saturday

I have the next 7 days off of work. I'm very grateful for the time off!
This evening I will celebrate daughters' birthday with her. It will just be the two of us
watching movies, munching on popcorn, and chit chatting! It was her idea. She wanted some alone time with mom. I'm always happy to spend time with my adult children! I'm a dork that way!

I made a Key Lime cake a year ago that daughter loved. She's asked about it a couple of times at family gatherings, and why I didn't bring one. So I'm going to make one for her for her birthday cake....AND I bought her the free standing mirror and a nice bottle of perfume. It's hard to afford nice bottles of perfume(the cheap crap should not be allowed. it can be offensive!) when you're young and just starting out on your own. So yeah, it's what I bought for her......

I have a patient, a  young man who is the most self centered, self absorbed person I've ever known. He's miserable.
His mom and sister asked me for ideas on what they could buy him for his birthday.
...........I think we should all have something or someone to take care of other than just ourselves.........it just makes you feel better.........it's good for the soul......... I suggested they get him a high maintenance plant or a fish.... or both.........he could have either of those things at the nursing home...

HAPPY 9th BIRTHDAY, little lady!
