Birthday Goodness

This year I opted for a quiet birthday. No party, no celebration, just sleeping in and having a nice day at home goofing off with my husband. I liked it a lot.

Thank you cards are being done tomorrow and mailed out Monday.

This years birthday booty was excellent. I received cards that made me laugh and a few birthday phone calls.

I got a crisp, clean, 50 dollar bill in one card. I LOVE it when I get crisp new money. Anyone can just stick a check or few bucks in a card. When someone takes the time to go down to the bank, wait in the line, and get you a fresh, clean, crisp bill that says something. Just that they would make the effort makes it extra special.

I also received a netbook! I have the Lenovo S10 http://shop.lenovo.com/us/notebooks/ideapad/s-series. It is super cool and I am really enjoying it. Such a tiny little computer it fits right in my tank bag.

At Chrsitmas I got a Wii and for my birthday my Mom got me the bundle with Guitar Hero III and a Les Paul guitar controller. We have spent most of the day playing Guitar Hero. It is seriously addicting!

The other thing I received I have been looking at for a long time. The Braun Silk-epil Xelle epilator. Epilation has come a long way since the human self torture device days of the epilady and I am ready to give it a try. This one even comes with beginner heads and stuff to make getting into it a bit easier.

This afternoon a friend came over with her kids and brought me the cutest little ice cream cake, a cool DVD, and a neat cat themed desk calendar.

Mark's Birthday

We had a BBQ with only a couple of friends. Seems like the older we get, the less we do for our birthdays. On the bright side, Mark has officially reached the age where people start buying him toys for his birthday again!
