Unfortunately the “something” isn’t very close to the 40, but it’s not TOO close to the 50.  That’s all I’m saying.

I’m a Christmas baby, born 1 week before Christmas Eve.  I used to hate it…especially when I was in college and had to study/take finals around my birthday.  Yuck!

And, it’s been a while since anyone was guilty of combining birthday and Christmas presents (gasp)…Randy learned long ago that doesn’t fly with me.  I mean, c’mon…

I got to choose my birthday dinner destination, as is usual with us.  Ever heard of the place with the huge porch and lots of rocking chairs in front?  Half shopping / half down-home, southern comfort food?  Yep, that’s where we went.

Afterwards, we made a stop at Wal-*art.  This, in itself, is crazy, since I truly despise the place.  But, stop we did and made a few purchases….vowing to never go again.  Like I always do.

Back home, and it was present time…

New winter coat!

Gloves that work with my touch-pad Iphone :)

Beautiful black cardigan sweater

A picture, just for me!

A goofy boy to look at.

Marley has in mind what she wants to get me, and Randy has taken her to two different places with no luck.  So, I’m still waitin’ on that one!

I’m one blessed mama…

And, a happy birthday girl.
