Circumstances are such this year that I’m not having any big celebration. But coming through the recent holidays and into the new year, I’ve been reinspired on a number of things, and that makes for a good birthday. Plus, lots of greetings from friends on Facebook. Plenty of smiles from that.
Celebration dining consisted of a delicious roast beef sandwich and some Ben & Jerry’s ice cream. Hadn’t indulged in that in quite a while, so it makes up for no birthday cake. Heh.
And then the Creature had to get into the act. I set the pint down on my desk for a moment to check something – I hadn’t even taken a bite yet! And he jumped down, and tried to make a grab for at least a spoonful.
I tried to tell him what a mess it would be for him. It took some persuading.
