So, another year older

October 15, 2013 by Jen

My birthday dress.

The older I get the quicker the birthdays come around. One minute it’s six months away, and the next minute it’s my birthday. Where did that time go?

A couple of fellow Librans thought it would be a good idea to go to a Mexican restaurant that’s pretty good so between us we got about 20 people together to have a Luscious Libran celebration.

The photo above is of me pre Luscious Libran dinner wearing my two day early birthday present dress that The Surfer got for me.

You could say he has good taste or you could say that I give good hints. By the way, it’s from Surface Art incase you’re wondering. It’s not something I would have normally bought for myself because I rarely spend that much on a dress but for The Surfer and my sisters chipping in to help out it was achievable.

And my actual birthday coincided with the first day back of the school term which also coincided with a pupil-free day. So mother and son both had the day off to laze around a bit, see a very kiddy movie – Turbo – and go out for dinner with my sister.

I actually have another birthday present I’m trying out but will talk more about that if all goes well in a couple of weeks.

    Happy birthday!! Gorgeous dress – there is always something about a red dress that makes you smile.

      I only started wearing red a bit in the last few years. Don’t know what I’ve been missing all this time.

    At first glance, I thought you’d written “A couple of fellow Librarians” 🙂

      Ha ha. Librarian? Not I, although I do love books.
