Why Have a Birth-day When You Can Have a Birth-Week

Posted by Libby's Pink Vanity at 3/20/2011 10:24:00 AM

One year, I was in a terrible place in my life right at my birthday. I was bemoaning the fact to a friend and she gave me some great advise. She said "Do not hinge everything you want on one day. You need to make it a 'birthday week'." What a great way to look at it!

This year I'm having a great birthday week as my sister, from Dallas, is visiting me. We are seeing the sites of Orlando and Daytona Beach and, have a really great time. Today, we are going to Downtown Disney.

And so, the purpose of my post is to let you know why I haven't done a review since Thursday. I'll be right back soon. :) I have on a neon, bright, pink polish that I'm eager to share with you. Hint: It's heavenly. Hee hee!

These are photos of flowers that are blooming in my backyard. I love that my birthday is on the first day of Spring!!!!

I took these in a doctor's parking lot...

I'm taking my camera with me to Disney and should get some beautiful flower photos there too.

Thanks so much for being a follower and a reader. You all mean so much to me and make blogging not only fun but also a great community to be a part of. :D

I have a "birth-month". I won't do something every single day, but I do celebrate all month long. :D
