Birthday happened today. Woke up and was happily snoozing and brain-idling until it was time to get out of bed. This was exactly the time the post arrived. The Dutch tax office has decided to give me monies for health insurance over 2007, so that was a nice surprise.
Made coffee and found a birthday card from
supermouse near my mug and got a hug. Best way to start a birthday, definitely. :)
We then went out and got fruit and bread and things for picnic this afternoon.
the_ladylark turned up around one-ish with lots of nice salad-y things (thanks again! *hugs*) and we had a picnic in the field in front of the house. I got a stunt kite (coolest pressie ever!) and big pixie sticks from
the_ladylark and a iPhone holder from
hobnobs with a gift certificate too (so getting Flight of the Amazon Queen...).
I then spent the rest of the afternoon enjoying the sunshine. Got a sweet card from sis and Erik, got more birthday hugs from
da_pol (who is mad enough to give me my CBT for my birthday) and
arwen_lune (who's visiting these here shores for a bit) and skyped with mum. Got the coolest pressie ever* from
arwen_lune! Solar powered puppie! And it can be a solar-powered car, anna solar-powered boat, anna solar-powered windmill (which sort of defeats the point of a windmill), anna solar-powered airplane.
People left messages on my Facebook Wall, which I wasn't expecting (I'm a pretty lady, apparently. Hee. *hides*) and I'm just grinning happily because it's been great. I had glorious weather for the first time in about 10 years, there were hugs and cards and more hugs and pressies andandand...
Best birthday ever.
*Erm...Conundrum now. Stunt kite or solar-powered puppie? Both? Solar-powered kite? Stunt puppie? They're both best presents ever!
