Hey guys!!! Thank you so much for all of your warm wishes. I had a terrific birthday. I did work today, but boy, the gals at work kept it fun all day. They sang happy birthday to me in the parking lot, as soon as I stepped foot out of my car. Then, when I went inside, the staff inside started singing. They had hung up banners in front of the office area for all of the client's to see (they were just he** bent on embarassing me today). They wrote on the white erase boards "Happy Birthday, Ethel." Then, one of our clients serenaded me. We had a wonderful fruit and cold cuts tray. I didn't want a cake, but they felt they had to throw a party in the afternoon complete with ice cream sundaes.

I came home to lovely presents, including an altered tin, decorated with alcohol inks and dried flowers (a gift from Far North); and I also received a cookie bouquet (a gift from Tojoco). I have been receiving beautiful cards in the mail, including one all the way from Australia (loobylou). I've also recieved cards from Joanie (ccstampin), my friend Kathy and Nancy. Earlier in the week, I received cards from other lovely Shackies.

This evening, DH, DS and I went to PF Chang's for dinner. I had to skip the ice cream trip with DH and DS since the ladies at work had the ice cream party for me. After dinner, we went inside the mall, and I became the proud owner of a new black microfiber Vera Bradley purse. LOL!

Thanks, again, for your kindness and warm wishes. I appreciate that you remembered my birthday.
