Fifiy. Five zero. 50. That's ME

Happy Birthday to me! Yep, I turned 30 today and it turned out to be an awesome day. About 8 am I got a call from Ms. B singing so wonderfully the happy birthday son. So thoughtful. I went in to work for 3 hours assisting in getting our room at school ready for the year and then doing a half hour of lunch recess. Then I took some b-day cards to the post office in Payson before coming home. 9 birthdays of extended family members in Sept. 3 of whom are in Andreas family. Stopped by Smiths and bought some bread and stuff for salad thinking I would come home and make me a salad for lunch. Didn't happen. On my front doorstep was an envelope and when I opened it up there was the nicest b-day card from Juanita. Rachelle, my neighbor stopped by with Dawson and Austin and gave me some tomatoes. Love it. She told me her daughter Maggie's b-day is today and I remembered little Brooke Warrens is today also so I knew what to do. I went to Family Dollar and got 2 gifts-so fun buying for little girls btw., came home and wrapped them and then delivered. Andy called and wished me a happy birthday. he was almost to Navajo Mountain. Meanwhile, I went out to the mailbox and found an envelope from my mom and dad with 50 dollar check inside. My parents are really generous with their means and love. I called them to talk to them and Mitch was there and wished me a happy birthday. Then Sheila called to wish me one. I decided to go deposit the money, but spent it right awasy on some wall deco and bought a lasagna to feed my family tonight. Kami brought the boys over and we went to Genola to watch Matthew in his first soccer game of the season. They got masacurred. J. had come over to the house by then. We ate dinner, yummy. For once, all the sauces were getting along. Best present of all. J. and Kami got me a book by Richard Paul Evans. I can't wait to start reading it. Michael and his brothers got me a gift card to Walmart. WE ate cheese cake and ice cream. Wonderful day. I wished Andy could've been here. I missed him.
