I didn't post anything yesterday because I was too busy having a birthday. I had so many wonderful birthday wishes and birthday moments. I had a lot of people tell me in person, a lot on Facebook, a lot texted me, I got cards in the mail and I even had several call me on the phone. I appreciated every single happy birthday wish.
Even found some old pics of me in the beginning of life. Above I was just two weeks old. Below was my 1st Birthday.
I have been getting little gifts from my work friends all week. One was this sign that I fell in love with.
One was the beautiful warm blanket for my bed. I put it on the day I got it and slept like a baby all night. Just the right weight and just the right warmth.
I came in one day to find a friend had put a Christmas tree on my desk that is fiber-optic and the star lights up and changes colors. She know my love of Christmas and said I needed a tree for my desk.
I did some shopping yesterday and knocked some more items off my Christmas gift list. Later, I ended up attending the Stampede show. After the show, my arena friends kept telling me to hang around after the show to see a co-worker who has health issues and we hadn't seen in a long time. I went and sat and visited with him after the show. Then as I was leaving they told me the arena manager wanted to see me and even helped me find her. Then she told me not to go nowhere, to go back and visit the co-worker with everybody else. She needed me for something. So I did. Imagine my surprise when she came through the door while I was gathered with all my arena pals and she was carrying a birthday cake and they all started singing to me. One really special friend told me he had bought the cake and got chocolate and coconut. He sure knows me well. He is also the one who keep telling everybody I am only 26. I am not arguing with that logic.
I came home and had a big piece. It was too die for.
So you can see that I had a very special day. As a matter of fact, I have had a very special week that kicked off when dinner with my children on Sunday. I am truly blessed. Now, to go have another piece of the wonderful cake before I head out to work this morning.
