Birthday Report!


I have had an unbelievable birthday.  I went on a date for lunch with a guy I met online and he FLEW in to take me out.  He shows up with a dozen roses.  Come to find out he's a millionaire.  And then he buys me a new GPS as a gift.  On the first date.  I'm a little wary but being glad for today going so well and as someone had wished miracles just for me.  Then tonight I got off work early, went out with my one friend and had some drinks and sang karaoke.  Just got home and ready for bed!  It has been a whirlwind birthday and extremely surprising to say the least.  Who gets invited to lunch by a millionaire and is told to pick whatever you want at the mall as a gift?  WOW!

Anyway, I'm grateful for today and for the wonderful surprises and no overthinking just accepting a gift as a gift.  Odd as it is....

I had a really hard time finding something for myself because I thought I really don't need anything.  All I could think about is getting stuff for the kids.  But here I am the proud owner of a new gps which has already been SOOOOOO helpful on my 2nd job.  I did still get a needed item rather than a fluffy wanted item but still it was very expensive and who would have guessed my birthday would turn out like that?  Funny thing is I wished for hp to send my man that I have been waiting for to me.  This may not be him but it gives me hope that there's one out there and I'm fabulous the way I am! 

Even funnier, remember all those cracks about finding a lawyer boyfriend back in the day?  Ya, he's a lawyer... LMAO  What are the odds?  A year ago I would have been obsessing about whether we were going to get married and live happily ever after.  Now I am happy that I have what I have and if it turns out to be more then so be it and if not that's fine too!

Thank you HP for such a WONDERFUL birthday!!!!!!

Hi CG, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!  Am so glad you had a great time.

Did this guy TELL you he's a millionaire?  Am I skeptical?  Sure, always.  Be careful, and don't give your heart away too soon.  But enjoy, and have fun.

Just advice your mom would give...LOL!!

Best of all things for you in 2008.

Like Seren, I was waiting for you to say you woke up or give a similar punchline.

It was real.

Yay! for you!

I am so glad you had a great birthday.

Good for you to take it for what it is. What an incredible gift. I know I obsess endlessly over how will I meet someone. How will I move on?  I am so proud and in awe of you.
