Happy Birthday to Me - 44 Memorable Events/Pictures

Today is my birthday ... all I want is BLOG traffic!  LOL


Or LIKES on my Eagle Nest Facebook page.


But I hate sounding greedy.



No really, I could use a new pair of shoes.  I glanced down my Amazon Wish List, and was surprised and amused, there wasn't much there for "just me" - a new timer (wait, that's for school), a greenhouse, a label maker, Hey Tom Dryer Kit, essential oils, books for school, gadgets for the kitchen ... oh ... Highlighters!  I love pens and highlighters and such, so much so that the Ref usually buys me new pens (or candles) rather than flowers.


I'm 44 today .. and I had planned on making a blog post of 44 things lists ... but life happens, and I didn't have time.  So  how about 44 favorite pictures/memories?  I uploaded 81 pictures last night.

This is going to be quite a HUGE challenge ...
