I missed my own birthday thread because we were in St. Augustine Florida having sooooooooo much fun... and the trip was a birthday present. I got to put samdarella in one of the oldest jail cells in the oldest city. We took the trolley tour like typical tourists, drank from the Fountain of Youth, took a bunch of pictures, went shopping and dined at the finest restaurants.

Samdarella is so hilarious... So it's late in the day, we have walked miles and her feet are tired, as am I. We are heading back to the car and pass by a really nice jewelry she never noticed before. I point out the fact that it is the only shop I have seen with really high quality stuff and suddenly her feet don't hurt and she is a ball of energy. She is so energetic, it takes 2 sales girls to assist her. We are buying stuff in sets for different outfits, red, white... bracelet, earrings, necklace etc.

We had a half dozen pieces of jewelry, cashed out and hit the street. Now she is exhausted again and we continue to the car until . . . a block later we pass the dress shop! Suddenly, she is a ball of energy and her feet don't hurt.... meanwhile, she is killing me and there is no "husband chair" in the dress shop for me to sit in. LMAO I should have stashed some of that water from the Fountain of Youth. I don't think I drank enough of it. Walking for miles on the shopping trips left me a bit tired, but we had so much fun and I got 2 new hats among other things. I also learned that shopping cures tiredness and foot pain in women.

Thank you for the birthday thread.
