twenty-eight

today I turned twenty-eight

it has been a bit of a funky birthday

I think things have just been different this year

I'm still trying to get into my new school

get back into teaching more than one subject at a time with a group of kids

and due to some complicated circumstances

this will be the first year in my 28 that I do not get to have

the family birthday party that I have had every year leading up to this

and to be honest, it is bugging me a bit

maybe because this is my last birthday before E arrives

and I just wanted to do my "normal" party

but I'm not sure

with all that being said I enjoyed my birthday dinner

and my favorite type of presents

vintage & things for E, with a few goodies for me as well

now as many of you may know that pyrex is one of my favorite things

and the husband sure knew just the piece that I needed

in fact, I told him that having this piece by the time I was 30 was a goal

and he made sure that it happened a few years early!

can't wait to do some re-organizing tomorrow

because now, my new dots set is complete

and I think it needs to be featured front & center with the rest of the beauties
