HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!

I used to hate birthdays. But starting THIS year, I'm not going to anymore!
So I'm celebrating! I'm

And here's a cute little video to myself!


If you have read my blog for a while, you probably know about the brain-freeze that I had this past year. All year long I've been thinking and saying, I'm going to be

I could never bring myself to say 52. And since I'm celebrating, I really don't want to go THERE right now, I mean why I didn't want to be 52. But HEY! I made it!

I'm over that huge graping crevice in the road! I am

I thought about maybe getting a Tattoo to commemorated the event. I already have a teeny tiny flower on the front of my ankle. One of my best friends and I went to get tattoo's YEARS ago. Me, a flower and she a Shamrock on her boob area. Well, I got the flower and she backed out......Yeah, surprisingly we are still friends! Hmmmm, best not to think about that too long. Anyway, yesterday I was over at Wyanne's blog.

(she's an amazing artist and she always inspires me!) well, she just got a tattoo and it got me thinking about getting one on top of my foot. I gotta tell you, if you Google tattoo's, don't be drinking coffee or anything!  some of that stuff is NOT pretty!

I do kinda like this one-

maybe change it around a little and have it wind around my ankle and down onto my foot.

OR, I'll probably just pay my water bill instead. I have a hard time spending money on things that are NOT necessary. But who knows..................

It's the year of 53!

Anything can and will happen!

and while I was looking at tattoo designs, I stumbled on a design that I'm going to have to try to figure out who created it because I would LOVE to have it as my LOGO!

Here it is! -

as far as using it for a tattoo, well it's just too freaking big!

I mean - OUCH!

but that's OLDBLACKCATBOO if I ever saw it!!!!

So, must research that!

I'm not sure what I'm going to do today but I know that my niece Maggie is baking me a special cake with Chocolate, Almonds, Cream Cheese and Raspberries!!!

OMG! Calories don't count on your birthday!

So! This is MY YEAR!!!

Hey, I just recently realized that my email address has 053 in it!

I didn't pick it, I mean of course I choose the RUBY part but the # 1 was taken and so was #01 and #001 so they just randomly gave me 053!

I tell you this is going to be a great year, I'm not making a list or anything.

It's just going to happen!
