Hi everyone!

Ok, I'm too busy dealing with work issues to have any accomplishments. But, like it or not some "accomplishments" happen to you. Today's my birthday. Like it or not, these things happen to us all I guess.

So far the day is shaping up lovely (and let's hope it continues that way too!!!) My office stitching pals graced my hovel with flowers --


and the world's largest balloon --


The folks at Laphroaig sent me birthday greetings --

{LOL note: When you log on to the site you have to prove you are old enough to drink in your country. I always pick a random date to put in for my birth year. I didn't realize it would feature in the card. LOL)

And a sure sign of pleasantness to come is how Paris looks first thing when I log on --

I have a webcam for the Tower set on my google page so I always see it first thing when I log on. What can I say, it's a pretty way to start the day. Try it for yourself. I find it always makes me smile.
