Happy Belated birthday! The fabric store is my favorite therapy (next to my sewing machine). :-)

Happy Belated Birthday Jamie. Sorry you had a bad day, but I love the fabrics you gave yourself. I'm sure you will do something really neat with them.

My birthday is in the beginning of Jan., and it has always seemed like a big bother to the hubby and kids. So, I started (many years ago) buying what I really wanted for me. Then, I had a breast cancer episode, and started getting my mammogram every Jan. for my birthday. What better gift than a negative reading.

Well, seems like my presents to me are getting bigger and better. This year, I purchased 4 30" base cabinets and hired a carpenter to put a top on them for my new cutting table. I have lots of storage underneath, and 80" of top to play on! Can't imagine next year.

So, things can get better for all of us born in Jan. We just have to make it better for us.

Wow you guys are just amazing! That you all so much...I couldn't imagine a more wonderful bunch of people.....
Well I got absolutly nothing for Christmas too! But atleast there wasnt fighting and hours of making me feel bad! To be honest with you, he handed me my ring back last night, and told me to go find someone else, or something else that makes me happy...and that all I do is hurt him, and take stabs at him...and blah blah blah....I spent the day using my anger to create beautiful peices of art....
I have a very small fabric stash...I only have maybe 7 yards in total of different varieties....and I would love to buy myself a nice gift, unfortunatly all my money goes to groceries and the kids....
Happy belated B day Charvan...mammograms are a must...I just had mine a few months ago...and had to have surgery to get a cyst removed...

Dancing needle, I couldnt agree more about making your own day special...some times it is a must :) we make our own happiness, and we make our own destinies.

LOL mimi...25 :) Thats great..I get younger and younger each year!! I tried to teach my kids how to make every day special..but they are well brats! I love them anyways, but they didn't even make me a card.

Treat yourself good! You are worth it! Even when I felt as if the whole world hated me, I always knew that the Lord loved me more than I could ever know. I hope you feel His love giving you a big hug for your birthday!!!
