Good morning everyone.I am getting ready to take the boys to school.It is my oldests birthday he is 12 today.We made 50 cupcakes and strawberry muffins for school and scouts today.I am having fully loaded regular.
QOD:How do you celebrate your birthdays?Anything special?I see Pam E's birthday is today.HAPPY BIRTHDAY!I hope you have a great one.I had a few adult drinks with a friend.Nothing special for me.Its just another day!

Hello everyone and Danielle!
Starting my pot of decaf and black, soon....
What a fun age-12. You are quite a mom baking all those cupcakes and muffins...
QOTD-Usually very low key birthdays. Now that the kids are grown, it's usually cake and dinner out. I like dinner with the family for my birthday. My birthday is in January, so the weather is mostly pretty crummy. Always wanted a summer birthday so I could have a picnic outside. Oh well

Since I'm late for work I'm going to reply to both Danielle and Jimi in one post!
All these September birthdays!  My youngest son's is tomorrow.  He is flying in to Florida so Grandma and Granpa can take him to Disney for free.  (Free admission to one park on your actual birthday).  He's pretty excited.  I'm nervous, as always.

Today is D-day.  My sister is coming to clean the house.  I am so over it already.  From now on, I'm paying someone I don't know to come in.  That way I won't care what they think of my house and what's in it.  I'm going to be stressed at work again today.  Aren't you glad you don't work with me?

QOTD-I am a big birthday celebrater for other people.  I decorate the house for the guys, and always get a cake and they get to choose whatever dinner they want.  This year we got my youngest his ticket to Florida as his gift.  Next year he'll be 16, so I'm sure he will get something car related!

Hope you all have a good day!

Beautiful day again here in Michigan.  I hope this designates what kind of winter we will have!  Only one more box out of the five to empty now and it's the one that's supposed to fit somehow into the pantry.  Maybe I'll try, maybe not.  I'm bound and determined to get the huge bin of shoes and purses put away into my closet today tho.,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY PAM.  My birthdays are nothing special anymore.  In fact, this year hubby left for up north here with a load of boxes, so I spent the day with a girlfriend going to the show and getting a mani and pedi.  That's the most fun I've had on my birthday in a long time.  Usually it's eating....  This year for hubby's birthday I'll be in PA at a dog show.  At least I'll get him a card!
Enjoy this beautiful weather everyone, don't know how long it'll last.
Jody, you can't believe what you're missing up here.  Phenominal weather!!!

Jan - yes, I heard you guys had fabulous weather while I was gone - it figures - lol.  Looks like summer finally decided to show up!

I'm back now for a few days before heading to Minneapolis.  Hopefully the weather will hold here, and there.  You busy for lunch today?  I've got the day off, will have some errands to run and would love to meet you before taking off for the next 3 months for work.

I'll answer the QOTD here now :  Birthdays?  I always made a big deal for the kids, but mine are usually uneventful.  Was just a regular day with going out for dinner to celebrate.  This year, my daughter and I took a week vacation to Florida - that was the biggest birthday celebration I've had in years. 

My son's in=laws are camping in Petoskey and called this morning to see if they could stop by around noon or 1:00.  Too bad...  We'll get together sooner or later, I'm not going anywhere for a long time.  In fact, I don't ever plan on moving again.
Hope Minne doesn't get too cold too fast this fall.
Jan

Good Morning everyone!

I've had a glass of water and then some carbmaster mixed with cottage cheese for breakfast.  Will wait a bit and then have some protien coffee. 

QOTD:  When the kids were little, I used to have parties for them.  Now, I usually take them out to dinner on for their birthday and bake them a cake.  For my birthday it's usually cards from the kids and Steve and I go out to dinner

Have a great day everyone!

Good morning    I'M  drinking water this am.  Its all I have in the house I will drink.  I think I need to go to the store.    Bitty Boots and I are going for  walk in the woods behind us today to find a pretty leaf for her grandma who got permission to visit.  I don't like the idea because I believe she enabled  the evil grandpa to abuse the little one but without proof  I have to abide by the court decision.   For now. 
QOTD  We go out for dinner on birthdays.    One of 3 days we choose where we want and don't worry about cost. 
Have a great day everyone.  Looks like a pretty one out there!!

Today is Tuesday, 

Well great Tuesday everyone.

Nothing new here.
Happy Birthday PamT E and to your oldest Danielle, and to Brenda son. And to all those I don't know about.

QOTD: I don't do much special on my Birthday. I usually play it low key. Haven't had a celebration in many years. Maybe by my January 18Th B-day I will be celebrating my new birthday of weight loss surgery.

Good morning all!

I was late this morning.  I slept too late and my hair just would not cooperate and I took the time to iron a shirt but after putting it on figured out it was too small, so had to iron another shirt.  Why oh why don't I plan better? 

But.... I had my new protein drink concoction on the way to work this morning and all was right with the world again.  Seriously you guys - you MUST try this. Caramel Apple Protein Cider.  Yum!

QOTD -- My birthday is on Valentine's Day.  Being single I don't have a sweetheart to spend V Day with ... and now that I think about it, never actually having a boyfriend ON that day in my life - how sad .... my birthday is usually spent alone or with my family.  For years my parents would take me out to dinner on my birthday.  But several years ago I put my foot down and told them that they should go out on Valentine's Day themselves.  So usually I have my birthday dinner with them another day of the week.  Otherwise it's pretty  uneventful.
