The end of the two week birthday

squirrel nut crackers

This marvelous little creature was discovered and procured from a little shop somewhere between here and rio vista last weekend. It’s he wonderful? He cracks nuts in his mouth when you move his tail. Looks like there’s going to be a lot more nut eating around here. When I was a kid, I loved cracking nuts so much. I would crack them all night long, all different kinds. despite the fact that I only liked peanuts.  I’ve definitely gotten over that. I like just about any kind of nut there is. The holidays mean nuts, and this boy better get cracking.

So, I firmly believe that your birthday should last for two weeks, and so mine has. Today I got a card from Tom’s mom and dad, so sweet and wonderful. I’m sad to put another birthday season to rest but looking forward to 37. Seems like it’s going to be action packed. Thanks for making my birthday a special one. Come over and crack some nuts with me.
