Happy Birthday to me!

Yep, today i am 30!
I was worried for a while there that it wasn't going to be a special day. I had awesome phone calls and texts and the kids at my practicum sung happy birthday before eating a slice of cake I had made.

I was expecting the evening to be a typical Thursday, guitar practice for son, husband at soccer practice, cooking own dinner...well, i was surprised!
('Cos, even at 30 a birthday isn't a birthday without a present, or a cake!)

Soccer was cancelled, hubby had put a butter chicken in the crock pot. Then about two bites into it, my son pulls out a present....
A Kindle Touch!!


I plugged it in to charge straight away, and am already browsing the Amazon Kindle store for books!

And after the chicken, out came a beautiful Strawberry Fields Cake from the local CheeseCake Shop! Yum.

I'm back!...I think

This morning i woke up with a burning urge to write.
This has been missing this year, since my sore neck resulting in the horror of migraines, i haven't wanted to write anything.
Ad i've felt so guilty about it. I mean i consider myself a writer, among other things, but i haven't had the urge to write!
I was so excited to open one of my WIP's and delighted when all the joy came flooding back.
So, even though i'm back to fighting fit, and one week into my five week practicum for my ECE degree, i am back to writing! Even if it's a few words or lines, i'm going to be calling myself a writer again.

What have you all been up to? I've tried to visit blogs, but haven't seen as many i used to...
