Hmmmm---

39 random feelings/happenings/thoughts

1. I got the coolest freakin Montana Silversmith watch from my 3 delicious boys for my birthday! I love it so much--mentioned that I liked it at TS the other day and boom--it magically appeared for my special day! HOLLA

2. Ean, my aspiring chef fixed me the yummiest cake yesterday! It was a white cake with brownie on top w/ cream cheese icing! TO DIE FOR! I must say! Oh yeah, Evy helped!

3. Mom and Cary had us over for a fabuloooosoooo dinner! Her mac salad is the bomb--especially when the veggies in it are fresh from Cary's garden!

4. Instead of a cake, Mom fixed one of my faves--a PUNKIN PIE! Mr. Peyton doesn't like them, so I only get it when Mom fixes it for me! yummmm-ooooo

5. MawMaw called at 8:32am to wish me a happy bday. Needless to say, she left a message!

6. Kimmy came last nite to celebrate 39 years. She brought a squash casserole that was "off the chain" as she says. It had cream cheese and lemon zest in it! OMG!

7. Kimmy gave me a groovy photo collage she bought at the Farmers Market of Gordonsville! I love, love, love it! Now, where to put it????

8. The 1st thing Mr. Peyton said when he got up this morning was HAPPY BIRTHDAY, that's nothing new, but it's still so titillating to hear that after all these years!

9. Still half asleep, crawling into my bed this morning, Evy said Happy Birthday Mommy! ahhh

10. Mr. Peyton's card to me said: An Angel came to me one day --then you open it-- So I married her. I cried...

11. Dee called from Myrtle Beach to wish me a happy bday--today's her day too!

12. I called Dad around 1:00pm to check on him. He didn't remember it was my birthday. It hurt my heart.

13. Karen called and wished me a happy bday.

14. I haven't been to the mailbox--wonder if I have any cards????

15. Brooke called to say happy bday, even though I forgot hers! I love her!

16. Dad remembered my birthday.

17. I was hoping that the RS would bring Dad to see me on my birthday, but she didn't.

18. Oh, the RS (rodent squirrel) didn't say anything about my birthday. ugh...

19. JoAnne left a message on my cell (why?) to wish me a happy birthday.

20. My great-aunt Ginny called to wish me a "happy birthday on the table"! Ahh, LOVE IT! When I was itty, I guess maybe my 2nd b'day, when everybody came to celebrate, I was so excited because I was having a happy birthday on the table! --it was my cake! lol I love that even though Ginny is my great-aunt and she has an ailing husband, she called me today! Love her!

21. I started getting happy birthday wishes last night!

22. So very many of my wonderful and faithful Facebook buddies sent sweet wishes to me today!

23. Ro Chicken called and made me laugh today! She can always do that! She'll be home in 2 weeks and I can't wait!

24. Ro and I planned a Grey Gardens Emmy party--complete w/ pate', corn and my stuffed raccoon! HOLLA! fun, fun, fun! lol

25. Debbie helped to bring me out of my funk last nite! Her and Barry have a way of doing that!

26. I called to check on Dad this evening. Found out he was thinking his "bar buddies" were coming down to see him tonite. They didn't show. Guess that's why Squirrel didn't bother to bring him here.

27. I was sort-of hoping that Joy would send me an email or something about my birthday. I was sort-of certain that wouldn't happen. Still kinda wished.

28. Walking back into the house, after having dinner at Mom's, my house smelled scrumptious! Nothing makes me happier than my house smelling good!

29. Ean and I had a short, but kinda deep conversation about friends today. I'm amazed at how clearly he sees things for as young as he is.

32. Thank you Lord, for 39 wonderful years!

33. Thank you Lord, for Mr. Peyton. He is truly my soul-mate and best friend. I don't know what I did to deserve such a wonderful man, but please know that I DO NOT take it/him for granted!

34. Thank you Lord, for Ean Cole. He is such a dream child! Please protect him, Lord, from the harshness of this world. He's a gentle soul and I think may need a little extra protection.

35. Thank you Lord, for Evan Caine. He has brought so much joy to our lives. Please protect his wild spirit. It's one of his most endearing qualities!
