Another Year Older

Yesterday was my birthday and I am happy to say that it was one of my best birthdays ever.. It was an "All about Annie Day " and who doesn't like a day like that. It started out with greetings from my husband and youngest son, then a phone call from my aunt in Germany. Once at work, I started getting phone calls and presents, pretty much the rest of the day. It was so fun.. I got a great ruffly tank top from Mary, a gift card from Linda and Tamara to Kohls, a beautiful rhinestone frame from Loura, a big letter A covered in moss from Trisha, a cinnamon roll the size of a dinner plate, which by the way, I managed to eat all on my own...lets see what else..a cool beaded necklace from my buddy Dani, flowers and cards...fun, fun, fun. My friends from my old office to sing happy birthday to me. Today extended my birthday joy with Timi bringing in 2 cupcakes, tulips and a large bag of individual snack packs of chips!! How funny..I think that was it, along with tons of greetings from other friends and customers. Thanks everyone for making 55 not seem THAT bad. Boy, it sure snuck up on me though. I am trying to convince myself that getting older is OK, but it's a hard sell!!!



Lots of stuff going on ...Timi's show, http://www.comejunkwithus.com/, is this Friday and Saturday at the Knight's of Columbus hall in Bothell. Timi and Amber http://www.tresbirdsphotography.com/ were at the store on Sunday afternoon to take pictures for Timi's show, and Trisha , Wildwhimseyblogspot.com created quite a commotion in her frilly skirt and sunglasses.. Man did she play the part.. it was great fun. We are starting to work on our antique fair on May 15th. http://www.snohomishfaire.com/. We are accepting applications for vendors, so please help me out by spreading the word to get some great vendors and artists in town for our show.
Lots of changes coming up on First street in town. I don't know all the facts and God knows, I don't like to gossip, so I'll get all my facts straight and fill you in on who's moving and who's coming to town. It all sounds good to me. Come and see me at the store..we are bringing in new stuff everyday ..funky home and garden..
That's it, it's been a great week... I'm hoping for more just like it...."All About Annie"
Be Good
Annie
