Happy Busy Day

Yesterday the day started with a phone call from my sister in WI wishing me a Happy Birthday. Then another sister sent me a HB email.

I went to work and a few of my co-workers had placed cards and small gifts on my desk. A single rose, a nice plaque, body lotion and a chocolate chip cookie and a promise of lunch out at a Thai restaurant next week.

Then it got better. The sun was shinging beautifully. My receptionist came in and brought me a pair of handmade beaded purple earrings. I've admired her work before and thought it was just beautiful. I'm wearing them today. My mom called and wished me a happy day.

Then my Sweetie came up on his lunch break and told me he loved me. The sun still shining!

Then I took my lunch and actually started on writing a book. I didn't get far, but got some of the main characters mapped out and the story line.

I had to go to our main storage at the landfill and find two very old files from the 80's. After about one hour of searching I found them! Hallelujah! Then one of the guys loaded my 6 boxes in their vehicle, drove them to town and unloaded them and carried them upstairs for me. I like nice men.

Then I got home and my daughter called. I love my daughter. Then I listened to my messages and my son had called, so I called him back. I love my son.

Then my husband came home and took me out to dinner. Scampi Mostaciolla at Las Margaritas. It's my favorite. It was delicious and filling so I had half of it put in a to-go box and now I have a delicious lunch for today.

Could your Birthday get any better than that? It was a perfect day!

Happy Birthday! Sounds like you had such a blessed day with lots of thoughtful things throughout and even something fun and creative. Keep working on the book. Adult fiction or kids?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY FRIEND. I wish I was there to surprise you with some balloons made from Origami (not sure if I spelled it right) but it's the thought, right?

I'm so very happy that you have a wonderful day and that your loving family shared in your special day!

Many, many, many more!
Love and hugs,

So you are a May Day baby.....your mother was given the best kind of "delivered" gift! It was good to see how your special day had joy and peace surrounding it. I am reminded again of how our Heavenly Father delights us with good things.

Happy Birthday!
