I haven't had a good Monday in 4 months.
I also don't like Monday anymore (as you may have previously read)
So having my birthday fall on a Monday, is a little bittersweet.
I was very anxious about it. But I've always been one for "birthday weekends"...
Having a holiday for a birthday (that most people my age like to celebrate) makes it easy.
I spend it with both family, friends and then with a margarita (or 2)
I
made sure that I had an easy, awesome and happy plan made and said
nothing and no one could ruin this weekend. I so desperately have wanted
to smile, be carefree and feel good
(even) just for a little while.
I most certainly did JUST that! I celebrated with family and great friends this weekend.
We laughed, we sang, we tasted wine, we indulged!
I woke up to an alarm at 7:15 and I knew I would be snoozing... And I did
til about 7:35!
But I had a phone filled with missed calls, texts, a few
voicemails and notifications!
I couldn't wait to read them ALL!
Certainly an amazing way to wake up. I think most people would love
it too and say I'm strange for being so excited BUT the last time I felt
so much attention and love was a few months ago when my
brother had passed. But this was a happy love and I am beaming!
The sun is shining today, I've received some amazing gifts.
Some in wrapping, some in envelopes and some in the form of writing.
I never expected to feel as great as I did today, but I put it out there.
I let myself be a little vulnerable,
told myself that all good things will come and I prayed, a lot!
So happy to be feeling exceptionally and extremely happy today!
I have much more to share but the day is still going... <3
