30th birthday

If any of you are considering getting me a pressie for my big 3-0 birthday on February 17th, I've compiled a pic of a bunch of Willow Tree figurines I'd like to get for my collection. Really, I am just hinting to my mother. LOL The main ones I want are the 3 blessings - Peace, Love & Joy, but I'm hoping Barry will get those for me. (or maybe I'll get them for myself on eBay. ) :)

My MIL said she is buying me paint for my birthday because I got enough stuff for Christmas. LOL That is fine with me since we've been trying to get our living room painted since we moved into this house almost 3.5 years ago and somehow we always spend the money on other things. I told her the only way we are going to get the paint is if she actually buys it and not just gives me money towards it. :)

I'm not expecting much for my birthday since I haven't had a special one since I was a kid. I don't even want a cake. Pie would be better. :) I'm not freaking out over turning 30 though. It's just another number. I know I won't be in my 20's forever (just for a little over 5 weeks really) LOL and I know I'm closer to 30 now than 29, so there's not a big deal! I think for once I would like my hubby to pay some special attention to me though. He kind of rolled his eyes when I told him I had the flu. Like it was such an inconvenience to him for me to be sick. I still had to look after the kids all day! Anyway, I digress. I'm not turing this post into a rant about men. LOL
