A person needs to have a 50th birthday everyday. My day started out normal, but when I got to work the celebration began. One of my co-workers had baked a cake for me. It was originally supposed to be a surprise, but as I was getting water for my coffee pot, she was coming out the elevator and we met.
I have to let you know about the cake deal. Last year for my birthday I did not get a cake at all. I was miffed at the two people who I live with that they didn't take the time to make or get a cake. I always make sure that Jennifer gets her ice cream cake from Dairy Queen and that Gary gets his lemon merangue pie. The least they could do was have a chocolate cake for me. Gary works at a store with a bakery so there really isn't an excuse.
At the courthouse we had cake in the morning, I got some cards and my friend Dulcie made me a pair of earrings that she beaded and a card. Dulcie also made the cake. I got a card from my boss and a card from the commissioners. It must be a new thing with them to give employees a birthday card because Sandy (my boss) got one too. Sandy came in and she bought a carmel pecan roll and a cinnamon roll from the bakery which we shared.
I had a HOG Officer meeting right after work, so made my way to Billings. The guys surprised me with a cake at the meeting. Nothing like beer and cake. It was a nice surprise.
When I got home from the meeting there was a cake from Gary on the table. He didn't forget after all. It was a chocolate cake (my favorite) and he even had it decorated.
I managed to get three cakes in all yesterday. Yep, a person needs a 50th birthday everyday.
