Birthday MONTH: Day 14

Oooooh do you remember these??? These were the 7 Birthday gifts that my sister Karen mailed to me. For those of you who have been following along during my Birthday MONTH, we've already opened two so far. For those of you just tuning in, you can read about the them here and here if you'd like.

Before we open #3, I just want to thank those of you who have been following my Birthday MONTH party!!! Each comment is a gift in itself!!!! Thank you! :) (and you all know how I love me some gifts! ;)

Ok! It's time to open gift #3!!! She labeled this gift "Keep Track"

Hmmm. "Keep Track"...I wonder what it could be. I wish it would be my own personal male sexytary secretary but the bag sort of seems small, don't you think? (my fingers are crossed anyway)

Look at this beautiful card...

I wonder if this lady is dreaming of the man who sent her all of those love letters??? And is he the same man who sent her those roses??? Maybe she has multiple men...if so, lucky her for keeping track of all of them. {My imagination runs wild at times...I am such a hopeless romantic. Hopeless I tell you! }

Let's peek in the bag. Poot! No male sexytary secretary in the bag but this is a sure shot of me keeping track of my THREE LIVES on my own...

This is the coolest little note pad! Open the cover and there are 3 separate pads to jot down everything I need to do for the day! It's amazing that with each year I age, I am going through note papers and pads by the dozens. If I don't write it down, it doesn't get done. Am I the only one? Obviously not if someone is actually making a profit on this awesome 3-way pad!!!! ;)

I guess this is one of the quirks of turning a year older. Why didn't anybody warn me that the older I get, the wider my tummy gets, the smaller my brain gets and most of all, hair grows in places where it shouldn't and doesn't grow where it should? Nope, nobody ever warned me of that. Am I the only one? Obviously not if someone is actually making a profit on abdominal machines, ginko biloba, nair and rogaine!!!! ;)

I'm turning 40 next year. Hubs said he'll trade me in for two twenties.  Get it? Two twenty year olds? At first I was offended but since then, my brain has shrunk some more and I have no worries. I'll just take that as a compliment as it'll take TWO girls to take the place of this Queen of Everything!!! 

I want to wish Mindy @ Primitiques 'n Poetry a wonderful HAPPY BIRTHDAY today!!! Mindy is hilarious and loves her birthdays as much as I do. When she turned 40, she had a party to celebrate EVERY month during that year! How cool is that?

Next year when I turn 40, I just might have to do that too. Not for the fact that I'm turning 40, but for the fact that Hubs will NOT know what to do with his two twenties! ;)

Hey, it's Wednesday today (I had to look at the calendar), the weekend is almost here! yay!
