Birthday!

First I want to thank everyone who said Happy Birthday to me! My phone blew up all day with Facebook messages as well as phone calls. It's awesome to feel so important for a day! Of course our day started out with our landlord here at 7:30am. We moved all our furniture out of the downstairs and they were on their way. Jeff and I didn't know what to do at first. We sure as hell didn't want to be stuck upstairs all day. So our journey began. Jeff and I went over to the South Windemere section of West Ashley and did a little shopping. We enjoyed a wonderful bloody mary at Med Bistro. I have a co-worker who works there so it was good to stop in and say hello. 

We then proceeded to have lunch. We came back to the house to check on the progress (still a lot to be done) and picked up Matty. There are a ton of places around Charleston that welcomes dogs. So we went to D.D. Peckers for a mid afternoon lunch and drinks. 

On the back patio of D.D. Peckers is a Great deck, tons of seating, and an awesome atmosphere. We didn't even keep Matty on a leash. She was so good. Everyone loved her. They even brought out a dog bowl for her and treats! 

On the way home from lunch I decided that I want to get some feather extensions. I received some money from Jeff's Parents and Grandma for my bday. What better way to spend it! I actually had three different pieces put in. I was told that they last 6 months. So it should be fun!

Since they were still working on the floor when we returned we decided to take a dip in the pool. It's awesome being members of the country club. It was so refreshing to be in that pool. 

By the time we got home we helped put the furniture back in the house and immediately started getting ready for dinner. During our shopping trip in the morning we both got new outfits for tonight's festivities. We went to Wild Olive. It is our favorite restaurant. It's located in John's Island. The greatest part of this place is most of their products are from local farmers around the area. So it's cool that as they are telling you about their menu they call off where all different products come from. 

Both of our meals were amazing. Please, if you ever come to Charleston - GO TO WILD OLIVE! This place has never let us down and we have always tried something new while there. 

In the end, I had a WONDERFUL Birthday! Thank you to Jeff who took me here there and everywhere during the day. 

Ok, I know you have to look at it sideways (not technologically smart enough to fix this problem) but our floors look GREAT. They are a darker color then before. It was great to come home from dinner with everything put back in place and a note that read "Happy Birthday" from our landlord! It's great to finally have our house back to normal. Hell, it's great to finally sit on my own couch and watch TV instead of being locked in my bedroom.
