It’s my birthday.

I’m 47.

My grade partner sent out this AWFUL picture of me in my homecoming costume as a reminder to the 7th and 8th graders.

Yet, it’s a good day. I found one of the birthday presents my wife bought me, steel toes rubber boots. Now, you may not be impressed, but now, instead of putting on my work boots going to move heifers, I can slip these on and away I go! 🙂

The other present, she calls me Friday and says, “Do you want to know what your present is?” (Silly question!) “Can you help me get it out of car?” (Sweet) It was an 8th foot aluminum ladder. Again, you may not be impressed, but I’ve wanted a ladder for a while now.

Getting older, the gifts aren’t quite as fun. My wife was very apologetic about what she got me. Sometimes, it’s fact I feel loved that’s the gift.
Now, chocolate cake and ice cream await me when I get home! 🙂

Oh, man, I love practical gifts. Both the boots and the ladder would have me ecstatic if they were things I’ve been wanting for a long time. Happy birthday!

The ladder I wasn’t thinking about, but the boots were a surprise! I needed a new pair, but to have them steel toes, that was awesome! Thanks for stopping by! 🙂

Happy Birthday to you!…and many more!! Steel toes are a must on the farm…Smart wife! 🙂 Hope you enjoy that chocolate cake and ice cream and a relaxing evening! BTW…Iowa’s Linn Mar School District Superintendent was hired down here in Texas to be our new superintendent. Do you know of that district? Have a great evening 🙂

Linn Mar is a district about 90 minutes south of us, so I am familiar with it. Great school with some marvelous facilities! And yes, steel toes are a must, but these are rubber boots too, which means I can just slip them on! Very awesome! 😀
