FABULOUS!

I had alot of "fabulousness" going on lately! Fabulous birthday: complete with shopping, lunch and a beautful cake made by friends. A bunch of nice gifts from my hubby and kids as well as pampering. My hubby even took the day off! I got to go out the following Wednesday and shop at some out of town shops~~~hubby had another day off! It was FUN! I am thinking I like these "ME" days alot! I get kind of blue thinking about my kids getting to be adults but when I come home to a clean house and can just enjoy them I realize that even though they are growing they are turning out to be exactly what we tried so hard to raise them to be...hard workng, productive members of society. I love my famiy and I am looking forward to some of the positive changes that we are hoping will take place real soon!

Good times...........

My birthday was awesome! We went to some of the little shops that I love so much. It was so much fun! We ate lunch with friends. The cake was beautiful and the food was yummy! I got alot of nice birthday things. My sock collection is growing~~~thanks to my Abigail! I was so thankful for some good sleep. After 2 nights of barely 4 hours I was exhausted! I am going to post some pictures pretty soon. I can't do it at work anymore because for some reason the computer doesn't recognize my cable. Weird. I was posting right along on FB then one day I tried to load some and it won't let me. :(

Hello, blogger world!

It seems like I have something going on all the time but nothing to post about! I guess I could be like some people and post every detail of my life! I have been doing some redecorating and some card making with my "Cricut." I love that thing alot!!! It is so much fun and every cartridge has so much to do. I am going to make some stencils for my hubby real soon so he can make me some signs. I redid a sconce and it looks passable. LOL! It turned out like I was hoping it would so I guess that is what matters. Hubby got my shelf done~~~it is painted,"federal blue." I like it! He has the wood cut out for the cupboard/cabinet he is making for the kitchen. I can't wait to have that done! Let me see....I am planning to takea day off real soon. That's about it in the Gates' world. Besided the fact the whole family is employed!
