) and reading e-mails.
Then I will teach my third class.

It is a totally normal Thursday. (except for the singing of course.) Oh, the joys of being a grown up. Remeber when birthdays were fun? Where is the fun in my birthday?

To top if off, Kev works until 10pm tonight. Bummer for him and for me. He is off all day tomorrow so it isn't too bad. (My dad is taking me out to dinner tonight and I have Ms. Lula Belle (Madeline) so I am not alone.)

So I have to ask, how do you celebrate your birthday? Do you do anything exciting? I need help! Please, send me suggestions on how to make this day awesomer! (Yes, I said awesomer!)

Gone away is the blue bird

I am not a scrooge. I promise. I just ask that my husband refrain from listening to Christmas music until after my birthday. (Which is this week if you must know.) It is the one and only restriction I put on his Christmas joy. (I think he would listen to Christmas music year round if I didn't set limits, and I do cave for Christmas in July.)

Have you tuned in to 101.1 FM lately? They are changing formats so instead of continuing with whatever they were playing before, they are playing 24/7 holiday music. I think Kevin might be in on this. He and the radio stations have conspired against me. And it is not the kind you do by the fire.

I'm a winner

Last week I was given my first award. Thank you Tara! I am sorry I didn't jump right up and post it... but I am feeling overwhelmed in my life. Excuses, excuses.


So there it is. My fantastic and very wonderful award. My first one! So thank you Tara. Maybe when I have more time I will nominate others for this award. Until then I am just going to be selfish and keep it all for myself.
