Lucky Me

Matt made me a poppy seed bagel with lox, cream cheese, onion and tomato for breakfast this morning. I got my mushy card - something with kittens looking into a toilet and a message that said he flushes with excitement every time he sees me! How cool is that! He gave me a coffee pot for my room at school and two pounds of coffee. I also received a big red bottle of Clairol Herbal Essence shampoo with "Long Lasting Relationship" on the label. Came in very handy since I had been washing my hair with a bar of my own soap (worked okay!) I went to school and was thrilled to find lots of goodies on my desk! I felt like a little kid on Christmas morning!! Once I collected myself I dove in...there was a ceramic pumpkin decorated with silver coils, a sheep pen and chocolate covered expresso beans from Laurie, a beautiful set of stoneware kitten dishes, a pound of D.D. coffee and a chocolate cake from Gretchen, and a primitive window frame with checkered curtain from Kelly. These gals are terrific!! I had happy birthday wishes all day. Career Academy is a great place to work on your birthday! I got my coffee pot set up and running. What a difference a day makes. Yesterday I was making stops for critter supplies and things I need for show stuff this weekend, and I got the first traffic ticket in 30 years for overdue inspection!!! AND I lost my debit card!! I'm almost afraid to leave this safe, warm, dry building to venture out into the cold and rain to go home. I wanted to go to Barnes and Noble tonight but I think I will stay home and make hand creme for this weekend. Maybe I will pick up some eggplant parm from Frank's in New Berlin. Home is the best place.
