Bahama Bound

Today, I am 60.

I've decided to relish every second of this year and celebrate throughout.

I'll wear the swimsuit that might not be quite age appropriate, knowing that if I don't now, then WHEN? (This sagginess isn't going to get any better.)

I'll ride the roller coaster (after taking ginger pills) and deal with the motion sickness because life is too short to avoid fun when it is offered.

I'll say YES when friends offer an invitation and make the most of the time spent with them.

I'll play hooky with the grand fairies and float away with them across the seas to explore new places.

I'll take the time to paint, to play, to walk in the woods.

I'll look for the happiness that is always waiting for us, if we just give it a chance.

I'll be thankful and recognize the blessings I have, and treat each day as a brand new gift.

The 4 grandfairies, my Handsome Husband, and I are on a Disney Cruise to the Bahamas now, and my birthday dinner will be before Pirate Night on the ship, after a day on the beaches. It can't get any better than that. We are also celebrating our eldest girl's high school graduation while floating around.

I, too, get motion sickness on trains and boats, both of which I like. So, I got a patch from my doctor, and I put it on 3 days before the event. No side effects, it just allows for more fun! Try it!
