Happy Hump Day! Friday is almost here! Although I’m not too happy about Friday, because I have my annual doctor’s appointment. However, after my appointment I plan to visit the Kupkakery, which is a family owned bakery with the most delicious cupcakes! I’ve been craving one of those cupcakes! (You can see all the different flavors here: Kupkake Flavors.)
Most of you know that my birthday was Tuesday. I woke up to tons of messages from my friends on Facebook. That’s the only day of the year most of those people attempt to talk to me. Every other day is just a day. I hardly spend any time on Facebook any more because it’s so annoying. However, it’s the only way I have to keep up with family.
Let me show you all the great things I got to do for my birthday!!
I got to go grocery shopping in 13 degree weather at 7 a.m.
I got to do laundry.
I got to cut up all the meats and vegetables for a month as well as put the dinner in the crock pot.
I got to clean up cat vomit.
I got to wash all the dishes.
I finally got to eat dinner – London Broil, mashed potatoes, green beans, a roll, tomato slices, and cantaloupe chunks.
My birthday was just the funnest!
I did manage to get in a craft, though: a DIY farmhouse sign for my kitchen using all Dollar Tree items. (Of course!!)
I used an 11×14″ picture frame and a cute plastic table mat. I simply took the frame apart, laid the glass onto the table mat and traced it, then cut around the line. I put the table mat in the frame and put it all back together. I love it! It reminds me of a high end farmhouse sign! The best part is that the whole thing cost me $2!

Belated Happy birthday! Way to go on your birthday :)
Thank you so much!!
Aw...you really made me laugh this morning. I hope your birthday was good...happy birthday a little late. I loved the photos of what you did through the day. It could be most of my days. I even clean up cat hairballs at times....funny. Great post. It's always good to smile and you made me smile and laugh today.
I'm so glad you got a good laugh. ? Thank you so much for the birthday wishes!!
Michelle, happy birthday! Your face, when doing laundry and dishes is priceless and says it all! You totally had me rolling :) I love the sign...so creative!
Thank you!! I guess we don’t get to have “birthdays” when we grow up. ?
Wish you belated Happy Birthday and good luck for tomorrow's appointment. Take care ????
Thank you so much! ?
Happy belated bday Michelle! I love that sign you created. You are very creative. As for birthdays, girl, buy yourself some flowers, sit in a candle lit warm bath, and listen to your favourite music. Chores can wait till next day. (Except cat vomit).
Thank you so much! That sounds like an excellent idea! ?
Beautiful Crafting!
Thank you!!
;)
Birthday's?as we get older is just another day as far as first getting to our chores then having that alone time with a warm soaking bath as someone suggested.
I agree with the impressions you gave of each of them, too funny & so true. Ah, to be a kid again. You did have a happy moment of childhood, in being creative with your diy, ❤it.
Sent a prayer your way for all to have gone well with the must do's of Dr's appts. And a year full of wonderful surprises. Do consider this weekend an extension of your birthday and treat yourself with the precious things you love. Wishing you sun shining days ahead and peace throughout the year ?
Thank you so much!!

Happy belated birthday! I hate cleaning cat throw up! & the dinner you had looks delicious. I love the framed table mat! It does look high-end. :)
Thank you so much!!! ?
I am impressed by your creativity! Happy Belated Birthday ;) The Kupkakery sounds like a heavenly place!
Thank you so much!! ❤️
You are welcome! :)
I'm curious, did you think of that idea yourself? And with the DIY crafts you usually do, are they largely ideas that occur to you, that you see around and add your own touches to, or a combination thereof? I really do enjoy seeing other's creative juices at work. There are infinite possibilities!
Jennifer, I did! Some of my DIYs I see from other places, especially Pinterest and YouTube. I like to add my own touches to them, though. Sometimes I'm in the store and idea just pops in my head and I have to make it asap! ?
