“Yesterday it was my birthday
I hung one more year on the line
I should be depressed, my life’s a mess
But I’m havin a good time”
– Paul Simon
I truly can’t complain – yes, there are things in my life that are hard, stressful and just daily annoyances. But overall, life is sweet and I’m having a good time.
So, yesterday WAS my birthday…and while I’m SUPER excited to have been given awesome gifts (I’m going to the Peter Gabriel/Sting concert, going shopping for jeans that fit, got beautiful earrings and get to go pick out some great new books and can’t wait to play my new game) it was an incredible day for the non-material gifts I was given.
First, I got to have coffee and catch up with a dear friend, I got a video of Carlos from speech saying “Happy Birthday” and he nailed his R!, got a call from my brother and also from little Lilly that made my day, found out that a friend’s cancer has NOT progressed further, read a ton of messages from friends on Facebook and then got to spend the evening with those closest to me with a delicious dinner and my favorite ice cream cake.
It was a great day. Cheers to another spin around the sun.
