birthday reflections
Has the Earth stopped spinning on its axis? Are pigs flying? No, then why oh why am I blogging again?
Don’t get used to it. I just have a lot on my mind right now…not that I don’t usually, but I actually have a little time right now…shhh don’t tell the boss!! Ahhh remember the old days when I published my weekly blogs? Usually full of some deep intellectual insight or some deep spiritual meaning. life changing stuff for sure. Ha ha
Now they are just hey this is what is going on. Oh where does the time go? I actually do miss writing my blogs…I miss writing period. Hey remember the old newsletter back from Nashville days..well some of you do…I need to find something where I can do that again. Of course I would need someone else to edit it.
Well as most of you know this past weekend was my birthday. It was a great weekend. I had so much fun and I got to spend time with people I have grown to love and care about.
Friday started off with Karaoke/Dance party! I got to sing probably about six times…trying to remember what they all were! Jason our DJ was awesome of course! On to Saturday..we had a great time with Whirly Jig and Pandora Celtica…singing songs and playing music.
Sunday my Titans didn’t win, but still…they did well. I think might have actually scared Payton a little..he he he he he oh sorry. I digress. Sunday went to tea with a dear friend at the Brown Palace hotel. Then went to church…and had a lovely evening filled with irish music and 12 year old scotch. Not to mention a sweet phone call from a beautiful 7 month old baby girl! he he
Ya know…something I have been learning as I look over the past year. We really don’t have any control over what events happen around us. However, we control how we handle ourselves in those events. I think that part of that is realizing that we control our happiness. Meaning, we can help ourselves by being in a good state of mind. So instead of doing what I have been doing for the past couple of months I am taking a step back and thinking about things before I react to them. Which is a good thing.
Anywho…thanks for reading and thanks to everyone for their well wishes and thanks to everyone who came to my party! It was soo much fun! And thanks to my dear friend who even though I am trying at times made this one of the better birthdays that I have had in awhile.
