well happy birthday to jordan, jared, jaden, billy and ME I thought about you all but did not come to mind when i blogged. i love all of you. as for my day, i turned 47 thank you jacob who asked if i was 43. i got my hair cut, went shopping for a hammock , i wanted one for a couple years and refused to get it, this year the yearning is not disapating, so with moms birthday money i will have to pay just over 100 dollars but i cant get it until grandpas truck gets back to delaware clay has had it for a couple weeks. it is a quilted hammock NO ROPE,i decided to go to bj's and not lowes. then i came home for 1/2 hour and talked with barb, thank you barb for letting katlyn talk with me it was soo sweet. then out to dinner at grotto pizza, i heard them clapping in the kitchen, i thought someone did something stupid in the kitchen, i heard it a couple times, then they come out doing the same thing with a balloon then did a happy birthday song with some words i couldnt understand but they did mention grotto pizza in the song. then to moms for cake and icecream and gifts. i was full, happy and content, had a hot soaking bath and was asleep by 10. aunt jackie sent me a m&m puzzle, the picture is a round bowl of m&M pieces, 500 in all. thank you aunt jackie. pattys gift didnt show up great in the pictures but it was a plate (white) with a wire holder saying give us this day our daily bread. the pj's came from nora. we are getting a lot of rain. barney asked and asked and asked to go out and she backed down every time this morning then i finally caught her in the litter pan. so i know she can stay in as long as necc and she will not go on the floor. GOOD GIRL BARNEY, i guess i spoiled her now that she is used to the house. gotta go i forgot, i ALMOST got my red rose from dad yesterday, i think i will count that it would have been perfect timing, i miss those single red roses on my birthdays.
