A Special Day for Me

Guess what day it is? I didn't used to tell when it was my birthday, but as I get older...I'm just shameless, I guess. I was born 76 yrs. ago on a snowy morning. This morning is beautiful and the day ahead sounds perfect. I ordered it especially for my day. It's pool day and we are getting ready to go.... after all my family and friends birthday wishes in cards, on facebook, emails, and early phone calls.. etc. I'll be back later on with more....

PS...I made that cupcake huge so we all could have a bite :)

I'm back. It's late afternoon and rain is expected any time now...although the sun is still shining. We went to the pool and then came home and had breakfast. We celebrated yesterday and my kids will be here on Easter Sunday to celebrate again...so I decided to finish up what I had started in the dining room. Our hutch needed cleaning, so I took everything out and dusted it well. I decided to continue putting things in bins that collect dust. I had to run to town to buy two more bins.I got a couple of med. sized ones...so they wouldn't be heavy for me to carry. I filled them and marked them as to what they contained. Now my kitchen cabinet topper and hutch are neat and tidy. You probably think I'm a neat freak....always cleaning. It takes me longer to do these tasks than it did years ago. Today, I was up and down and answering the phone from people with birthday wishes.
Our lawn man came over and they picked up twigs and branches. He told us he would fertilize in a few days and then wait for the grass to grow...so he can start the mowing season. Won't it be nice to see green instead of white? He is going to put some mulch down before things start popping up. I am so excited to start the gardening this year. I hope my body cooperates.
We'll take it easy tonight. We'll have a light supper and there are several TV programs that we watch on Monday.
See you tomorrow,
Balisha
