Happy Birthday, to me!

Boy it was nice taking a hot shower this morning, I am really appreciating having water again.  Vera and I decided to go out for a birthday breakfast at Shari's.  
I had their Cinnama-Sation Platter Style breakfast which is bacon, sausage, eggs, hash browns and a cinnamon roll sliced in two, dipped in batter and fried.  Then it is topped with pecans, caramel syrup with whipped cream on top.  It was great, but I only got one bite of the cinnamon roll before I was full, so we got a take out box.  Vera suggested going shopping for a present at Harbor Freight afterwards, that is a great guy place, so naturally I agreed.
I went up and down every isle and spent an hour and a half in there, leaving with a couple of sacks of small items and a set of scaffolding.  On the way to Costco from there, Barry called to wish me a Happy Birthday, since I was driving, Vera told him I would call when we got to Costco.  We had a nice visit before heading into Costco.
We were barely in the door before I spotted an LED porch lite I wanted.  We picked up a few more things and headed for home.  Right after we got home, Cathy stopped by to wish me Happy Birthday, we got to show her our new cabinets.  I assembled the light and put it up after Cathy left, it looks good and is pretty bright.  Dianne and Steve stopped by and wished me a Happy Birthday a little later.  I got to show them how the light worked, but Steve said it would be kind of awkward holding my hand over the photocell every time I wanted the light on.  We got a good laugh out of that. 
This evening we met Bev, Josh, Mik and James at the El Ranchero for a dinner to celebrate Bev's and my birthdays.  We had a great time, with lots of story telling and laughter.  Thanks for treating us Mik!
