We celebrated a little early by taking in the baseball game, as I had to work on my birthday. We also got my birthday present a little early, knowing I'd get money to put towards my gift: a new laptop! Yay!!!!!

It's about 5000 times faster than the old computer, I'm not exaggerating. Robert and the kids bought me a wireless mouse, but I forgot that I was supposed to be taking a photo of it here too. The mouse has been very helpful in gaining me higher Bejeweled scores, and I'm not exaggerating about that either!
Although I had to work, my wonderful boss gave me this lovely Willow Tree piece. She did not know that I have a small collection. It was such a nice surprise. If I had to work on my birthday, at least I work at a great place with sweet people.

My family came to work and brought me McDonald's for dinner and a giant tiramisu for dessert. No candles, but we didn't need to keep the fire dept. on call.
Robert and the kids also gave me a license plate frame for my car.

Oh yeah, and I guess my car was sort of my present. LOL.
It was a very good birthday. One nice thing about getting older is that I kind of forget how old I really am. And that's very good too.

CUTE Willow Tree!
What fantastic and thoughtful gifts! 500x faster is good. LOL I'm dreaming of the fiber optic internet off base. LOL
What a great birthday! ;-) I liked all your gifts and that mouse...sheesh! I'm not sure I should even keep playing at this point between you, Deb, and my friend's 10 year old son! Yup - even he is beating me these days. LOL
Excellent laptop!
OK now I know why I'm so bad at Bejewelled, I don't use a mouse! I always wanted an excuse. VBG
