DAY 57


Happy Birthday to Meeeeeee!!!!!

I love the tradition of birthdays. Every year, rain or shine, sleet or snow, I get a pineapple upside down cake for dessert. Although, I’ve never had one with a tea light for a birthday candle before.

I had a GREAT day. We went to church this morning. Good service, great singing. Carmen did a wonderful job with the worship and the choir. Rick was a genius with the creative story-telling.

After church, we drove to the Indianapolis Convention Center to watch my God-daughter perform her cheering routine with her team. It was so much fun to see her tumbling and cheering.

We came home and I ironed my shirts and laid out my suits for my first week of work at my new job. I have my paper-work finished and my passport to prove I’m a U.S. citizen. I’ll probably drive tomorrow but after that, whenever possible, I’ll take the express bus from Carmel. It will be nice to have someone else drive. I’ll get a lot of reading done.

After a satisfying supper of meatloaf and baked potato, I’ve settled in to watch Rugby and drink a Pilsner. If every day is like this 45th birthday, this next year will be all right.
