Best Surprise Ever!

Okay, so yesterday was my birthday and we will not mention just how old I am. Let's say over 50 but not yet 60. Anyway this is how my day went....early, early yesterday I took Dana to the airport (4:45 UGH!). He's in New Orleans at a convention so I'm Home Alone, well not exactly all alone cause Toby the fearsome watch dog is with me. I decided way before Dana went away that while he was gone I would catch up on around the house type projects. So this is what I accomplished on my birthday---since I arrived back home from the airport before the chickens were even up and I didn't feel sleepy I started a new book and worked a crossword puzzle. Then I got busy, I talked to Sage and Amber and Jake and Dana, all wishing me a Happy Birthday! After my happy conversations I headed out to the garage and painted a new baseboard for the living room and since I had the paint out I painted all the baseboards in the dining room and the master bathroom...I cleaned the plantation shutters in the dining room and my bedroom and the wood blinds in the other bedrooms, changed the sheets on the bed and cleaned the bathrooms. Oh, and did I mention moved some furniture from the living room out to the garage hopefully to be replaced with something new. I was then saved with a call from Sage letting me know that they we would pick me up at about 4:00 PM to do some errands and then go to dinner. Yahooo, work is finished for the day! Sooo, Sage and Jer pick me up and off we go---when I asked where we were going they said "Oh it's a Surprise!" Yep! they surprised me alright, the took me to P.F. Changs at the Irvine Spectrum and better than that Amber, Ben, Jake and Ella were there to surprise me for my birthday. It just doesn't get any better than that! Thank You Sage, Jer, Amber, Ben, Jake and Ella for the best Birthday ever.
