Today is my Birthday! Show me some comment love!

Yep... today is the day EVERYONE has been waiting for... with bated breath, I'm sure!
I am 41 years young today!!!!
*
I love my birthday...
It's the only day all year, I get all to myself!!! Mine... all... MINE!!!
*
Last year, Bill threw me a HUGE, wonderful, 125 person, Mama catered, white table linened,
Champagne on every table shindig, at the Sons of Italy, and it was a HUGE
SURPRISE!!!
This year... I know he'll just say Happy Bday and ask me where I want to go for dinner.
Not that there's anything wrong with that... Please don't think I require a party every year...
but a prank of some sort... would be cool, maybe something sparkly or really useful like a new laptop would be great... but... alas... I don't think it'll be done...
Except for last year... he hasn't really acknowledged my B day... really.
Sad... yes... but he is such an awesome man... who can begrudge him that one thing... ya know?
He does great for Christmas and Anniversaries... he just doesn't seem to 'get' my Bday happiness.
Whatever! Today is about ME!!!!
I know... I know... when ISN'T my day filled with me... fabulous me!
I kid, I kid... don't get your panties all in a bunch...

So... today... I am 41. I reaaaaaly love the 40's. I don't know why.
I have always love 4's, so maybe that's it.
I am enjoying the clarity of mind and spirit that comes with this age.
I speak my mind more and worry less about who hears or who likes me or who doesn't.
Not that I have ever worried or cared about what others think of me... but... you know...
now I care even LESS! Yahooooo!
***
I'll let you in on what we are doing in a day or two. AS it unfolds...I want to savor the nothingness of my B day. LOL!

This year, I am going to be sending my Mama Flowers on my Bday... she should be recieving them right about.... now.
The card reads... Thank you for taking such good care of me and for being such a great Mama... without you...I wouldn't be here! Happy GIVING birthday.
When I turn 80, hopefully she will be with us still, and be a fetching 99, I'll send her black roses... for all my aches and pains...LOL . She'd love it.. and laugh till the cows come home!
*
So... that's my post for today...
I'm 41.
Go ahead... take the day off for this holiday. Tell you boss I said it was okay...
She/He'll understand...
Oh, man! I'd better to change my profile thingy...
Now I'll say 40-ish.
Have a lovely Flag day!
