Know what it is in 2 weeks???

My BIRTHDAY!! Yup that's right another year older, and wiser I'll become. When i was working outside the home, I'd make a big deal out of my b-day. One of the other girls that I worked with, before she moved to Florida, we had fun planning our 'b-day MONTH' at work. Each year I'd come up with a different theme. Lets see there was care bears, strawberry shortcake, and actually that's all I can think of in my wind blown head (VERY windy here). I'd tell them i was registered at different stores and would make sure they had my invitation list to MY PARTY:)

Of course that was all in fun and games and to be honest, it gave us all something to laugh about and have fun with. But we would order lunch from the b-day persons favorite place and there would be treats and cake. Often years there were some little presents too.

I love presents. BUT i hate suspense/surprises. The biggest torture for me is when someone says 'i have a surprise for you' I kid you not, I will do whatever it takes to beat it out of you. My husband as realized it's best to say NOTHING if he has a surprise. I don't like suspense one bit. I like to be prepared. If you'd throw a surprise party for me and could get it past me, well then you're pretty darn good. Like the time I had a baby shower at church, before C'man was born, and my FF-L flew in from New Jersey and surprised the HECK out of me. Everyone but Jeff and I knew she was coming. It was the most amazing thing EVER. Even the ladies of the church were involved in it. That's probably the only time someone has surprised me like she has.

So anyway, yesterday I told DH I needed to get up to Sioux city to get HIS b-day present. His is the 22nd!! He wanted some ideas for my b-day, ok so maybe i asked him what he had in mind for me. So i obliged. My list consisted of:
Pedicure/facial/massage
a nice outfit like Capri's, shirt
blue tooth for my cell
jewelry (of which i just got it myself and it'll be my present to me)
someone to come in and give our house a 'deep cleaning'
picture frames

I told him that anything on this list would be fine but what he doesn't get, could then be given on Mothers Day (LOL) Now really does anything on that look to hard?? I think the first would be the easiest b/c that would just entail a call to a place and give them his credit card number and wala, done deal.

Want to know what HE wants to get me?? Lingerie. I said heck no, what a waste of money and time. Get me something I really want and could use.

So with that i have a b-day challenge for you readers. I want you to tell someone about my blog and you and them post a comment. Lets see if I can get some of you stalkers to come out and talk to me. Pleeeeaasseee it's my b-day wish from you, to me!!

Time to go finish getting ready for my in laws. They are coming over for supper tonight. Roast with veggies in the crock pot, homemade bread in the bread machine and waiting for DH to bring Vegetable oil so i can finish the cake:)
