My whole family forgot it was my birthday.
When I woke up this morning and opened my eyes, my husband Dave was right there, greeting me with the words "Happy Birthday Baby!"
It was particularly meaningful due to the fact it seemed as if he were just waiting for me to open my eyes so he could speak those words to me. It was very very nice and a great way to start my day!
Just a few minutes later as I was getting up my girlfriend Gayla called from southern Ca. with the same birthday wish. It too was so nice.
When I had my eyes opened up enough to read the written word, I checked my e-mail. In that was a whole lot more birthday wishes for me from a friend I just met this past year. Many humorous , some charming and some down right heart tugging. I posted a bunch of them here and some more of them on my "A Daily Laugh" blog.

About late morning one of my sons saw I had my chat line opened and so he "chatted" with me. The usual stuff we talk about on an almost daily basis.
Then early afternoon the son that lives here in this town where I live called. He called to tell me that his son (my grandson Jeremiah) was going to be visiting his mom (who lives 2 doors down from me) if I wanted to visit. Which of course I did and I did. We took some pictures etc.
The day wore on, my brother-in-law called in the late afternoon and he wished me a happy birthday. I then received one more call a few minutes ago from the mother of Jeremiahs mom, Cheryl. I am now going to bed, the day over, although I had a very nice day, nothing to complain about. The weather was great, I saw my grandson etc, The only complaint EVERYBODY in my family forgot my birthday.
I have 4 sons, and although I "chatted" with one, and talked on the phone with the other, neither one of them remembered.
All my life I have always had my birthday forgotton. For some reason everybody always thinks its December 31st. And in my whole life I have never had ALL of my boys remember it.usually I score two for two. 2 that remember the right date and 2 that do not (I always get happy birthday phone calls on December 31st)
But I have NEVER been forgotton by every single person in my family before.
This was a first and it hurt. It stings real bad!
But I know in the morning the phone will ring and the yearly discussion on "I thought it was the 31st, MOM conversation will come once again." My father has never forgot either and I doubt if he did this year but he is in a hospital and unable to call, so he of course is forgiven. LOL!!!
Sure doesn't make me sound very loved does it?
I am so thankful to my friends for today could have and would have been very very, sad. Soooo until next year when once again my family doesn't remember the real birth date, I will lay myself down to sleep tonight knowing I still have friends!!!
and thankful that God gave me a sense of humor where I am able and capable of just laughing this off
(until next year)
LOL!!!
(until next year)
LOL!!!
A little bit of Yesterday!
Just a little bit of Yesterday and Andy's birthday. Andrew Robert was born on December 20th 2006 and being a "Christmas Baby " myself I think it was smart on the parents part to throw a birthday party at the beginning of December. LOL!!!
Andy is a little Train nut and his birthday was train themed.
Here is his cake,
Andy is a little Train nut and his birthday was train themed.
Here is his cake,
Here he is with "Granny" with her eyes closed, and with a two year old , one should never have there eye's closed. He was not all that intent on sitting in my lap with all of the good stuff going on around him!
My little Conductor!
These were just a few of his "friends" that came and enjoyed the festivities!
And here he is with his immediate family. On the left is my first born son Eric holding his first born (and the first girl in the family since I was born) Katy Ann. Along side is the birthday boy Andy, Two (2) on Decmber 20th being hugged (and held) by his mother Cindy!
I know what your parents were doing
If today is your birthday, I pretty much know what your parents were doing on New Years Eve. Yep, that's right! If you don't get too technical, like the length of a woman's menstrual cycle, or when in the cycle she is, for all intents and purposes if you conceive on January 1st your due date will be on October 5th.
A very, very, dear friend of mine Art who is no longer amongst the living, told me this story many many years ago (as it was/is his birth date)and it is just one of those things I never forgot. Well now that I am learning the computer I Googled it this morning when my calendar showed me that today was October 5th. There were a lot of results to this search, and all came from being very technical, as written in my post summary.
But you know what? I don't want to be all technical about it, I just want to pass on a story from a friend of mine. It is my story and I am sticking with it. So if today is your Birthday, Happy Birthday, AND I know what your parents were doing on New Years Eve one year!

1921 was a good year for me!
Today is a very special day in my family. My Daddy and his birthday. Born in 1921, my father is a young 87 years old today!
This was taken last year in my daddy's atrium. This is the house I grew up in from the time I was 16 months old until I moved out . This "atrium" is right smack in the middle of my dad's house. The glass sliding door that you see behind him( flirting with my girlfriend Cindy) goes to his bedroom. There are another 2 in that atrium also.
It is a beautiful spot. And while it is nothing more than a 3 bedroom house, pretty much like all the others (middle class) made in those days, my daddy always said, If I wanted a 3 bedroom house I could have bought anywhere. But if I wanted a 3 bedroom house with an atrium in the middle of it, My option was right here, meaning in La Mirada California. A town that was nothing but orange groves all around when they purchased this house.
Behind him in this picture is another of the 3 glass sliding doors that are in that atrium, and this one goes down the hallway. This was taken last year when he met my new puppy "Buick" for the first time. They became fast friends. My mother died in May of 1990, and had she lived just another 7 months they would have had their 50th wedding anniversary. I have 2 older brothers, by 8 and 10 years. I was born to them a little later in their life. My Daddy never remarried and as I said before still lives in the same house.
HAPPY 87th BIRTHDAY, DADDY!!!
Just a note, It is always fascinating to me to hear his stories of growing up. He was dirt poor and never lived in a house with a bathroom until after he met and married my mother. It never ceases to amaze me just how much this world has changed in less than 100 years.
WOW!!!
Playing Chicken
This is my son. this is what my son did on his wifes birthday! They go to their local target store and play chicken. Kinda brings a whole new meaning to playing chicken Huh?
And I can only guess that this is when D.I.L. told the chicken he was not a Foster Farms chicken and he goes away in shame.
Thanks to D.I.L. for allowing me to publicly embarrass my son.
