Our office closed early today because the town it is in experienced a black out. At first we weren’t sure if it was just our end of town so I hopped in the car and ran an errand. Nope whole town with no power. Well, except for the time and temp sign at one bank. Go figure. Cruising downtown to the post office, all the Main Street shop owners and goers were on the sidewalk scratching their heads. First amazing event I experienced in the town was when Subway got new booths a few years ago. I think there are 4 stop lights. There’s something to be said for a small town.
So, after an afternoon of errand catching up and girl talk we found our way home. I wasn’t sure what was on my agenda for the evening until Olivia pulled me by the hand into my office and informed me we were having my birthday party (stop back by in July to wish me a happy one!) Then she asked, “Did you bring the cake?” I suppose it’s a good thing I picked up an angel food cake at the grocery store otherwise I would have ruined the party.
Gotta run…time to sing.

You just made me realize that we don’t have any stoplights in our little town…whoa.
Happy pre-birthday - Olivia sure knows how to celebrate!
