It's My Party And I'll . . . ~ Early Evening Thoughts

Today is my birthday - a wonderful milestone for me. . . it's been almost 1 year and 6 months since I decided to live sane(r) and sober. . . it's been almost 1 year and 6 months since I re-connected with my kids and grandchildren that I thought might be lost to me forever.

It's been an interesting journey with some wonderful highs and some rather interesting "valleys" . . . but, as I reminded someone today - there is little good grass that grows on the mountain top ~ particularly above the tree line!!

So, how did I celebrate all these milestones? By doing exactly what I wanted to today, sharing with some friends and enjoying the day and my life.

Now that may be a very small button - but press it and press it again and again and help me celebrate my birthday with unicorns and rainbows!!!!

An Explaination Of Sorts ~ Early Evening Thoughts

I apologize for my silence ~ on January 25th I moved from one apartment to another in the same complex. This was not a move to another town or even across town...I moved approximately 150 yards from where I lived.

I finally got my land line hooked up Monday and the internet TODAY ~ (cue frustrated sounds here).

I have a lot of emails and some work to catch up on and then I will post the story(ies) of this saga.

Again, my lengthy silence was certainly NOT my intention ...
