Through The Tulips Words of 'Wiz'dom

For someone who was actually dreading turning the big 4-0 almost two years ago, I can attest to the fact that life really does begin at 40.  

That title is also the theme to the birthday bash that mom and diddy are throwing for my amazing brother, who will turn the big 4-0 himself in less than two months.

Since we’re here, and the party is there, Marcel and I won’t be able to make it, but you can be certain that we’ll be there in spirit, and even though I’m not going to be there, I’m doing what I can from here to help with the party preps, such as designing and ordering the invitations for mom-  something I actually need to work on this week, so I can get her seal of approval and send in the order.  

I also have several ideas up my sleeve to surprise my bro on his special day, surprises that will have to be carried out by mom and/or diddy, but I know they’ll do anything for me, their favorite daughter.  *smile*

Life really does begin at 40, in more ways than one.

My Gratitude List for April 8, 2009.

Today I’m Grateful For:

• Finally finding a new tablecloth for Sunday’s Easter brunch.
• Marcel vacuuming for me today, while I took care of a few other things in house.
• Leftovers, which meant I didn’t have to cook today.
• “Home alone” time tonight.
• Those who ‘get it right’.
