Well it was a happy birthday for me. I just need to say I have the most wonderful husband ever. Bill, being the awesome man that he is, ordered several cd's from Scottish Folk Musician Dougie MacLean, direct from Dougie's web site, and signed and all. I can't recommend Dougie highly enough, and I just think it's awesome Bill thought of such an awesome gift. Thanks again sweetheart.
For dinner last night we made homemade pizza - which I love. So it was the perfect Birthday dinner for me. I had some awesome cuddles from Duncan - it was a good night.
I also have awesome friends and family - from Mom who dropped off a card, beautiful plant arrangement, and chocolate cake, to Ronnie who gave me a Starbucks card - which is allowing me to enjoy a Grande Soy Pumpkin Spice Latte right now - to Theresa who tried to buy me tea yesterday afternoon. I say tried b/c she forgot her wallet at her desk. Convenient? Well get this, Starbucks says "don't worry, we'll get it next time". They see us in there all the time, so I guess they know she's good for it. I told her it was a handy trick though.
Tonight we at Mom and Dad's for dinner. Tomorrow night we've got people coming over! Yay! So it's like a 3 day celebration. And well you know, I'm worth it, so that's okay. LOL!!!! JK!! I'm really not that cocky.
Love you all. Hope you're well.

Wednesday (for lack of a better subject line)
I screwed up my blog. I was playing around with settings, forgot to back up my old format and lost a few of the small things I had added in - like my blog list. So now I will need to build a new one - but when I get back.
Got my hair done tonight. Looks good - and quite blonde (really!) but, eek, it was expensive! I knew there was a reason I wasn't getting it done more often. It was fun to have Tim (my hair dresser) do it though, and I'm very happy with the end result.
Spa appointment booked for Saturday. It's a good thing my husband loves me and lets me do this and also that I don't do this too often that he won't let me when I want to :)
Two more days of work and then two weeks of vacation! Yay! That's going to be fun.
It really, really sounds like our suburban office is going to be a mere 6 km away once the new Golden Ears Bridge opens up next year. I can not say how thrilled I am that work will probably be this close to home. I can't even comprehend a 10-15 minute commute, or the option to bike to work, or walk if I want... the option to come home at lunch if I need to b/c I forgot something, or need to get Duncan... I take back being upset a few weeks back. 'Pologize! Now it's not 100%, but by the sounds of it, this is the location they are looking at (200th and 88th in Langley). Brand new building with a Starbucks in the parking lot (oh, and don't worry there, is a Tim's near by for those of you who prefer Mr. Horton's brew).
Speaking of Tim Hortons oh the one in Royal Centre has irked me for the last time and I now refuse to go there. They went to this stupid 3 line system - one for each cash, as opposed to one big line that goes to the next available cash. We waited in line for over 15 minutes!! It was just crazy. Tims - it's not working with the 3 line system and I know other people who won't go there any more either. Fix it!
Good night

Not into it today
I've actually had a fabulously productive morning but I am not into it today! It's the kind of day where you work hard to make the day go fast, not because you're wanting to be there.
I'm so excited they opened a new Starbucks downtown!! *grin* I now have 7 literally within one block of where I am sitting. How sad! What's even more sad is that they all do steady business.
We're thinking of getting our windows replaced. They don't have to be, but they aren't high quality and we need to get the sliding door done, so we might go ahead and do it all. We need to write strata and what not 1st, but it would be good.
Bill came into town yesterday to chat with his boss and what not. Work is being really good about him being off. Bill decided to check his email while he was there and it just confirmed that he literally can not work right now. I think that was good for him because it takes away some of the guilt of missing work. There is a difference between saying you can't work and going and trying and confirming it. We went for lunch together and then he met Roc in the afternoon. It was good he got out of the house, but the sunlight was really harsh for him. Next doctor's appointment is tomorrow.
