Not much going on here...mostly lonely and boring without Jeff around! I really didn't want to celebrate my birthday this year...it's no fun without Jeff! But he made sure that I celebrated me...because as he told me, I deserve it! Saturday I went and got a pedicure and manicure with Shayna, one of the girls I work with. We had such a great time and were there for almost two hours...it was absolutely wonderful! It's amazing how pretty nails can make you feel good! After my pamper session, I went shopping to see if I could find anything to treat myself to. Normally, I can't find anything when I am really looking. But I got lucky! After a few hours, I left the mall with two new dresses, a couple of shirts and some sandals to show off my new pedi! After my shopping, I went to the house and got to have a "date" with my husband! Our "dates" are when we get to see each other on webcam and catch up. I have to say that the webcam has been my savior...even if I can't be with Jeff or have him here, at least I get to see his handsome smiling face...it makes things so much better! While I was talking to Jeff, my birthday gift showed up, so he made me open it while he got to watch. I have such a wonderful husband...he ordered me some Vera Bradley sunglasses...because he knew I would never spend the money on myself and since I wear sunglasses everyday, I should be reminded of him every time I put them on!
Sunday was my birthday dinner...Uncle Steve cooked me a steak, Aunt Lisa made cheesy potatoes and garlic bread! To top it off, Aunt Lisa also made me birthday pumpkin pies...which we didn't even get to eat til Monday since we were all so full!!! This was a wonderful way to end off a day laying by the pool. Life is wonderful here in Florida!
Monday was my birthday...the big 2-7! My day started off with my birthday note from Jeff. When he asked me what I wanted for my birthday, I told him for him to call and tell me he loved me and to write me a love letter. The letter came Friday and I had to look at it all weekend long! The first thing I did when the alarm went off was read it...which of course made me cry! I don't know how I got so lucky to find the greatest man in the world to spend my life with. I am so blessed and lucky...I love him so much. When I got to work, I had a card from everyone and some M&Ms waiting for me...they know the way to my heart! The day wasn't too bad considering it was a Monday and I had to be at work at 7am to process extra deposits from the Punta Gorda Block Party. The highlight of my day was receiving a beautiful bunch of flowers from my husband...he sure did outdo himself this year!
Thank you all so much for the wonderful birthday messages, calls and cards...it really helped to make my day special even though it wasn't complete without Jeff here. I am so blessed to have such wonderful family and friends to share my life with...so THANK YOU GUYS!!!
