Plans for Today

Drop off Flora, and get coffee and breakfast with Kate and Michael.

A parent-teacher conference for Kate.

Lunch with Flora. Yes, at her school cafeteria. (I’ll be packing a lunch.)

Some shopping at Bed Bath & Beyond. (I have a gift card.)

I need three pairs of shoes. So: shoe shopping, although I won’t buy all three pairs. I desperately need sneakers, though. I can’t even begin to exercise — and I definitely need to start exercising — because I don’t have sneakers. It’s a little ridiculous.

And foundation. I need a new, cream-based foundation.

Cake, probably after dinner with my children. Maybe brownies instead of cake. But something delicious that can hold a candle or three.

In other words, a quiet day full of treats. Exactly the kind of day a birthday should be as far as I’m concerned.

What do you like to do on your birthday?

  1. Sounds lovely! Happy Birthday and enjoy!
    The only other thing I would recommend is a massage…and a manicure and pedicure:)

  2. Happy Birthday, my friend!

    For birthdays, I like drinks and quiet time with family or friends, after a big pasta dinner. Well, unless the Penguins are playing, in which case everyone should just bugger off…

    • Yes, Dan and I had a nice dinner together on Saturday. I don’t like big parties anymore (I have to throw too many of those for my kids), but dinner out, cake with family, maybe a drinks with a few friends… all over the course of at least a week… that’s good stuff.

  3. Happy birthday!

    For my birthday I like for my husband to take me out to dinner, and to take me to the farmers market and let me buy whatever I want. 🙂
