Wanted to wish you a happy birthday my friend ( ... and sometimes antagonist and nemesis!:ha: )
So , how does it feel to be a year older? .... any gray hairs this morning..... a few new wrinkles maybe?
Hope you have a wonderful day and I know everyone else here does too. Thanks for all you do here, it's always nice to see what you're up to.

Gosh thanks, you guys!!! :waving:
Thank you too for editing my age Bob...I could have killed you for posting it. :eek:
JaNan, just forget you saw it because I'm 29 forever!!! :08:
I thought I'd share some of my plans...
Today I'm going out for Chinese lunch with my mom at my favorite Chinese restaurant. Then likely
shopping. :D
Tonight I think my girlfriends will show up and will want to take me out for a birthday drink (or two :ha:), but not sure of thier plans for me just yet. My one girlfriend called last night and was acting pretty secretive.
Here's my dairy queen ice cream cake, although it got slightly smudged...

My aunt from Nova Scotia called me early this morning and we chatted for a half hour. It was so nice. She sang happy birthday to me! She's totally into gardening like me.
Here are the gifts I bought myself for my birthday...

Anyway thanks for the thread and I'll be sure to pop back in a little later...

Woops and by the way JaNan...
Thank you for that adorable email birthday card you sent this morning with the bird whistling happy birthday! That was just too cute. I'd love to teach Henry that.
Gotta go get ready but be back later on...

I'm nearly tearing up...you guys are all just so nice! :)
Thank you so much for your kind birthday wishes, everyone. So nice to see I have some friends here that posted in my b-day thread. ;)
Charles, that is really very nice of you! :D
Cory, it's wonderful to 'see' you again! :08: You must come back and post with us soon.
Howard, you really are a sweetheart, and thanks a lot for your post as well. :o
Joan and Dean...thank you also. :waving:
Ok I tried to snap some discreet fast shots of the Chinese food my mom & I had for lunch today...
http://i375.photobucket.com/albums/oo193/hollyberrylady08/2nd%20album/DSC02089.jpg
It was delicious!

Good Lord, I'm stuffed!

The girls are coming over at 8 to celebrate part two of my birthday. :goteam: I'll likely be up real late tonight. Might post later tonight.
Met this little fella at the petstore today...
http://i375.photobucket.com/albums/oo193/hollyberrylady08/2nd%20album/DSC02100.jpg
I'll post shots of whatever my girlfriends end up bringing me that's a "surprise" I'm told.
Have a good evening everyone, and thank you all again for your thoughtful birthday wishes and for taking the time to stop and post in my thread.
Thanks Bob, for starting it. ;)
Chat soon...

Wow, I can't believe how nice you guys are! :waving:
A gazillion thank yous for such great posts and thoughtful inspiring words. I sure appreciate it and hope you guys know it. ;)
Speaking of appreciation...
Thanks for the phone call earlier tonight, Bob! :nanablowskisses:
It was sure nice chatting with you...about all the grey hair you've got coming in! :ha:
No but seriously, thanks for the call. I was jealous to hear about your new dwarf apple trees. Why you! http://i375.photobucket.com/albums/oo193/hollyberrylady08/2nd%20album/emo2.gif
Ok everyone, here's a laugh...
So you remember the small heart shaped cake I posted earlier in this thread...I chose the smaller one for my mom and I to share so I could enjoy a couple pieces of cake, but not pack on a bunch of extra unwanted weight. Plus I knew I was going out for Chinese food...
So anyway, I'll say I was surprised when my girlfriends showed up with the hugest friggin' cake ever...another heart shaped ice cream cake from Dairy Queen!!! :eek:
http://i375.photobucket.com/albums/oo193/hollyberrylady08/2nd%20album/DSC02117.jpg
They laughed when I showed them the one I already had! The only difference was theirs read "Sherr" and mine read "Sherry". I now have a freezer full of ice cream cake and they wouldn't even take any home with them...and my mom has had enough! :eek:
Looks like I'll be eating cake until next week!
I just hope I don't look like a cake, come Spring!!! :ha:
Pretty cute one though, and colorful. :D
The other part of their gift is illegal and cannot be mentioned nor shown here! :ha:
Here's a small gift I can show though...
http://i375.photobucket.com/albums/oo193/hollyberrylady08/2nd%20album/DSC02119.jpg
Had a pretty good night...we went out for a birthday toast, but will likely do our real celebrating this weekend. Sucks when birthdays fall through the week.
The truth is I've turned 29 several times over, but I like to imagine that I still am and will be forever! :ha:
Thanks for the great thread you guys. So cool that you thought of me like this. ;)
Oh and I forgot to mention another thing I did today...had tea my mom made and served me in her bone china...

Oh, honey, I'm sorry I didn't post on the day of your birthday celebration.
Still though, Holly,

may I say this at least 100 times in the future. :lurk:

No problem Jonn...better late than never. ;) At least you bothered to post at all. Thank you. :bananas_b
Jack...
Too hilarious! :ha:
You know, when I was little I used to love the smurfs and would watch them every Saturday morning without fail. I don't hate you, so don't worry. It actually brought back some very pleasant childhood memories for me, so thanks. ;)
Cool that you finally posted. I was wondering what was up with that...since we're such great pals and all. http://i375.photobucket.com/albums/oo193/hollyberrylady08/2nd%20album/emo1.gif
Well, I'm officially another year older...but no wrinkles just yet. I actually still get ID'ed so I look a lot younger than I am. 29 forever!
Does anyone want some ice cream cake? I could send it on dry ice! :ha: I just can't believe how much of it I have. It's insane is what it is. I asked my one girlfriend "who buys a cake for one person that meant for 15"?!!! :eek:
Thanks for you late posters. I sure enjoy the warm wishes. :waving:

Yeeeeeah. It was more about that German than those smurfs. :ha: You wouldn't believe it, but at some point that song was hit in Germany.
Germans are very comforting people. ;) :ha:
Btw.: Maybe you get IDed so that those waiters... you meet in bars, restaurants... want to know your name, age and where you live. ;)
The Hollyberry Lady
02-18-2011, 04:19 AM
Too ridiculous Jack, about the address thing. Never thought of that...but I really do look like I'm in my 20's even though I'm in my 30's. Sure not complaining either. ;)
I was actually referring to getting ID'ed at variety stores anyway, trying to buy a lighter or some matches! :ha:
I'd be more worried about being stalked online than in person. There's more whackos on the internet than anywhere else...because they can hide behind their keyboards and harass people. :eek:
Then again, I've known a few weirdos in life too, so you never know.
If you were closer Jack, I'd invite you over for some of this ice cream cake. :D In fact there's enough that everyone in this thread could have some! :ha:
The smurf video really was hilarious, but of course I couldn't understand the song. I just knew it was about enthusiastically wishing me a very happy birthday. I thought it was cute. Neat that I used to love the smurfs too.
Bob tells me he still does and rushes home from work to catch the last half hour each day. http://i375.photobucket.com/albums/oo193/hollyberrylady08/2nd%20album/emo1.gif
So anyway, thanks for the tune Jack. Hilarious that it was a hit though! :eek:

Happy Belated birthday Sherry! Im sorry im late for it =( That cake looks so good! You are so lucky LOL
The Hollyberry Lady
02-18-2011, 01:04 PM
No worries about being late, Cam! ;) Thanks for your post.
Wish I could share the cake with you...I'd give you all of it and be glad to be rid of it! It's delicious but one person can only eat so much of it. I noticed a small zit forming on my forehead this morning and I never get them! :eek: It's from too much sugar! :ha:
Anyway, thanks again Cam, & Everyone! :D
: )
Willow87
02-18-2011, 01:23 PM
You're welcome Sherry. I could probably eat the whole cake LOL. I can be like a bottomless pit sometimes, especially for cakes and pies lol. I gained quite a bit of weight since Thanksgiving lol
The Hollyberry Lady
02-18-2011, 05:39 PM
That's the reason why I bought the smaller cake Cam, was so I wouldn't gain weight...but then my friends show up with a huge honkin' thing fit for a party! It's totally insane. :ha:
I had a slice this afternoon, but it seems like there's still as much as ever. I think it might keep for awhile so I'm gonna take a break from it for a day or two.
Going out tomorrow night to do some more birthday celebrating with the girls. :birthdaynana:
We're gonna go see a live band play and have a couple drinks. :bananas_b
My one girlfriend of course will be there to hit on men. :ha:
Anyway, it's been a pretty good one this year and I've enjoyed it. You guys' posts have really been nice. ;)

I hope you and your friends have an awesome time getting hammered tomorrow night! :D
:nanadrink:
And dont sweat getting ID'd. I get ID'd everywhere I go but I've never been arrested [yet]! :D
The Hollyberry Lady
02-19-2011, 09:31 AM
Too funny, Cory! :ha:
Not really a big drinker so I know I won't be hammered, but might have a couple drinks to
celebrate. :bananas_b
That's the thing...I don't usually get ID'ed going to bars, but buying a lighter or matches for my candles at variety stores, I do! :eek:
It's ridiculous is what it is, but I just laugh and say thank you as I show them my ID. I take it as a total compliment.
So yeah, I'll likely be going out around 8-ish but the girls will show up here much earlier. I've known them both since we were kids so we've been friends for many years. My one friend is man-crazy though and likes to flirt with pretty much...everyone! :ha:
It should be a good night hopefully. I gotta go pick up some stuff at the store this morning, but shouldn't be gone too long. It's a yucky grey day out there, but milder than it's been.
Thanks again for the well wishes, Cam & Cory. :waving:

Sherry; I am a Decent drummer and a bad singer!
Drew
The Hollyberry Lady
02-19-2011, 02:27 PM
It's the opposite for me...I'm a good singer and a terrible drummer! :ha:
So how's this for cool...
I became an aunt at the age of 14, and my young nephew now has a daughter of his own, and she was born just a few days ago, on my birthday!!! :birthdaynana:
How cool is that?! I was shocked to hear the news and thought it was way too amazing that my great niece was born on my birthday. What's even more shocking is that the mother's bithday is the 16th of February too! She had her first baby on her own birthday...and mine too! :eek:
Isn't that way too unbelievable, and a shocking coincidence?! :D Not sure what to make of it, but I like it.
So I went and ran some errands and just got back not too long ago. The girls will be here about 6:30 or 7:00 ish. Think we might go out and grab a bite to eat somewhere before we got to the
bar. :bananas_b

That is "Fascinating," as Spock would say! You guys have a great time and be careful!

I used to love star trek when I was a kid. Not too much for the new ones though. Spock was
too cool! ;)
Ok well thanks, Drew. Hopefully it'll be a good night. I'll let you guys know. I'm not really into bars much, but my one girlfriend always talks us into going. I do like live bands and
concerts however. :08:
Alrighty, well have yourselves a good night and we'll chat again soon...

Chat soon...

Waaayy late but just saw this. Happy belated Bday to a fellow Aquarian...mine was in Jan.!! I'm at an age where I get pissed if they don't ask for my ID ha ha.
I have a sudden craving for ice cream!
The Hollyberry Lady
03-07-2011, 07:24 PM
Hey, thanks Patty! :waving:
Better late than never, I always say. ;)
I suspect your craving has something to do with all the ice cream cake you saw in this thead! :eek:
Enjoy...
