13 years ago today, right about now, I was giving birth to my sweet DD. hard to believe time has gone by so fast!

I thought I was going to have to purchase a cake, but my mom called me last night and wants to take us all out to lunch for DD birthday and she is going to go by INgles and get a small cake. So not only do I not have to buy a cake, I get a free lunch too!

I answered my boss's email today. I let him know that I didn't think it was possible to get the invoice out last week and why. HOpefully he won't take offense to me standing up for myself a little bit. This has come easier to me the older I get. I used to never stand up for myself. My self esteem was very low. But it is getting better. Still have self esteem issues(which come from being 70 pounds overweight) but I tend to stand up for myself more. So that is a start. But I have an awesome job with an awesome boss(most of the time) and I really don't want to do anything to screw it up. I guess I feel that by stating the facts as to why the invoice didn't go out I am making excuses. I know I shouldn't feel that way, but I do. SO hopefully he doesn't see it as making excuses.
