Happy Birthday to me!
July 23, 2007
It’s nice when your birthday falls on a Sunday, it turns into more of a birthday weekend. Went out to dinner Friday with John, dinner and margaritas with friends Saturday night, and a day picking blueberries and hanging out with the family today. My mantel is covered with sweet birthday cards and some beautiful flowers from a neighbor.
Been doing lots of lazy, fun summertime stuff–kiddie pool, slip-n-slide, day trips to the Cape and Block Island, and lots of playdates.
Our town is great for picking up cast-offs on the curb…today we found an old oak barrel that will translate nicely into a planter on our deck:

Also started pressing flowers and collecting containers for some fall/winter craft projects. Never too early to start planning…
Hey there, happy birthday! I saw your post at you-know-where, thanks so much for your concern! BTW I sent a postcard to you, but it doesn’t seem to have reached you yet (well, it had to get through a major typhoon and an earthquake so it’s probably understandable). Glad to know you had such a nice birthday!
Contrariety says : I absolutely agree with this !
