28 and feeling great!!!!

Kiss 27 goodbye!!!!! Hello 28!!!

...and why shouldn't I feel great???? Age is nothing but a number.... Not much else...It doesn't make me sad, it doesn't depress me... It doesn't define me or change who I am... I have no choice but to get "older"... especially since the only other alternative is to be dead and well, I'm not ready for that... WAYYYY too much to do, see and accomplish to be thinking about that! So happy birthday to me!!!! Here's a look back at ME!!!! A few random pics from waaaaay back when I was young to some more recent pics...


I've had the great opportunity to celebrate my birthday for a few days!!! It started last Saturday when we had our Rock Band / Cinco De Mayo / my birthday party.... We had about a dozen friends and family show up.... We sang, rocked out, ate, drank and laughed our asses off... Some people even puked from all the fun!!!! ;)~ Good times!!! Kimmy and Christi stayed the night and when we woke up the next morning I made us all some yummy breakfast... Here's the Party Pics Slide show.... Enjoy!!!


Monday was Cinco De Mayo.... and while I usually find myself going out on this day...this year I stayed home!!! Mark and I snuggled on the couch, had some leftovers, watched some TV and called it a night!!! I think we were still recovering from the party.... Doing nothing was just what the doctor ordered... Especially since Mark was still getting over a sinus infection and I was starting to feel sick too....

Tuesday was my actual birthday... I went to work.... and was sang to by every O.R. I stepped in, and once in recovery too!!! I love my coworkers and the docs I work with too!!! They're so awesome!!! One of my nurses (and friend) took me out to lunch.. A few other coworkers came with... We had pizza and cheesecake and it was so yummy!!!! After work I met up with my good friend Polly at a place called Zendejas... We had some drinks, chatted and had a great time!!! (Sorry I didn't bring my camera Polly!!! I luv ya!!!) From there I took Noah to tae kwon do, then we headed home for family dinner. My mom and sisters came over... we had Juan Pollo and Ice cream cake... and opened presents!!!! I was so excited to see that they had all gotten together and bought me an acoustic guitar... Ever since we started playing guitar hero and rock band I've been curious to try and learn... so now I can!!!! I've been practicing everyday since and can play some basic chords and just about all of jingle bells... It's exciting!!! My new hobby.


The rest of this week has been pretty much back to normal... Unfortunately I got a really bad toothache on the night of my birthday and it turned out I have to have 2 root canals!!!! Ugh... One of them is a repeat... turns out the first guy that did it, did a horrible job!!! So it infected the tooth next to it, hence two root canals.... What a bummer.... Oh well.... At least my dentist was so good at numbing my mouth that I was starting to fall asleep while he drilled!!!! LOL!!! I'm serious!!! I have to go back next week to finish them off, so wish me luck!

Saturday is work as usual and in the evening we are going to an event called the Riverside Prom. If you remember, last years theme was Back to the Future....Mark and I dressed up as a saloon girl and the gambler... This years theme is Slumber Party Slaughter!!!! A tribute to B-rated slasher movies.... So we're gonna get dressed in our fav. pajamas and slippers and head on out for a night of music, dancing and maybe even a few drinks.... (not including the pre-drinks at our place) Should be a good time!!! I'll take tons of pics and hopefully load them up by the end of the weekend....

Sunday, of course, is Mothers Day!!!! So we'll be headed over to my moms to BBQ and celebrate us moms!!!! I can't wait... I love my mommy!!! She's the best!!! I'm glad we're so close in our relationship and distance!!! It's even nicer that I get to see her when I take Noah to tae kwon do too!!! (She's took a part-time receptionist job there) Tis the day to show that appreciation!!!!

Well, Life is good, life is great!!!! I think I'll make a chocolate cake!!!! J/K....

Have a great weekend everyone. And Happy Mother's Day to all you moms out there!!!! From one mom to another!!!! Sometimes it feels like a thankless and impossible job, but the other 99% of the time, it's the best feeling in the world!!!! Enjoy your day!!!

Happy Mother's Day to you! You are very lucky to have your little guy and he's very blessed to have you. Hope you had a wonderful day!

Good luck on the root canal thing! I hate going to the dentist. It's never good news for me. Actually, I think I have an appointment late this month... yikes!
