35

I turned 35 on August 2 and it was very much just another day!! I had taken a long weekend off from work (Thursday through Monday) and Mike took the Thursday and Friday off as well. My birthday started off with a trip to the DMV...exactly what I wanted to do!! My license was expiring that day so I had to go to get it renewed. Our state only allows you to renew online once then the next time you have to make the trip into the office...then the next time you can renew online, and so on. We got their early...a lesson a remember my mom teaching me!! I am not a morning person by any stretch of the imagination, but I will get up super early if necessary to avoid the long wait a the DMV!! When all was said and done, we left about an hour after we arrive...including the time we waited outside for the office to open!! From there we headed to renew my car plates...because in FL they can't make it easy and let us do both of these at the DMV...nope there is a separate tax office for the car tags!! Thankfully, the wait there was only about 5 minutes!! From there we headed to the gym, because even on my birthday it was important for me to get in my workout. We kept it short and sweet though...only about 35 minutes of cardio.

After a bit of rest and opening Mike's gift (roller skates!!!) we headed out to see an afternoon movie...2 Guns. It was actually pretty darn good!! We laughed quite a bit!! We hadn't been to a movie on opening day in a LONG time. In fact the last time I remember doing that it was for Star Wars Episode 3!! After the movie we went to an early dinner at Hagan O'Reilly's. Love this place so it was great to visit on my birthday!! We didn't tell anyone that's why we were there so there was no singing or craziness like that!! I did enjoy a Guinness though and my usual fish & chips...so it was perfect!! We did pick up an ice cream cake from Cold Stone Creamery too, so I could have a candle to blow out...and therefore a wish to make!!

It was a great day and didn't feel any different from the day before!! I'm hoping to be back tomorrow with a crafty project to share so until then, thanks for stopping by!
