First of all, I have to say:
Happy Birthday to me,
Happy Birthday to me,
Happy Birthday dear me…
Happy Birthday to me!
Yesterday was like an early birthday present. I had fun being lazy at home. I also got some chores done.
I did the laundry:
I cleaned the fish tank:
And I went shopping:
The new shower curtains are because for my up-coming visit from family, the soap pump is for the kitchen sink, the food is for a salad I made last night, the heater is also for my family’s visit, the tablecloth is because I still have poinsettias on my dining room table, the cat litter is for… well, you know, and the lighters are for all-purpose burning.
Happy Birthday, Old Man! We bought you something funny, but in keeping with tradition, will not get around to sending it until it’s too late. Maybe I’ll send you a picture! (Cruel, cold laugh)
What did you umake with the chicken, tomatoes and cheese? Something roasted over the space heater?
I tried to copy a salad I get at an Italian restaurant. It’s balsamic dressing, fresh mozzarella chunks, grape tomatoes, and chicken. Very tasty and very filling.
I think you should make a seperate ‘Salad’ category and post pictures of each new salad you create!
I 2nd that motion! The yehs have it!
Duel fisted burning! Now that’s a birthday present. Why don’t we consider that my birthday present to you. I’ll send you some cash to cover it later. Don’t worry, I’m good for it.
The lighters were $57.95. They’re special lighters. Thanks for the gift! I’ll expect the check some time next week then?
I didn’t know you got THOSE lighters. I looked at them, but didn’t think I would produce enough fuel. I would have recognized them if you would have included the methane diverter/hose in the picture (not in use, please).
So…buying another space heater means you won’t be turning on the real heat, even when we get there?
Oh, and Happy Birthday! We sent cards. They may be late…let’s just say we’re helping extend the celebration into tomorrow and perhaps the weekend!
We’ll see what the weather’s like when you’re here. The heaters do an amazingly good job of heating the house. Unless it’s 8 degrees outside.
I probably should fire up the ol’ boiler at least once this winter anyway. I wouldn’t want it rusting up on me or anything.
This post reminds me of a Sesame Street book I used to read to my kids called “I Can Do It Myself”. I tied my shoe. I drank my juice. I buttoned my buttons. I can do it myself. I did the laudry, I cleaned the fish tank, I went shopping. I can do it myself. Way to go
!
I wanted to wish you luck tomorrow, but I couldn’t find you at the end of the day, so “Good Luck”! I’m sure it won’t hurt …… much.
And Michele said she’s picking you up tomorrow … any chance I can follow her & sneak a peak at Ned … the real live version.
Is lumpy getting removed tomorrow? What? How come we don’t know these details?
Whoops. Sorry – I just re-read the other post. Good luck!
You mean to tell me, Peggy, that you haven’t met Ned? Nedly Nude Ned, Naked Ned? Unbelievable. Never mind what Brad says, YES, you’re free to follow Michele and meet Ned. In fact, you must.
Happy Birthday, Brad! I almost missed sending you my wishes, but with 1 hour and 5 minutes to spare, I made it! Looks like you had a good pre-birthday day. Hope your actual birthday was even better. Good luck tomorrow!
