Just another day in the life

I spent a good part of my day on bookwork, filings etc. That was, I did what I needed to do and then I did a lot of what I wanted to do. At 1 I went to a lunch with three other Rotary ladies. It was at Judy’s house and she had made amazing clam chowder and corn bread. Her birthday is tomorrow and we had a delicious raspberry chocolate cake and a great visit.

I stopped at the post office and sent off my cousin Deb’s birthday present and then it was back to ground floor where there was another delicious cake. Steve had stopped for FPPAS business and joined us. By now I was about to explode as though I had had a full turkey dinner.

Diana had dropped off a bevie of gifts while I was gone and I was overwhelmed. She is so dear and generous and I always feel completely spoiled by her.

I did some more filings and then headed to meet the family and friends like family at Taco TIme for dinner. It was my choice and I had a good meal and fun. The manager (owner?) brought over churros for everyone when he saw it was my birthday.

We all went back to the Guedes house and played a game called Outsmarted. It was a fun combination of Trivial Pursuit and Who Wants to be a Millionaire. There was a board, die and figures. We had to download an app for the trivia part of the game rather than cards. It was so much fun. I highly recommend it. Ashlée won with Jeff and I close behind.

I was completely spoiled with gifts today as well. So much to be grateful for. I had fun opening my gift from Mark over FaceTime with him. He made some very special fun things for me. I can’t wait to iron on my transfer to a T-shirt. He even made a card game and sent me the beta version to test out with family.

I posted on Facebook my feelings about the day but I want to remember it here. Every little message, text, email was so much a part of filling my tank. Every one lead me down memory lane of how I know the people, how much they have added to my life. I had people sing to me! It really was a fabulously awesome day! I am a lucky woman.
