Happy (34th) Birthday To Me

It's that time again. Another year, come and gone. You know what, though? I'm still pretty happy with my little life. I am grateful for so many wonderful people and circumstances that have blessed my life this year. So I don't have EVERYTHING that I want. Eh. I guess if I did that would be it, right. Game over. Nothing left to work towards. I'm feeling pretty zen today. It's sunny and warm outside. People who love me will wish me a beautiful birthday this weekend. My daughter has learned to sing

"Happy Birthday, you. Happy Birthday, you. Happy Birthday, my mommy, Happy Birthday, you. Fffooooooooo!! (that's the blowing out the candle noise)"

and has been singing it to me for the last few days.

I have another beautiful weekend planned. As I reminded you all last year it is springy and wonderful in Upstate NY this weekend, as it always is on my SPRING birthday (the link is evidence of me in flip-flops on March 7th last year. And further proof.) This year we shall surely try to make it to the St. Patrick's Day Parade (some...unfortunate...events prevented us from going last year. This year I'll have two sets of car keys.) So, Happy Birthday to me, and Happy Spring to you. Enjoy it for me :)
