Birthday!

Happy birthday to me! I did not have to worry about people forgetting. Hubby woke me up before he left for work and wished me a happy one. I went back to sleep and was woken up twice, once by my sister singing an lively rendition of "Happy birthday!" into my cell phone across the many miles that separate us, and again by my best friend who also called across the miles just to say happy birthday, and to chide me for being asleep at 10:30. I had to remind her that I came down with a cold yesterday and I was resting up.

Yes, that's right. I was bestowed with a cold that turned my head into a giant snot balloon yesterday. I took some airborne, some nyquill, and smeared neosporin on my raw nose before bed. Miraculously this morning I haven't had to blow my nose once. I actually breathed through my nose all night. Yesterday I also had a flare up of my chronic medically condition and my period was late. I was very upset. Today I feel better and dear old Aunt Flo made her visit. Maybe the fates have deemed me deserving of a happy birthday after all. I was beginning to think I had done something terribly wrong to cause my karma to be so screwed up.

Well, that's about it I guess. Since Best Friend woke me up I decided to get up. I found a really sweet card from Hubby on the couch for me. It made me love him even more. Now I'm going to go enjoy some strawberry yogurt blast Cheerios and watch Paperclips (I love DVR!). When Hubby gets home we'll go eat Mexican food and I'll get to open some presents from my sister and best friend. I have to wait till Saturday to celebrate with my folks and the in-laws and get my gift from Hubby. Hope everyone has a great day. And happy birthday to my birthday twin Carissa!

And since I don't have any pictures of any birthday cakes of mine. Here is one I made for my mother's 50th Birthday last year. Yes that is 50 candles. There is a big 50 made out of cookies on top, which is surrounded by cookie stars, but the candles eclipse it. =)
