Well, it's officially my birthday. It's been a good day. Griffin called to wish me a Happy birthday, then later called again to wish me a Happy Mother's day. Apparently, today is Mother's day in Costa Rica. It was a nice relaxing day. For dinner we went to my favorite Greek restaurant. I got lots of phone calls, messages and friends dropping by.
So, in honor of my birthday I decided to make a list of thirty-seven things about me.
1. I love Halloween. I may be the only person I know who can burn through their birthday money buying Halloween décor.
2.Fall is my very favorite season. I love the colors, foods, weather, all of it!
3. I have a major sweet tooth. I don't know what I'd do without dessert.
4. I have always wanted to be a mom. I use to play mom with all my stuffed animals, and dolls.
5. I can't ever half ass things. When I commit to a project, I pull out all the stops to make it the very best. Even if I don't have the time or energy.
