from the start.

What a difference a day makes.

Saturday the 14th. What a difference a day makes! Since yesterday's entry:

I am lucky to be alive to SAY that in three short days I will be 50.

The jewelry party wasn't a jewelry party. It was a surprise birthday party for MOI!

We never got any thunderstorms.

The zit has disappeared.

Stomach is fine.

I didn't stop at the bank so I was 10 minutes early for work.

Yes, the jewelry party was a ruse. I had all intentions of spending money I didn't have. The party was at my friend, Donna's house. There were 10 firends there. When I was invited to the "jewelry" party, I was asked to just bring a bag of chips and just show up. Did I just take chips? Hell no! I took a HUGE bag of chips, two containters of dip and, when it still didn't seem like I was taking my share for 10 people, I made a tray of deviled eggs too! Terry and I had steak for dinner and I had even wrapped the bones to take to Daisy, Donna's Bassett hound.

I walked in the door, loaded down with my goodies and the first thing I hear is "Surprise!!" from Donna. That in itself is not unusual. Donna yells "Surprise!" if she breaks a nail. She is known to do silly stuff. If you asked why she yelled, surprise, she would just say. "Surprise cause I'm here!" Ya well, Donna, you live here. Big surprise. Well at least this time, she was right. I was not simply surprised, I was blown a way. They decorated her livingroom/kitchen and it looked adorable. And it was all for me. THer were presents, balloons and plenty of food. This surprised me. Not that I don't think I deserve a party or to be treated special on occasion, but I am normally the one holding the party not the recipient. I don't know how to react. I am the same with compliments. I am one of those people that has to force myself to just say thank you when someone pays me one. I had to work on that. I used to be the type that if, for instance, you were to tell me you liked my new outfit, I would say something like, "This? Only $5.00 at the consignment shop." Or, "You've lost weight" "Ya, but I'm still a blimp."

But last night, I done good. I simply said "Wow!" ane told Donna she was a shit for pulling the scam on me. I was totally surprised. That made my day. I am not easily fooled. Not that I am so smart, just that someone usually slips up and I find out. No last night though. It was great.

I got some neat stuff too. Two more angels to add to my collection, a huge flower, plenty of food and drink.

Drinks! Oh my, were there drinks! Jack Danials rasberry coctails (Yummmm), chapagne, wine and beer. I was good. Two Jacks and one sip of champagne when they all toasted me. That was it. I was very greatful this morning. I have a dinner to go to tonight, so I took it easy.

We are supposed to see something today. I am trying to remember what it looks like. The Sun!! I think I remember. I can't remember ever seeing so much rain in one spring as I have this year. I probably have, but I don't remember. I am worried that we will wake on morning to 95% humidity and billions of mosquitos carrying the West Nile Virus. Scarey. Someone sent me an e-mail and said that the best way to keep mosquitos away is to put out a plate of Joy diswashing liquid. Ok, that's fine for the back yard and I will be ok as long as I'm doing dishes, but what about just being out and about? I guess I'm going to have to start carrying around the kitchen sink.

Well, I'm going to run. While I was a partying fool last night, Terry was taping the 3-hour Stargate SG1 for me. Time to watch it!

Later...

Later,
Cosmic
