Back in August, my 34th birthday got lost amid the chaos of packing, closing on two houses, moving cross country. Billy promised me that I would get a redo once we were moved and settled. The tricky bit was that he refused to tell me when my rescheduled birthday was.
Apparently, it's today. And not a moment too soon. I was beginning to worry that I'd turn 35 before I got to turn 34.
Billy and Thumper are off at a baby-car-seat check at the Fire Department right now (safety first, dontcha know), and then we have a fun-filled day of I-don't-know-what ahead of us. I've been told there are presents involved, which suits me just fine.
For the moment, I'm drinking coffee and knitting a new vest for Thumper, to match his new hat. Because they're only young enough to let you get away with such things for so long. I'm feeling much better, though still hacking and coughing in a rather unbecoming way. High hopes for a total recovery by Thanksgiving.
Happy birthday to me! And have a great weekend.

Posted by: SharonHappy Birthday Cari, and congrats on the new house, too. I have to laugh at "they're only young enough to let you get away with such things for so long.." My eighteen year old daughter (now punk -and dreadlocked!) likes to show her friends her first day of kindergarten photo - blouse, corduroy jumper and mary janes, and claim to have been abused- just look at how I dressed her!

Posted by: knittrippsHappy Birthday, part II!
(I had to do the same thing this year when our babysitter had a sick baby of her own. It's really quite nice to have more than one day of celebration.)

Posted by: alisonThat is a great idea: a random rescheduled birthday.
Posted by: claudiaHappy Birthday! Did the WSJ (Sara Munoz) interview you about the St. Joseph statue? I was so surprised to see your name on the first page of my Seattle Times Real Estate section!

Posted by: LyndaHappy birthday!!! Hope your day was filled with all kinds of great stuff.
Posted by: AmyDude, that happens to me every year. The reschedule thing, not the moving across the country thing. Moving across the apartment is enough to spark a reschedule ;-)
Happy Redo Birthday to you!
