Another year older!

I guess you could call me all grown up now!  Fifty something! The Thrifty Fifties ...

Lots to look forward to.  I've reached a stage in my life where I no longer worry about what other people think.  I can be myself without trying to impress anyone.  I don't have to make excuses, but can say "no thank you" and not feel guilty about it. I have newfound confidence and can say what I feel (always remaining tactful of course), and I am comfortable with myself!

I am moving forward.  I feel happy and content.  I am feeling safe and secure with decisions I have made over the past 3 months.

I am looking forward to the start of my new life.  And it all started with a wonderful Birthday celebration.  Just the 5 of us, at Gilroy's.  The food was good, the wine was crisp and cold, the live music just fabulous and the company - simply the best!



Thank you Stacey and Brad, Rob and Les for sharing my special day.  Thank you for my beautiful gifts and for spoiling me so much!  I LOVE my new camera and can't wait to start sharing my memories in picture.

I am Blessed beyond words.
