MOYNA'S SOAPBOX (1)
I thought I would do a post since I haven't been heard from since June!
Yesterday was my 56th birthday...and it was actually one of the nicer ones I've had in a few years. I didn't do anything - except straighten up the kitchen. I had done some catering for Fred on Tuesday & Thursday, so the kitchen needed to have things put away. It's been way too hot here, so I just relaxed for my birthday - trying to stay cool. The weatherman said it would be cooler - only around 100 or 101 - what difference does it make when it's that HOT?!!
As one of my gifts, Fred gave me a diamond heart necklace. It was a really touching, great surprise!! I love my jewelry, and am quite picky about what I like - especially when it comes to heart items, so Fred is always nervous when he buys me something, but he did good (really good)!! I have wanted a heart necklace for years, but have never seen anything I like - but I really like this!! What is touching, is that Fred bought me diamonds; this is the first time in the almost 27 years that we have been married that he has bought me diamonds - that he has picked out himself and surprised me with. He has bought me pieces that I've picked out and said I wanted, but he did this ALL ON HIS OWN - and it only took almost 27 years!!!
Freddy gave me an AUBURN windspinner. I was so excited when I saw it...I love windspinners and loved seeing an AU one!! It is really cute with cut-outs of tiger paws. He hung it on the tree right outside the kitchen window with my new hummingbird windspinner. Now I can enjoy both of them everytime I wash the dishes.
I missed not having my chocolate birthday cake (it's really the icing I missed not having), but had told Fred NO cake or candy - I don't need it. BUT..., of all things, my mother sent me 2 lbs. of See's candy - my favorite. Could not believe it!! She is always telling me to lose weight, and then she turns around and buys me candy!! So much for the diet the next two weeks...but we will all enjoy it!!
The cats even gave me a birthday present - they let me sleep for about an hour and a half longer than usual!! The 'dark one' (Webster) always starts in between 5 & 6 am to get us up by 6 at the latest. Yesterday, I got to sleep until 7:30!!! It's AMAZING what an extra hour & one-half can do for your mood when you get up & the energy you have during the day!! Today was business as usual...
Fred just said that's enough for this blog...
'Til later,
The birthday girl!!!
