A New Year...
Jan. 11th, 2008 10:12 amMost of the time I would put off making any sort of 'New Year's Resolutions' because it seemed to make more sense to make Birthday's Resolutions, the date being so close and more relevant...
So far- turning 29 for the fifth time as been good. :) The body's way of celebrating was to remove the migraine (yesterday), YAY! but chose to woke me up at 4 AM with a charlie horse/severe muscle cramp in my right calf. Fun... or something.
Hubby got up when I did (later than 4 am...) and made cinnamon rolls for breakfast! YUM! Opened my birthday cards- the one from my MIL was so sweet. I think she likes me. :) See, MIL makes all her own cards, she's gotten quite good with graphics on the computer. So they're all pretty and have poetry and stuff. Plus the usual two scratch off Lotto cards. It's a family tradition. Mom got me a card that made me all sniffly too.
Only working a half day (yay!) so hubby and I can go get passports this afternoons. Step one in the great 'Fleeing the Country!' plan will be complete. Or at least we'll be able to go visit Canada...
So yes, in an excellent mood- and trying to figure out where I want to go to for dinner (birthday's have to be celebrated with dinner out, it's a household rule... that I just made up. Hmm, must find a flag. *grins*). Hubby has something up his sleeve, dunno what, but he's very good about spoiling me on my day. I once commented to him that growing up there would be times we'd have birthday parties for me at some other date (further from Christmas). Birthdays just didn't seem to be a big deal in my family (though that could just be my perception). I, being a selfish creature, want my birthday to be a big deal- he obliges because he loves me, and is apparently quite glad I was born. :)
Thank you to everyone who has wished me a happy birthday- I can't tell you how happy it makes me. :) So I hope you all have a wonderful day!
