My Birthday

Today we started out the day going up to the Old Clarkesville mill looking for furniture. We took Nanny and Papa, but I think we were dragging Papa along for the ride. I'm sure a man isn't that interested in furniture shopping especially if it's not for his house. We went out to lunch at Zaxby's and then headed back to the mill to bowl. It was too expensive for us to bowl $4.50 per person, and then $3 for each additional game. We normally bowl on dollar night here, so we skipped the bowling, and went back to the in laws for ice cream and conversation. When I got home I noticed a box of chocolates on my kitchen table, they were from a dear friend (thanks Maura), I am embarrassed that she saw my house in the state of squalor that it is, but oh well what are friends for? This birthday is no big deal, 30 was a whopper and I didn't like 35 because that meant I was closer to 40 than 30. My b-day falls on a cool day this year so I was sorta excited about that. We just got back from my new house, I was showing it to my parents, they hadn't seen it yet since they have been vacationing at the outer banks (NC). Thanks for all the well wishes everyone, I am truly blessed.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!

40 isn't really bad.... I have been here for three months now, and I am fine. Well, as fine as a nut like me can be!

I can't wait to see pic of your new house! I am praying for your house to sell.

Those cooking workshops are about $65 for the hands-on classes and are usually from 6:30-9:30 on weeknights. We won't get home 'till nearly midnight is the downside. There's classes on Italian, Desserts, Special Salads, Sushi (not for me), and even a knife skills class. I was supposed to get a free class because Paul built the cabinets at the showroom, but that was over a year ago and they probably forgot. Oh, Happy Bitrhday!
