So far...
...50 is great. At some point, the party has to end. But I'm still celebrating.
I started the party on Thursday, April 30 with Robin. We had a long breakfast/lunch at Mimi's. She did all the driving and brought me a bottle of wine. Celebration #1
Saturday night we went to dinner with Mark and Anita at Bonefish. Celebration #2
Tuesday (my actual birthday) I spent the whole day with the kids and we had lunch at La Paz. Danny had an extra long lunch break that day and joined us. Celebration #3
I came home Tuesday evening to roses and two cards from John. One was funny; the other was probably the best card he has ever given me. And he has given me plenty of great cards. We spent a quiet evening at home, since we had tickets to TPAC the next night. Celebration #4
Wednesday night John took me to Ruth's Chris for dinner and we saw "Happy Days" (a Broadway Series Musical) at TPAC. Celebration #5
Tomorrow is the BIG celebration. We're going to Barbados for the week! Celebration #6
And when I get back, I have lunch plans to celebrate with Janette and Cheryl. Celebrations #7 and #8
I think I've set a record for birthday cards this year, too. Maybe turning 50 isn't so bad!!!
Danny and Rebecca got me a really nice lap desk for my laptop. I have used it every day since. But my most favorite gift of all was a little blue journal Danny gave me. And it's my favorite gift because of what he wrote inside. I love you, Danny!
I don't care how old I am. I think I just love having birthdays. Let's see...maybe I can drag this one out for the whole month of May.
What I need to do right now is go check my lasagna. A friend of ours is going to house sit while we're gone and he loves my lasagna. So I baked a huge pan for him to eat all week while he's here.
One other thing, if I could ask a favor. John's sister, Lillian, was just diagnosed with a malignant tumor in her neck and she is facing surgery. Please keep her in your prayers.
I haven't decided if I'm taking the laptop on the road with me yet, but if I do, I will probably be checking in with a few pictures...
