just hang on.....

...the weekend is here!

HORAAAAY!

It's getting cold here so we are bundled up and have just put the heat on!

It was 30 degrees on the thermometer this morning...brrrr.

I'll stay warm in a cozy sweater

  ( I stocked up on one in every color from here)

and of course, a hot Starbucks...

how about you?

Do you have any special plans for the weekend?

Well, we will be buying a new leaf blower, now, doesn't that sound fun?????

Hello 37

Well, it's here...my birthday, or birthday month as my husband likes to say...

Ok, so I like to celebrate...

what's wrong with that???

 It's always been a special day for me...

I've always thought about my birthday in a happy way...

It's a day to feel special, eat pink cupcakes for breakfast, truffles for dessert, maybe take a hot bubble bath, definitely snooze a bit longer, and

have lunch with someone you love... I'm having lunch with my mom today!

Lucky me!

 It's a day to SHINE!

and celebrate life, be thankful and grateful and hopeful for the future!

I'm celebrating and embracing my age today...I am so glad to be ALIVE!

Maybe it's your birthday, or someone you love is celebrating their special day...

make a wish and blow out the candles! And wish them happiness!

And please check out this wonderful blog post by Julia Christie...

It's a great post about age, and embracing our 'outer child'

and I have printed it out and have it hanging on my desk!

So today, even though I am one year older, I am going to have dessert for breakfast, do cartwheels on my front lawn, swing on a swing, play hide and go seek, color with chalk on the driveway,

and simply....enjoy the day!

I hope you enjoy your day, too!
