When I was younger, I thought I would not live into my thirties. Not sure why I thought that, but I really believed I wouldn't live longer than that. Now look at me. Sixty-five today. I am officially OLD!! Medicare kicks in. I receiving Social Security. Yep. I'm officially over that 'young' threshold and into 'very mature' adulthood.
To celebrate this momentous occasion, I slept in until I wanted to get out of bed. That turned out to be 7:30am. Yeah me!! I came downstairs and played my computer games to wake up my brain. I've order Papa's some of the meds he needs. I've walked my treadmill and showered. I found that the 'birthday fairy' (a.k.a. Claude) did the dishes for me. Such a wonderful gift. Now I'm going to blog a bit. This afternoon Claude and I will go checking out new mattresses before having a really nice dinner in Lexington. That is one nice birthday.
I don't usually broadcast my birthday. Prefer it to be quiet and to myself. But today I feel just great that I've made it to sixty-five. I even lost a pound when I weighed myself this morning. My stars must be in alignment, my bio-rhythms in sync, my karma at it's best. But most importantly, I truly feel the love of my Heavenly Father today. I just knelt by my chair in my sewing room this morning and thanked him for all his many blessings. And, I meant it.
Tomorrow, reality will set it. Back to the normal schedule. But today, I will just enjoy those things that bring me joy and a quiet dinner with my Big Guy Clauda. Today is a good day.
