I don’t believe in setting unrealistic expectations for myself. That being said, not everyone is as socially bored as I am. I don’t deny the fact that I have much more free time than most women my age (mainly because of the lack of little ones running around our house). Other than Lucy, our morbidly obese feline, my schedule is pretty free. I attribute this to not making plans. I hate having plans. Am I the only grown woman who makes plans hoping they get cancelled? If I have something to do, inevitably it comes down to the day and I’m hoping my plans are cancelled so I can stay in pajamas. I am hardly ever disappointed when my plans fall through. Unless it’s a vacation. Then I cry.

This year, I decided to make an effort to remember to send each and every one of our close friends/family a birthday card. This isn’t as easy (or cheap) as it seems. To save money, I make a lot of my cards. But again, I have the time. So for all of you out there that cannot imagine leading as boring of a life as me, there is something out there for you, I promise.

Cheryl’s cookies are good alone, but this adorable little Birthday Cookie box is perfect! For $5 flat, you can have this Birthday Cake Cookie Card delivered to your friends or family. They also have many other occasions for the same flat rate: Get Well, Congratulations, New Baby, etc. I’ve ordered them several times for friends and have always been happy with the order. Who doesn’t want a cookie card!?
