We did go to SC and get some fireworks<\/a> 1<\/a> 2<\/a> for my birthday, and to pick up milk from the farm<\/a> yesterday.<\/p>\n

I have my birthday cheesecake in the oven. (yes, I am making my own birthday cake, beats having one from a store …)<\/p>\n

Frank had me open my presents already. A bunch of scrapbooking stuff from Target, the $1 stuff, but it’s good stuff, a cool throw he found in a store in Greenville, SC the other week, it’s a baseball thing, made of 90% cotton\/recycled cotton, remainder virgin acrylic. I’ll have to get a picture taken & uploaded, or find one online …<\/p>\n

My big gift was a Wacom intuos 4<\/strong><\/em> graphics tablet<\/a>. I’ve wanted on for years, and this is a nice one. It’s the S version, a start-up for me (he agreed, planned that already, that this would graduate to the children and I’d get a larger tablet someday.)<\/p>\n

So now I need space to work in. More than ever.<\/p>\n

Happy Birthday to me!<\/p>\n

Best present comes later … setting off the fireworks linked above. Also have several Crackling Jets<\/a> and Magic Crystals<\/a>; as well as firecrackers left over from the 4th<\/a>, which were part of what we bought and got “free” from Phantom with our purchase then, so they are NOT the ones I prefer. I like Black Cat firecrackers<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
