Happy birthday!
That was enough for me to hear during my birthday but my husband's family said we should celebrate it by going to the swimming pool since there will be of us to who will be celebrating birthday in November.
My son's and Inday's is on 9th, mine and Sandra's on 12th. We went to the pool on 7th and they all had a great time. (im finding time to post it here). This was before Imistakenly uploaded the video and thought I have attach the link to be seen.
I used calculator to be sure how old was that day and I can't believe I'm still 28. Haha weird but true. I believed I was 29 because my husband is 30. I thought there is only 1 year gap between our age.
So when the 12th came, I was glad no one was saying happy birthday to me. If not for Facebook, some people would not even know.
I took a selfie for a remembrance on the day I turned 28. I like the light's reflection on my hair and it looks like i have silver hairs. I have been dreaming about that since I was a kid.
On the 13th in the morning, I prepared to make a cake and Czak helped me in mixing. Unfortunately, I put too much baking powder and baking soda in it. I had mistaken the 1/2 tablespoon into 1 teaspoon spoon and the inclusion was 2 and 1/2 each. The cakes's taste is sweet but bitter after a second it touches the tongue so I didn't bring it.
My daughters had been busy outside toobut when I asked them what they did,Aelie showed me the cutest flower bouquet that I have ever received. She made it from the flowers she picked outside, small piece of paper and a glue, but it didn't work so she tied it with an elastic band. She's so creative. I took a photo of it so I could keep it forever.
A memory of last year's surprise popped up on my co workers Facebook timeline and so they prepared few things for me. This is what they told me.
They collected money to buy a cake and balloons, printed letters and decorated it in the wall along with the balloons. They did it in a span of 2 hours because they arrived at 7 and I arrived at 9am.
When came,I already had an idea what they are up to because the recieving guard radioed them that I already arrived. I told them no surprises because I ready brought a cake in q 9th and besides, I dont have money left.
They forced me to get inside the old office where others are they sang for me.
Later, sir Fonsi asked me were will we be having lunch and I said "here" I was so pressured because I dont have cash.. I guess I was too obvious getting tense and Sir Loel said, "you did not tell me it was your birthday, happy birthday! Here's 300 for viand later. I was ashamed but he insisted. I gave it to sir Fonsi because it will be the two of us to buy. He bought 5 boxes medium sized pizza, 6 bottles of 500mL soda and 2 roasted chickens. I transferred some money to my Gcash account so I could pay fo some of
it but sir fonzi insisted to pay with cash.
On way out to buy the food I took photos inntye window's reflection of the sky and the plant. The weather was so great that day. I took my reflection at first but tye I noticed jow tge machine tower looks and then the subject was diverted.
The team posted a thank you to me for lunch and told them it was the higher ranks who bought it.
Because we didn't have knife in the office, we were forbidden to cook or eat there (shhh) we used a metal ruler as knife. Lols.
I had my lunch as fast as I could. I had to finish the crochet to0s ordered my our friend and they need it on the morrow. I had lots of pressure but Im glad it was done. I conscienced because my sister in law's order isn't done yet nor I have the will to finish it. My friend loves their mother and daughter tweenie. We wer even confused on how to price it because she is a friend. So I eneded up on an idea to give her the material cost and she'll be the one to decide on the labor cost. Before the day ended, she sent me P800.00 in my Gcash account.
And here are some shots in the event.
I observed closely how the bakery made this cake. It has a chiffon cake which is not very sweet and was coated by thin icing.
I was amazed by this butter cream icing that was used in writing names and greetings.
The design on top is just simple. A swirl of white icing and half of a sandwich cookie.
These baloons are amazing too. So cute. When I fixed the decors in the afternoon, I kept the baloons and played with it. Baloons this small can be a stress reliever when being makeshift as a stress ball but with a bang when explodes hehe.
I held the baloon. Ltyo remember how small they are.
Later that evening when I was about to go home, I saw a poor cat in the window. I hovered and took a picture of him. Too bad I can't take him home.
Sorry if some photos are. So messed up. Thanks for reading my post and have a grrat day ahead
