birthday...

I love birthday's for many reasons - but one thing that I love is that you are so reminded by how much you are loved....all the phone calls, texts, emails, and even all those people who are your facebook friends that you don't see very often...or ever...all wishing you a happy birthday and sending good thoughts your way. I LOVE THAT. now, yes, it totally allowed me to be interrupted at work all day...but it was worth it!!!

It was a wonderful day.....one of my fabulous co-workers JD had seen on my blog how much I LOVED flowers and decided I needed some to grace my desk.....they are SO beautiful and I am SO VERY THANKFUL for her! They were just what I needed!!! And they will definitely get me through the rest of the week!!!

And then there were these....

We all know I have a sweet tooth - and Crave cupcakes, well, we had to have them. Although we didn't finish - we have a tendency at work to have a knife and cut in 4ths and just share....I'm pretty sure there are tons left at my desk for me to eat today. Although, yesterday after smelling them for so many hours they almost made me sick -- just so sweet!!!!

And then there is my door...got to love my sweet co-workers for writing happy birthday for everyone to know! The best part was my bosses boss came by and laughed and said I have a birthday present for you -- you get to keep your job. (which was really funny only because of what has been happening at work...no worries, trust me).

And then I did what I really wanted to do - I came home, ordered pizza and watched TV and talked to lots of friends. It was exactly what I needed with everything going on. Tonight is another b-day party (we are trying to see how many people I can meet up with for my birthday and tonight is just one of the many b-day parties) and then Friday we have a work party and Saturday is Halloween (yahoo!) and then Sunday is another party with the girls (and hubbies) at La Vista. I can't wait - we get to celebrate PR's b-day too that night!!!

So, it was a fabulous birthday - thanks to everyone for all the good wishes! You guys are the best!
