My Sort Of Birthday

What a fantastic (sort of) birthday. The sun was shining, the air was warm, and I got to spend the day with my favorite person- my husband Ted. After breakfast Ted and I went to La Purisima Mission and fed the animals. Once we got home I opened my birthday present, a car kit (complete with jumper cables) which is exactly what I wanted. After a quick workout we went to see Shutter Island. A great day all around. It's hard to believe another year has come and gone.

New Pajamas

I bought myself these pajamas for my birthday. I saw them in the gift shop at the Chumash Casino spa this afternoon after my massage and foot reflexology appointments (a glorious birthday gift from Ted). I normally don't browse gift shops and it's even less frequent that I purchase something from a gift shop but the color and pattern of these pajamas jumped out at me and I figured tomorrow is my sort of birthday so why not?

Pre-Birthday Festivities

My birthday festivities began today with a decorated office (courtesy of Sharon and Peggy), a birthday cake (courtesy of Dan), several cards and a gift (courtesy of Kitty, Sharon, and Peggy). It got even more festive when I got home and opened a card from my good friends Carolyn, Vince and their daughter Ilaria. What a fantastic way to start off a birthday weekend. Thank you everyone!

G.I. Joe: The Rise Of Cobra

Ted and I watched G.I.Joe: The Rise of Cobra this evening. It was pretty bad. Of course I only made it through the first 30 minutes of the movie before falling asleep but let me tell you those 30 minutes were bad.

Secret Message

Ted found this message I left for him, several weeks ago, on the white board in his office today. He took a picture and emailed it to me.
