My Birthday

Yesterday was my birthday and like it or not I am another year older. I don't mind. Really. I don't. Being that my Birthday fell on a Monday I didn't celebrate it. Instead I worked on Monday Morning from 0001 to 0630 and came home slept until the early afternoon. I had 5 hours and 1/2 sleep and kept my self awake until 2130. So as you can see my Birthday was a drawn out affair. I was tired and cranky and demanding from my family that all I want for my birthday was that 5 and 1/5 hours of sleep so I can recoup from a night shift and get my days back to normal. And it worked. Today I am not so cranky and not so tired and I got up a decent hour in the early morning. Yahoo. (Just to be called into work too work another night shift tonight. Tonight I work by my self and get a full 8 hours!)

But my family was sweet about my Birthday. My husband gave me 24 Red Roses and bragged about having to drive out his way to Costco to buy them. My son gave me the 5 and 1/2 hours sleep so he was off the hook for making me a card. My daughter and the babysitter baked me a Black Barry pie (all the Barries hand piked with loving care and turned into a master piece) I haven't tried it yet, but I am sure it is good.

Now, as for my other family members out there and you know who you are. I got 3 bottles of home made wine - yummy. (I can't wait to have a bottle Friday night) I got tealite holder's (perfect for the many power outages that are destand to happen this winter) An inflatable Tolit as a Joke for a post I did awhile ago regarding the city of Victoria "potty problem." All and all it was a good Birthday.

Maybe this Friday I will get a babysitter and bring the "potty" with me to local watering hole and use it as a chair for laughs - that would be fun)
