40th Birthday today

August 22nd, 2009 at 09:10 am

Today is my 40th b-day! I got an Ipod Touch from my hubbie and a beautiful heart locket with 5 charms from my boys. The charms were carefully selected and they are: a heart which reads "my boys", my initial, my birthstone, a dog paw (I just adore dogs) and an apple which reads "special teacher". Later we'll go out to dinner. Our get together had to be cancelled do to the weather.

Trying hard not to be a slave to the lenders.
