Happy Birthday!

To me, that is. And to celebrate my birthday- I'm having a sale at TDC, and posting this little freebie here:

It's only available as a freebie for a few hours. I'll be killing the links in three hours- so, get the freebie now, while you can.

*Download Removed- thank you for stopping by! The Beach Bum paper pack, kit, and element pack will be available at TDC next week!*

Do I even need to say it? Please don't share this- as after I've removed the download link, I will be uploading it to TDC and the only way to get this kit will be to buy it after next week.



So- on to other, more important stuff. It's my birthday! And it was almost ruined by my dick of a husband (ooo- did I just say that?). I'm sorry that I'm not psychic and didn't KNOW that the dog pooped in the laundry room. The only time that I was in the laundry room this morning was when I let Rosie out and back in. Instead of calmly asking for the paper towels in order to clean it up, he proceeded to yell about how disgusting it was. Gee, ya think? Of course it's disgusting! It's dog poop! And it wasn't just that he was yelling- it's that he was yelling at me about it. As if I didn't let Rosie out this morning (which I did- but it was raining outside and Rosie has this thing about rain- she doesn't like it). So it was a not so wonderful start. I've just decided that the best thing to do would be to ignore him and get on with my day.

Which is exactly what it is- MY DAY. I'm making an apple cake with caramel sauce this afternoon- yummy. It's been a good birthday (minus the part about Mike freaking out of over dog poop). I got a iPod Nano from Mike, a bread machine and an electric skillet from my parents. And yes, I'm happy with my gifts. I asked my mom for one or the other, and she bought them both (I love my mom). I've decided that I'm only doing the bare minimum around here- no housework on my birthday (except what needs to be done- funny how people are so picky about clean underwear!).

I've been reading some good books lately. I read The Da Vinci Code over the weekend (good book), and then read The sacrifice by Barbara Lewis in two days, and am now reading The Prodigal (also by Lewis). I'm loving this series, and am kinda sad that once I've read The Prodigal, I'll only have one more book to read. My mom and I are reading them- she buys the books, reads them, then shares them with me. The series starts with The Covenant, then there's The Betrayal, then The sacrifice, The Prodigal, and The Revelation. The series is about an Amish family, set the late forties/early fifties. It's all that I can do to keep from curling up in bed and reading The Prodigal in one day (which is what I did with The Betrayal).

Otherwise- that's it. Enjoy your free kit, and happy birthday to me!

*Edited* I should have taken the link down a half hour ago, but decided to leave it up for another few hours because at least one person was having problems downloading. The link will be removed at 5pm Central. :)
