Yep, I'm the birthday girl today............36 WOW where did that time go.
I woke up this morning and went and had a shower, got dressed blah blah blah (the usual) and I try and get a quick coffee in before I go (which I did this morning). I usually leave before any of the boys open their eyes so didn't expect any birthday wishes before I left but my thoughtful husband has left the boys present and card on the bench for me in the kitchen.
He had gone out to The Warehouse and bought a canvas and some paints and got the boys to paint one side each of it.................well being the big sook I am, I started crying (I'm doing it again now thinking about it...SOOK!) because we don't have a huge amount of disposable cash at the moment and I told Andrew NOT TO BUY A PRESENT for me but this was better than any birthday present I could have ever gotten. Plus to top it all off, Reece (4 year old) had written the card himself!!!!!!! I have been really trying to help him with his writing lately because he is so keen and this was awesome to see because I know he would have been really proud of himself for doing it (rrrrrrrr my boys are growing up *tear*).
I got some lovely perfume from my sister, a bath bomb, soap and draw liners from the lady at work and a Warehouse card from Dad......plus a box of chocolates from the company I work for (which are on my desk for whoever walks in to the Lab today).
I think I am going out for lunch with a workmate (still haven't confirmed) and tonight I am off to the Cossie Club (I am a member) to get my $10.00 birthday credit on my card.....hehehehe.
Not a great deal planned for the weekend, Workingmen's club tomorrow night for a farewell dinner for my neice who is moving to Auckland and that's about it.
I am hoping the weather will clear a wee bit so I can take the boys to the park or something as they have been stuck indoors for ages and there are only so many DVD's and board games I can put up with.
OK, I've stopped blubbering now so I will go and do some work..............bye
