Birthday Update

Well....kudos to my ever-creative and fast-thinking husband who managed to pull a birthday celebration out of his rear at the last minute. Last night we went to the always sublime Manresa in Los Gatos (my very favorite restaurant) for a delicious meal. And this morning I'm off to a local day spa for a much-needed massage. So I guess I no longer have a reason to sit around pouting. Aside from the fact that I'm going to be a year older tomorrow and it's just one more step towards the really big 4-0.

But hey...thanks to a touching email from my long-lost pal Tammy (currently residing south of the equator in Oz), I realize I'm very lucky that someone actually 1) remembered my birthday and 2) took the time to try and pull something together (even though the original, fabulous plans, did not come to pass).

Thanks Tammy...and hope you have a better birthday this year (or next, if it already passed...as I suspect it did if memory serves) than you have in the past.
