When I woke up this morning, and came into the kitchen, Yon son was there, cooking breakfast.We had orange juice, with lumps of ice in it, it was so cold, biscuits and gravy,eggs and bacon, and as luck would have it, my blood sugar was so low, it didn't have to turn anything down, but neither did I eat all of everything he gave me! Wo! I was stuffed! Then I got a beautiful card, that made me weep, it was so sweet, and Yon son was very pleased that I liked it so much.I also got a nice card from my sister, and she sent me a small check, so now I have money I can spend on...something.Yon son also got a card from her also nice, also with a small check. For a moment there, we felt positively rich!" Now", says he," I've got more money I can spend on you!" I tried to argue with him that he should spend it on himself, but as usual, he won't listen. He came over and hugged me,and wished me happy birthday, and then produced presents! WOW! A DVD of "NATIONAL TREASURE " With Nicolas Cage...what a great movie! We watched it almost immediately...but first I had to open the rest of my gifts. I got a small rug latch hook kit, for in my bedroom, it's all pink and blue and has hearts and a cute teddy bear in the middle. It's going to be lots of fun to make! Then I got a CD-ROM of one of my favorite games.."BEJEWELED"...LOL.. AND we played that for a while too...and Yon son complained because it was so addictive! Last, but certainly not least, he gave me a set of pink Pajamas...pink leopard print pants, and a solid light pink top with a pink leopard print cat, dead center, wearing a rhinestone collar, and it says, "JUST PURR-FECT" underneath.And, it was! It fits me perfectly, and comfortably, but I had to take it right back off,and have Yon son wash the sizing out right away, because sizing does a number on my skin...doesn't it everybodies? Anyway, we watched the movie while my new Jammies dried on the fan, and then the phone calls started...during each talk, we stopped the movie, but finally I got things squared away,and the movie finished...I'm going to watch it again and again...and then we played bejeweled,and I changed into my new jammies, and we got sleepy and gave up,and went back to bed about ten thirty.Oh! I forgot to tell you, we get up about 5:30-6 o'clock around here...Unless I stay up all night blogging or writing, but I didn't blog at all last night. I was tired, so I turned in about 2 a.m.Yon son works until 6 so...there you go. He went to bed, I went back to bed.Around 3:30 we got up and had lunch, and this was broiled chicken and 7 layer salad. I worked on my rug while we watched Jeopardy!,the news, and Raymond, and I got sleepy again, and went back to bed until about 10. I know it sounds like I sleep a lot, but really, I don't, unless I have a day like yesterday, when I took a bath, washed my hair and curled it,and did my nails.I have very long hair,and it takes HOURS to dry and curl. Other than that, when I do go back to bed, I am up every 3 hours, because I have to take water pills,and Mrs. Murphy calls me frequently then.So then when I got up at ten, I ran my blood sugar,and it was pill time anyway, so that is when we had cake and ice cream..just a sliver,and a tiny, tiny scoop of ice cream. It was wonderful! After the news, we watched the Outrageously funny videos that son taped for me, and then played bejeweled for a while, and then son had to go,after he gave me my foot massage...(circulation, you know) What a nice day! What a wonderful, glorious, great birthday I had. And tomorrow will be wonderful too, because Sherry will be here for Bible study,and have cake and ice cream with us,and I know we will be playing games after too.I don't know If I could get used to this being spoiled rotten, but I would like to give it a shot! I didn't do a single productive thing today.I didn't feed the bird, or the fish, or the cat, and I didn't water a single plant. Every time I would mention doing one of those things, he would say" I already took care of it. Relax! It's your Birthday!"
(SIGH)
After all that, all I can say is, "THIS IS A DAY THE LORD HAS MADE, LET US REJOICE AND BE GLAD IN IT!"
Thank you Father!
OUI?
