Happy Birthday to ME!
Today is my 39th birthday.
I am at work today, and NO ONE KNOWS! Or, if they do, they haven't said anything. Hee!
Hubby and Munchkin are home sick. Poor babies! I have to call the pediatrician to see if he can fax me over a doctor's excuse for Munchkin. Since she's missed so much school this year, they informed me that if she misses any more days, she'll have to have a doctor's note for all of them. Grrr. Stupid school district.
I suppose I could send her to school, where she'll be miserable, cranky, and a general pain in the ass (she's SO much like me when she doesn't feel well), and let her infect the entire classroom.
Oh, wait. I did that yesterday. *snicker*
I'm such a bad mom!
Speaking of moms, I have to have lunch with mine today. She called me the other day from JC Penny, asking what size pants I wore. Inside, I groaned. I told her.
"Even on pants with elastic waistebands?" she asked. Oh, God, this is not going to be pretty.
"Yes mom, even with an elastic waisteband."
"Cause I'm looking at the prettiest pants-suit. You'll love it. The pants are a pomegranite color, and the shirt that goes with it is beige. And it has little pucca shells across the bottom. Now, do you want regular slacks, or those capri short pants?"
"Capris will be fine mom. Thanks."
So, I'm getting pink clothes for my birthday. Nothing has changed since I was 5. And the rockin' beige shirt. Should look good on someone twice my age.
Gotta love mom.
(btw - I'm sure the outfit isn't as bad as my visualization is making it out to be. However, I'll let you guys be the judge after I get it.)

Omigod. I would die if my mother tried to buy me a pants suit. Of course, since I don't wear pants, it's not likely. Okay, I would die if she tried to buy me a dress suit. Hmmm... isn't that the same thing?
I wear a certain style of skirt, though, that EVERYONE knows will work for me, no matter what. So they go with that, if at all.
Happy Birthday, You!
A belated Big Birthday Wish for you. You look pretty in Pink> Wasn't there a movie like that? I do wish you the best at 39...I am sorry the kids aren't feeling well. Mo just got back from the doctor's office herself...Don't you just love it?
Happy birthday! One day late.
So, next year when you tell us that you are 39 (again) we can point you back to this post????
Happy birthday!
Happy Birthday, girl!
I'd have no problem with my mom getting me clothes. They wouldn't be pink, for one, and she has really good taste in clothes...most of the time. ha ha Good luck with that. I can't wait to see pics.
Happy (belated) Birthday, Callie!!!
I hope your day was a wonderful one.
