What with one thing and another, I just realized today that I missed my blogversary. It was in February, and since we were on our trip out west, it completely escaped my mind. Then, :yesterday was my birthday. It was a very busy day.
Just a note: Don't ever start out your birthday with a visit to the Dentist.
First, I got up late. Jackie has to be to school by 8, but no one in our house woke up until 7:50. I woke up at 7:50, realized that Jackie had to go to school, and I needed to be at the dentist's office at 8:15, and then got going. I woke Jackie up, found her some clothes, and then found some for me. It was 8:00 by the time we were out the door. I'm actually pretty proud of that. Jackie even had some cereal to eat on the way. . . Four minutes of dry cereal does not a breakfast make, but it was the best we could do under the circumstances. I ran her into her classroom and then ran back out to the car. I pulled into the dentist's office at 8:17. So, I found out something interesting. Did you know that stomach acid can tear apart dental filling composit? Appearantly, when I was pregnant with Daniel, my morning sickness tore apart the fillings I already had in my mouth. So, now, I have 14 cavities to have filled. 14! Do you know what that costs without dental insurance? 14 cavities!!!!!!! $2,212 and some change. So, Happy Birthday to me. However, I did get two birthday celebrations yesterday, so by the time I had eaten cake at story time and fondue at supper, I felt much better about my B-day. A little chocolate fondue makes me feel lots better. Chocolate fondue with marshmallows, strawberries, bananas, rice crispy treats, and cheesecake to dip in it. YUMMY! Anyway, I feel much better today after a night's sleep on a stomach filled by The Melting Pot. If you ever have a very special occasion that gets ruined in the morning. A meal at The Melting Pot is the way to fix it.

Perhaps your choice of dessert wasn't such a good idea considering the state of your teeth? That is just amazing.
But other than that, I hope you had a great day. :)
The last couple of birthdays for me have been really lousy too. It goes a long way to keep saying "happy birthday to me!" each time something bad happens. I don't know why, but for some reason it makes me smile. I have decided though, that if this birthday is equally as miserable I am going to get a birthday do-over. I will just pick a random day and pretend it's my birthday. :)Sometimes you just need a good one. Anyway, Happy Birthday yesterday, and I guess better Happy-er unbirthday today!
Happy Birthday! A day in life; being a mom is always full of surprises!
I'm glad we were able to redeem your day. The Melting Pot was not up to its best, but its second best is still pretty amazing, huh?
Ellie, I am such a dope I did not even raelized it was your birthday! So many appologies, and a very Happy Birthday! kim
