Glad that you liked your birthday song because IF YOU ONLY KNEW girlfriend how much TROUBLE I had learning how to embed that thing in my BLOG!! BUT the good thing is that I KNOW HOW NOW!! When I heard that I knew that I was going to get that thing done or know just WHY...THEN My internet went down and I was really having myself a bad bad time!! I was on the phone to bellsouth for 2 hours!! I was really getting frustrated!! I had promised Daisy that I would get my list out there on Monday along with hers and no internet!! FINALLY after 2 hours and being very frustrated I got one of our computers to work..My laptop is still down!! boo hoo!! So I am so thrilled that you like your "Birthday Song" Thanks! Have a very Special DAY!!

By Blogger It's a FLIP-FLOP World, at 9/04/2007 12:20 PM  

You know, I think Daisy's little confetti cannon fiasco was all a ruse to get the "firemen" to the party.

Is that Beckie's cake you have there? Good stuff, huh?

By Blogger Barbara, at 9/04/2007 12:59 PM
