I used to hate birthdays. Okay, maybe not hate, but dread them. Perhaps it was because I was getting older. I'm not in denial, I don't mind getting older. In fact, life is getting sweeter as time goes on and if I pass tomorrow, I have no regrets!
One thing I've decided in the past few years, however, is that I will not work on my birthday. No one should spend the day at work on their birthday. So I call in "well" for the day. JP and I play hookey as we celebrate our birthdays together. We may take in a movie, or lunch, a pedicure or massage, or all of the above. Today he's going to bake me an apple pie too!
So, while I cannot partake in the bubbly, I lift my glass to each of you who have touched my life and say... Carpe Diem!! I hope to celebrate many, many more with you. I am blessed.
And just for a little fun... because, of course, it's all about me... here's a YouTube flashback!
