birthdays mean nothing anymore



happy saturday folks---

wusshappenin in your world?

not lot here in mine.

it's cold. i got up too early for a saturday. i've had a headache for four days straight. and soulmans birthday plans went out the window last night. yep. i must say-- that was prolly the most un-happenin birthday either of us have had since we've met. even in our poorest of days we found ways to make somethin happen, or do somethin on birthdays etc. well, last night, we made plans to go to a nice dinner... but number one-- we were over hungry-- which makes me mean... and him too, just not as bad. then when we got to the place we were goin there was a line out the door. NOT. we decided he didn't wanna deal with the crowd, and me with my headache , didn't wanna deal with the noise of a saturday night out. we ended up at whataburger drive thru ! woo hoo!!
"happy birthday honey! enjoy your dinner, by the way--- i didn't have a chance to buy you a gift."

OR-- bake a cake-- but if i did --- i found the perfect one :))



ugh.
is this what it's like as the years roll by in a marriage??? it really does seem that every year things like this get less significant. gifts have changed dramatically in price and significance. and it really doesnt matter to either of us. gotta be a sign of age. or something.



well, life is great, then ya get old and bitchy.
good thing love doesn't care.
:))

happy saturday peeps!

ps--- soulman does say thanks to all who sent happy birthdays!

UGH! Take a nap for me . OK.

As usual, I'm a day late and a dollar short.

Happy belated birthday, Soulman. It may have been a burger evening but you are a winner Soul's eyes. Love makes it all OK, doesn't it?

Soul, I'm so glad that you are able to be up and about. Hope you all have a good Thanksgiving. There's so much to be thankful for.

Happy belated Birthday Mr. SOul!

Tweet soul, I betcha someday you'll remember this burger birthday and look up at him with twinkles in your eyes filled with love and humor for how simple his birthday was in 08 and how it was perfect!-sans headache.

Hope you're headache feels better...

Do I have to come down there and shake you?!

Soulman, and all of us got a present when you got BETTER!

Keep it up or I'll come kick your ass.

Love you.

I love that cake.

When you pile all the docs in one pile, what is their collective opinion? How's your pain?

Happy belated birthday Soul-man. Soul, I'm sure he understands just like you would understand if it was reversed. Sure hope you are feeling better as each day progresses and also hope you get some good medical news before the holiday so you can at least relax and enjoy a good meal....like PIG out! I'm cookin' again but this time my daughter says she's gonna help....so that will be good. Keep smilin'.

smocha—I did take a nap--- did you?
It was all I could do to escape the headache for a while. I accomplished nada yesterday. Just wallowed in self pity, and slothfulness . ugh. Today I must work around here.

better late than never mary—
I’m so dreading thanksgiving. I suggested we go out somewhere-=- and soulkid had a spazzfit.
So here comes all the shopping, cooking cleaning…. Just not my cuppa tea--- but yes , there is a lot to be thankful for.
This has been a tough year for a lot of us in blog land , but we’ve all got thru our struggles, whatever they be. Maybe that makes cookin a turkey worth it.
Or not )
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
CRUSTY---
My headache is gone—even so—I am worried about you today, and ben of course—let me know whats goin on ok.
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Wow brad--- you’re scary )
Nosir…it’s all good
Hugs )

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
ac--- happy Sunday
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

summer—I’m gonna make that cake next year—or close to it! )
I don’t have a collective opinion… I have a LIST… want me to email it to you? I have like 8 or 9 different diagnoses. So far.
As for pain--- the post embolism pain is all done with.. thank GOD.
Now it’s the normal, neck , back, head, fybro, sometimes leg, you know the all over kind—just not the kind that makes me cry or moan. (everyday) . I can live with this. And maybe even fish—soon.
How’s yours..your knee???

Hi charlotte—
Glad your daughter will be helping with the cookin and hopefully cleanin--- I’m sure her bein there will be the best part tho.
I hope you have a great t-day!!

As far as any new news— I am hoping for that tomorrow—the thyroid results etc. ya know I actually had forgot about that. ) I told ya my brain was fried. I’ve been out of pain pills for almost a week too—so I can’t blame them. I did go thru a staggering amount in just over a month though. Maybe in a couple weeks I’ll notice a difference.
Anyhow—when I hear something, I will let ya know.

Yankee—
You got that right…
I really don’t know where I’d be without my soulman. Well, I sorta do. But don’t wanna go there. But I have said before I’d rather live in a cave with him, than anywhere else without him.
)

anon/smocha-

Now I really need to get UP- and clean something. Ugh. I don’t wanna. Come clean for meeeeeeeee.
That’s what you can get me for Christmas—a maid gift certificate LOL.
