Thanks PM, Angiebaby and jp for the bday wishes! Most awesome.
On another note, my H just called and we had the nicest conversation. He asked if I had thought more about where I wanted to go out to dinner. He had suggested a place I like the night before and he said 'but think about it, it is your bday after all'.
So I said the place he suggested sounded awesome and he hadn't been there before, just S and I, and I thought he would like it. Then we asked each other how our days were going. Then he said 'well I thought you might want some dessert, but wasn't sure (since I don't each much sweets)'and 'would I want a cake'. Then he told me how S wanted a german choc cake (his fave, lol) and H told him that well that may not be what your mom wants! after all it is her birthday'. I told him choc or vanilla is fine, but that they would probably end up eating most of it, so not a big deal. He then gave me a play by play of what he had left to do for work and then said he would stop and get the cake and be home.:)
So he is going to bring me home a cake!
We also talked about a guy at his work that is always telling stories to get off of work early. And this guy had told my h and the others about 3 times that he was going to get his emission test done and had to leave early...to 3 diff people on 3 diff days. They gave him heck for it. Then I said 'Gosh, he's telling so many lies he can't keep them all straight! He is clueless!' H kind of went 'Yeah, and got just a smidge quiet, lol. That was interesting.
I am seriously trying not to read anything into this either way, but he is being so nice right now, I hope it isn't just for my birthday! It's a weird feeling to feel freaky about someone you love being nice to you.
Shhhhh! Be vewy, vewy, quiet! - Elmer Fudd

Find your Shambala: a place of peace and happiness.
Pudmuddle, Enjoy the niceness for however long it will last. You might be a lucky one and your h turned a curve on the mlc race track.
Enjoy your birthday...you've earned it! Accept him for who he is today. Keep the expectations at zero!
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
