Going To Town

My birthday weekend was GREAT! One of the best I've had in a LONG time!

Friday, we celebrated my birthday at work. Food, cards, decorations...and a dozen pink roses from my friend. Everyone say it...Awwww. Yes, he's that sweet. The sweeter part of it, he didn't have/know the address to my work, and he did a lot of leg work to get it without me knowing.

Friday night, my friend and I went to dinner. Fancy dinner. Somewhere that takes reservations. I think I can count on 1 hand how many times I've been at a place that takes reservations. It was nice to get semi-dressed up & go out. He didn't tell me where we were going or anything & I didn't fight with him (that much) about it being a surprise. The service was good, the food was GREAT, the company was fabulous! Not something that this NOT girly girl could do all the time, but it was nice.

Saturday afternoon, I went to youngest cousin's birthday party. They made me a cake & signs and stuff too, which was sweet. I had a good time there. My one Aunt was annoying me, but whatever. She was bugging my Mom too.

Saturday night, we went downtown for dinner to Cheli's Chili. It was cool. The service was GREAT, the chili was GREAT, the other food was decent. Then we went to the bar. It was a bar that's much more my kind of bar. I was a GREAT time. My friends managed to be cordial. THANK YOU ST & SML!!!

Sunday, my actual birthday. My friend and I did a whole lot of nothing. We went to visit with Shell (who is one of my best friends and happens to be his sister-in-law) since she's been sick & missed going out for my birthday. We grabbed Burger King for lunch then we went shopping. SHOPPING like crazy at Kohl's. Its all okay when you have a coupon! Then we came home and chilled in front of the fireplace. I love fireplaces! I really love my friend's fireplace. Its one of the cool gas kind, where all we have to do is flip the switch.

Today I got home to get my gift from Jo. Scrapbooking pens & a body pillow. YAY! Plus some cards & cash from family & friends.

I honestly, can't recall a better birthday. Thanks everyone for everything!

Starting Wednesday until ???? I'll be at Gma's full time. I'm not happy but I'll manage.

God is love!
