...it's my birthday too, yeah!

 

And, hopefully, it will be a better one than last year.  Really, I don't think it could be worse!  I had to get up a 4 AM to go downtown and be a "room monitor" in the hallway of a hotel where my company was having a meeting.  I sat there all day long with no lunch, nothing to do.  I was completely miserable and lonely.  Then I came home and had a quick dinner and headed out for a meeting with the pastor - who told me he was leaving the church.

 

So far today, I came to work to find many e-cards and email wishes from my beloveds, a gift from a new friend, and plans to take me to lunch.  I haven't decided on what I am doing for dinner tonight yet but I have a feeling Carvel ice cream cake is in my future!
