Rowan's Journal

This was in the Dr. Jon email this morning and I just had to share the happiness. SO completely sweet and adorable! It really does remind me of my sweet old Perry-dog and Mason-kitty; they were attached like this. I miss them both but getting to live with them and their amazing love for one another was a precious gift that I was blessed to have.

SO cute!

And thanks again for all the warm birthday wishes; so many of them that I may not have time to respond to them all, but really, I SO appreciate it. The amazing number and warmth of them all have made me truly joyous! The best present I could receive is such great friends!

And how could I forget my dear old (old in terms of duration, not decrepitude!) friend's birthday!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, darling motherpockets!

What can I say...so many memories, fun and tearful and joyous. You rock my world, you really do!

*HUGS*

SO much to do and here I am tinkering around on Amazon.com setting up a wedding wish list and updating (or trying to) my gift list on Amazon. Put the link on my user info page, or at least I think I did. Damned thing won't let me re-prioritize! But when folk say, "what do you want for your birthday (Yule, Christmas, Hanuka, Wedding...insert event here)?" my mind goes completely blank. Hence an Amazon.com wish list.

Yes, I'm a Leo; means I love prezzies. I do. I'm also a disgustingly practical creature, being an Aquarius and a Scorpio so what do I want most? ...garden things and kitchen things and organizational things rather than clothes or jewelry or kitschy stuff. Pretty much stuff that I'd never buy for myself. What do I want most on the whole list? A cobalt blue KitchenAid mixer. Yep, I can get all horny over a kitchenaid, I can. Silly me. Ah well.... On the other hand, a simple rose or handful of wild flowers makes be deliriously happy, too.

Well, enough of that for now. Gotta go finish Jenny's bodice and wait for Bruce's kilt fabric to arrive today. Had to fax a form for the Homeland Security Department to FedEx before they can deliver it. Made me a tad nervous coming to the notice of Homeland Security, doncha know.

But it should arrive today; hopefully in time enough for me to prep the pleats to I can take it with me to sew on during the trip. Yep, I must...only 4 weeks until the wedding.

So you won't see me around here much in the next week. Ye gods, only 9 days before my birthday, too. Nervous about getting older? Naw, not really; don't feel it, act it or look it so why should it bother me? Oh yeah, and remifeminin is once more helping with the hot flashes...woo hoo.

Busy, busy getting ready for Norman but can't let this one go by....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, KEVIN!

**smooch**

First of all, Happy Birthday to the amazing, lovely and talented bronxelf_ag001!

She's one of those people I respect and admire while realizing that she and I, as my sister used to say, "couldn't hardly be more different" from one another.

And that's very very cool with me!

Hope it's a wonderful day for you, dear!

Happy Birthday to two people, first to jmthane who is a dear friend, and then to ani_moore who is a friend of several friends of mine.

I won't subject you....do the usual "oh gods, she's singing that awful song again" and we'll just leave it at that, shall we?

Fellow Leos....ROAR!!!!

...Birthday and Great Felicitaitons to both my dear thebb73 and to Brie, the adorable little girl of dear bountifulpots and theslice! Tis an auspicious day, indeed!

*hugs* all around!

Three people I love dearly share a birthday...

Happiest of birthdays to dear smokin_man who is such an amazing, darling man and incredible character actor, dear gem_handler who has become such a beloved friend in a really short period of time, and finally to the fantabulous starwyse who is just about my olde...erm, no, my friend of longest duration (how's that?) and who is simply beyond description as a stellar human being.

May you each have fabulous natal days and know that I love each of you beyond words!

...be so remiss!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to one of my kids (even though she has perfectly wonderful parents whom I also love dearly), the wonderful and amazing bountifulpots[Unknown site tag][Unknown site tag]

I've known her literally all of her life and watched her grow up from an adorable kidling to an amazing woman!

Love ya, kiddo!!! May you have a terrific day!

First, it is gorgeous outside and I just picked daffodils from in front of the house. They smell heavenly. No, I know winter's not over but this is just delightful.

And second, wishing the best of HAPPY BIRTHDAY greetings to my dear friend, billthetailor
