I am a little old white trash lady who has it made in the shade!
It's official. Happy Birthday to me!!!!!! Well,maybe I should do some explaining Lucy. I lost my glasses Saturday night, AGAIN. So I called up my friend and ask him to look at his house to see if I left them there, and he didn't see them. Now,I had just lost them last week on Wednesday, because the pin came out, but I found all the parts and took them back to Sam's and they fixed them. So today I'm thinking great, it's my birthday and I don't have any glasses anymore. But the good part was I renewed my drivers license and my motorcycle license on Friday, so what the heck.I had the glasses when I really needed them to pass the test. I didn't really need glasses to see anymore, right? (By the way, the picture turned out great on my license!) So my friend from last night and I met for breakfast for my birthday this morning and we decided to swing by his house one more time to look for my glasses. They were there laying in the grass with one stem missing. So we went back to Sam's and they gave me a new pair of frames right then and there, so I can see again. Yeah! The rest of the world is safe because I can see them when I drive. Yes, I really did need the glasses, I was just kidding before. I'm as blind as a bat. So then my friend ask me what I would like for my birthday. I could have anything I wanted within reason. I'm thinking hmmmmm...I already have a Rollscanhardly. I have a new staple gun. Gee, what more do I really need? I'm blessed with so much! Then it dawned on me. I asked him again, "I can have anything???" He said sure within reason.So I led him to the store and then to the department that I really wanted something from. Actually NEEDED is the true statement. I got...ready???..... a super duper heavy duty trash can for outside. A Rubbermaid at that. A BIG one! So then I wanted to climb inside and have him push me around the store and then I could jump out in front of people and yell "Happy Birthday to me!" But my friend didn't think that would be a good idea.I couldn't understand why, it had new tread on the tires. AND since my Rollscanhardly doesn't have air conditioning in it, he got me one of those sunscreens for the windshield of the car. Then we pass the eyeglass place in Wally World and he stops in there and starts looking for something. Have you guessed what it is he's looking for yet? You know those straps that little old ladies wear around their glasses because they keep losing them. Well, now you have the whole story. I am officially a 53 year old, white trash, old lady, who has it made in the shade!!!! Happy Birthday to me!!
Oh and then in the evening, another friend of mine grilled the biggest T-Bone steak I've ever seen in TX yet. I think this thing still had it's horns on it. His sweet neighbor bake me a strawberry cake for my birthday and he gave me a beautiful candle set. AND,AND,AND....(I'm so excited I could almost pee my pants)...he gave me tools!!!!!!! A level and a pair of vices.Sigh... well I just can't describe it in any other words. It just makes you want to bring a tear to your eye, now doesn't it!
I am so blessed with friends and family that know me so well and love me so much.
My older son called just as I walked in the door tonight to wish me a "Happy Birthday" This was about 9:15. Last year both of my boys forgot my birthday so they KNEW they had better call this year or they were going to be in big doodoo. So as soon as my older son hung up at 9:30, less than 1-1/2 minutes later, my younger son's son (my 3 year old grandson) called to wish me a "Happy Birthday". Boy talk about covering each other butts! Brothers stick together. And my daughter sent me a Hallmark e-card because she had tried to call me earlier, that said she wanted to hear all about my birthday here on my website. So there you go folks, I'm a blessed, loved ,old,white trash,full,lady who has it made in the shade on her birthday.
Oh PS, even my MOM called me. My birthday really was a good one cause she never calls long distance! See, told you I'm loved. Even my mom said so. So did my brother. And to my sister, too late, you told me that you already sent me the card, it's in the mail. So I know that you love me too!
If I could have a wish, I wish that everyone could have at least one birthday in their lives where they had so much fun and felt so much love. Thank you all for a very, very happy day.

Granny called?! And my dad called, too?! Wow! I knew we loved you ;)
OUR BROTHERS didn't call me on my birthday. Nor did our mother. Guess I'm on the SH T list. But you and I talked. Two nieces sent me MYSpace BD wishes. One sister-in law sent a text msg. I got flowers from one daughter and I have a surprise coming at 7:30 tongiht. Both daughters are coming to see ME for my birthday. Oh, and a few weeks ago, hubby bought some pearl and diamond earrings, plus, I ate a large piece of key lime and yogurt pie. And I ate lasagna. Who says we aren't well rounded sisters? pun intended.....love and food, makes everybody happy!!!!Kathy
Take your arms and spread them all the way out. Now take your arms are go all the way behind your back. That's how much I love you. PLUS I only send you Hallmark cards cause you only send the best for the best.
