Happy Birthday to Me!!

Today is my birthday!! 45yrs today... Surprisingly it feels good... I kinda like 45... I think I finally feel like a grown up, lol... and I feel like me again... I know what I like and don't like... and what I want... now if we could just move on from these hormones... it would be perfect...

I am now on vacation for nine days... Plans for the beach in Monterey, the movies, the zoo, setting up the pool... Hubby has a few days off too... But today and tomorrow he is off at work... He was home early yesterday with a cold... Which reminds me I already got my first bday present, his cold... lol... I have a sore throat today...

The boys are now on summer vacation as of today... Yesterday was the last day of school... Yea!! Son3 is now a third grader and son2 is now a sophomore... Son3 got all B's and C's on his report card... Son2's will come in the mail in a couple of weeks... Son2 hung out with his friends after school yesterday and had pizza... Son3, hubby and I got Carl's Jr. and watched two more Buffy episodes... Son2 is watching them now and son3 is getting ready to head for computer games... First he wants a jelly waffle for breakfast... I am a bit disappointed with the end of son3's school year... When I picked him up all the kids had full back backs and paper bags from cleaning out their desks... Son3 however cleaned out his desk and threw everything away... sob... I save most of their school papers... He said the teacher said he could bring it home or throw them away... however he also said he didn't want me to see some of the papers, I guess they had bad grades or the teacher wrote comments... Now I know why he never brought home any papers all year... Third grade can only get better....

Son1 came over... He will be moving home at the end of the month... He and girlfriend have finally decided to break up... Son2 has known since Mother's Day... I'm glad son2 and son1 are able to talk to each other... They already gave their notice at their apartment and son1 got a storage near the house... He came over to borrow a lock and move some of his stuff to the storage... They are deciding who gets which dog, Abby and Danny... I hope he picks Danny... He also has a hamster... And he got a 8 week old lab puppy... He says it is solely an outside dog though... my backyard.......... For now he can set up his futon and tv in the front living room... which will give him a bit of privacy with access to the front door, kitchen and bathroom... and we still have the family room... he is looking forward to having access to the washer and dryer, lol.. I told him we will make a schedule... I told him his number one priority is getting caught up on his bills... he has gotten behind the last six months or so... and then saving money so he can be on his own again... he's been on his own for three years now so moving home will be a bit of an adjustment... but between work and his friends he will have plenty of freedom... it will be a bit of an adjustment for everyone, especially with all the pets... Holly will set them straight I'm sure...

I have pork roast, potatoes, carrots, mixed veggies with herb and garlic marinade in the crock pot for dinner... I have started making son2 a list of things he needs to accomplish today and tomorrow... I need to get the laundry done and wash all the bedding... Straighten up the kitchen and wash the dishes... Vacuum the family room... Sit in the sun... watch a movie or two... watch some Buffy and Emergency... Be a lady of leisure on my bday day... two whole days to get things I want to do done without going to work... and then the family vacation starts on Sunday....

Happy Journaling...
