early gifts incoming for the birthday girl

Mar 15, 2024

Scott called me yesterday snickering before I even said ‘hello.’ He had a digital delivery for my birthday and asked if he could send it early. He did and I laughed. If you want to laugh too, you can see my surprise on shelleyerwin.com at this link.

And then, Katie made me cry…

The note included with the spring bouquet let me know she loves me and she’s sorry she can’t be here for my birthday. 😔

The flowers are lovely. Sherry delivered them and always does an amazing job. We took our obligatory ‘my birthday selfie’ even though I slept exactly 2 hours and 42 minutes last night and look even worse than my usual self. (But not as bad as my driver’s license photo.)

Now you know: During World War 2, any Allied Prisoner of War in a German camp could write to Rolex and request a wrist watch without immediate payment. Rolex would send them a watch and save the bill for after the war.
