Birthday continued

Arrived home to two more wonderful gifts ... landmark birthdays are the best. Not only because I am still alive to experience them -- something that never ceases to amaze me considering how I lived parts of my life -- but now I get more and more discounts wherever I go. Love those senior deals.

The first gift I received on arrival (literally) was my new iPad2 ... I always loved (and still do) my little iPod Touch, which I carry around everywhere I go. Now I have a larger version of that which can do more than my little iPod. Another learning curve for me - apparently good for my ol' brain and I love it, love it, love it.

This iPad comes complete with a multi-use cover. It not only covers the screen, puts the iPad to sleep when closed and automatically wakens it when open, but folds back into two difference iPad stands. And it is pretty in pink too.

My 2nd gift I picked up in the mail the next day. A gift certificate to a local spa. Oh, how I need to be pampered. So, decided that as it is spring, and I have at least a good week's work (or two) cleaning up the yard and rock garden and planting my garden, I will certainly be ready for my manicure and why not throw in a pedicure and possibly a facial. They will have their work cut out for them after I complete all that outside work. Can't wait.
