From now till June I'll have to buy all my fresh flowers from the store. Loved 'em while they lasted. |
Yesterday was Scott's 52nd birthday and I was not prepared. I had no fancy supper or outing planned, no gift purchased, no card, no cake. It had actually slipped my mind for a couple days till Emil said, when he phoned Thursday night to tell me he wanted to come out to the farm this weekend, that he'd bought Scott a birthday card that plays music.
I was feeling a little guilty and trying to rouse myself into doing something special (even if that only meant wearing something sexy!), until it occurred to me to pull out a journal and see how far out of his way Scott had gone on my last birthday. It was a good idea, because I found that he'd handed me a card with $50 in it. There had been no fancy supper, no cake — he hadn't even worn anything sexy.
So I let myself off the hook. I wrote a cheque for $50, stuck it in with Emil's card, added my name, and voila! Birthday taken care of.
Good One ~!

ReplyDeleteLorraine,
ReplyDeleteRight above the option to sign yourself Anonymous is the option of filling in Name/Url. The url isn't necessary but this is where to fill in your name if you choose. Good to hear from you! - K.
Now, that's a good reason for keeping a journal!
ReplyDeleteIt comes in pretty handy when I have an actual "date" to look for, yeah! Otherwise ... it's not so easy to find anything in particular.
ReplyDeletePerfect! I love receiving money as a gift...and I rarely have a cake, either. A special dinner, maybe...xx
ReplyDeleteHa! Love it! Fair is fair.
