Hi ho, MMMLogerinos!

The DH and I have August birthdays five days apart, but he's Virgo and I'm Leo. A strange combination, you say? Maybe, but it works for us, usually. This morning he got up with the birds as usual and brought me a cup of Earl Gray. He announced that he was going out for breakfast. The DH loves to get up in the best part of the day--the crack of dawn--and go out for breakfast. He went alone today. I just called to sing our usual happy birthday song and discovered that he had not yet had breakfast. Typical Virgo that he is, he got to work and forgot all about breakfast. So he's taking himself out for a mid-morning latte.

We tend to do the lump birthday/anniversary gifts as in, let's take this big Med cruise for our birthdays and anniversary this year and make it count for the next eighty-two years. Then the next year rolls around with some other lump gift idea I come up with. Besides, we already did the personalized gifty thing with a trip through Costco where we availed ourselves of a new electric shaver and Henckels knife set. Not sure which is for whom, though the DH will probably use the shaver more than I because those knives are pretty darned sharp . . .

mmmmmmmmmmmmmelinda, wishing the DH many, many more happy birthdays.
