Happy Birthday to Me!


Yes. It's sad but true, I am now 47 years old. ugh. Slipping and sliding with increasing swiftness to 50. I spent my birthday in Maine, in my camper, in the pouring rain. Brooke has to work all weekend. Gary has to work all weekend. I spent my birthday night alone (Brooke went to the movies). So when there is no birthday cake being presented to me, I have no other choice than to microwave a Schwans brownie and load the top with Cool Whip. At least Louie spent the night with me, indulging in Cool Whip but no brownie. That's one good thing about dog's not being able to eat chocolate, I don't feel obligated to share!
Wednesday night we celebrated with Nicole and Eric, my birthday and her birthday. Gary and Brooke bought me a Wii!! and the Wii Fit along with it. I tried it out Thursday for an hour, it sure makes exercising a lot more fun. I still have 3 pounds to go to reach my 5 by Fair time, I am not too hopeful about that, and I have a lump of brownie and cool whip in my gut to back that up.
Thursday night we all went to my parent's house and celebrated their 50th anniversary with pizza and cake. Yes I know, sounds cheap right? But we gave them a big party a few years back, as my mother was afraid that her arthritis would be a lot worse by now and she wouldn't be able to dance. Turns out she has a whole new knee and probably could have boogied the Electric Slide no problem. I do have pictures of all these fun events and of course more pictures of Kali, but being the airhead that I am, I brought my camera up to Maine with me to download my pictures and put them on here, but not the cord to do it. duh. So they will be posted after this weekend. Now, I am going to critique the two movies I watched today.
