Yesterday was my birthday....


and I am now 46 years old.

WOW.

46.

This is me with no make up, but with hair color. I am 100% grey. Have been now for 10 years.....and although I am ok with getting older...I am NOT OK with me having grey hair. My coloring is all wrong for grey hair.

My husband took the day off from work to spend it with me yesterday. We just hung out. Did a little shopping. Spent some time together. I threw my diet out the window and ate birthday donuts, dairy queen and pizza for dinner. A lot of pizza...all washed down with a pims and ginger ale. Bad for me yes, but oh so good.

But today...it's back to fiber cereal and laundry.

Oh, and that damn groundhog saw it's shadow.  But, since it was 50 degrees for the past two days....6 more weeks of winter seemed likely anyway. It's been mostly spring like this season- except for about 5 days....and that's just not right for Michigan. Yes, I know all about the jet stream and WHY we're warm. But still...it's just not right.

Have a great day!

PS
I got my office done...on a budget of 5 bucks. Yep. 5 bucks. More about it tomorrow.

thanks! I just got done eating leftover birthday pizza for lunch, watching my (guilty pleasure) birthday movie "Reign of Fire", and looking at my birthday irises. It's been another good morning!
