but, it isn't. Sorry guys. While I appreciate your birthday wishes oh so much, I have to tell you...today isn't the day! My Aunt Sandi is the one who started this rumor, I believe! But you can't blame her. By all accounts (except his!), my uncle wrote the date wrong in the book. To be honest, I can see where there could possibly be some confusion. My sister Sherri's birthday is September 4th. My cousin Sunshine's birthday is September 8th. My birthday is September 12th. We're all crammed in there together so I can see where one might get the date wrong. But what's in a date, right? The birthday wishes are still mighty appreciated!
Now here's the deal...I was going to announce a giveaway on my blog today. I took pictures, got everything all ready and then got distracted by other things...I had to tell you guys about Kat's mom and dad and their HRT patch, then I had to tell you about Tauna's , Julie's and Sue's Autumn postings and then I absolutely had to give a definition of Mojo because Marcia at Joy is My Goal and others had asked for it...well, before I knew it, I had already put 3 other posts up today! (Makes you wonder - how much can one person post in one day? Although, to be honest...3 or even 4 in one day isn't my "record" number...). It's either feast or famine with me, isn't it? So - in the interests of not being such a total Blog Pig today, I'll hold off on the giveaway post until tomorrow. And since my birthday is indeed September 12th, and I know for a fact that it's much better to give than to receive, that's when I'll draw the winner. So check back with me tomorrow to see what I'm giving away! Here's a hint: It has to do with the Most Wonderful Time of the Year...(oh act like you're surprised that I'd have a Christmas themed giveaway!).
P.S. Aunt Sandi - you're not going to believe this, but I just saw the UPS truck drive right past my house. I guess he couldn't see it (even though we live on the corner and we're the only two story house on the street and therefore, are pretty darn hard to miss!) I fear that the poor UPS VP's ear will never be the same if his driver doesn't open his eyes soon, will it?
OK...so I followed a link from Sandi "Whistlestop" to wish you a Happy Birthday...hmmm...OK...so I'll just mark your blog as a new read instead...and be back next week to give you the wishes then!

Well. Has Aunt Sandi been at the Gin? Happy birthday for Tuesday anyway.A damson is a bit like a plum but is very juicy.You probably have a completely different name for them in USA. We should ask our blogging mates. hope you feel better today
ReplyDeleteHi Kari-I must confess the unbirthday fiasco really made me laugh! So actually your aunt's present will be early!!! Hope you're feeling better today-just to let you know I am still in my pajamas (translation-scuzzy T-shirt)and plan to remain in it for the rest of the day!! I just can't motivate myself to tackle the housework, the vacuuming, the pile of schoolwork ect so I'm blogging you instead whilst munching a tube of green Pringles (just thought you might like to know that). Can I just thank-you for the much needed distraction you have given me! xx
