Happy Birthday to Me!

Ok...I'm a few days late in this post, but I have been down most of the week.

I have never been so happy to be older!!
Battling cancer sure changes ones view of birthdays!

Really any event or non-event. I want to take it all in and many days I just can't. Then I feel guilty for missing the moments and try to make it up by pushing too hard. (Catalina, you know this one too well don't you??)
Anyway... I am thrilled to be here to experience 35 and I hope to continue experiencing the joys of getting older for decades to come!

My hubby (and kiddos) COMPLETELY spoiled me this year! I wish I had felt better - we are going to have a do-over on the cake once I am up to it =)

On another note, Daniel is having HUGE separation anxiety issues with going back to school and having a new sitter. And it is looking like we will be looking - again - for another sitter. Which means more interviews - it is SO draining! please pray for us on this one!

I have been down almost a week and it is getting old!
I *need* to get my house unpacked, organized, and de-cluttered ASAP. Not because I feel like I 'should", but because I know it would be more calming for myself and my family. That is a number one priority once I feel better. One room at a time...
If I keep watching 'Clean House' I am hopeful I can let go of more and more stuff that we truly don't need. Great homework for those of us with too much stuff!

Fall is my FAVORITE season! I have already started making things with canned pumpkin! And enjoying my pumpkin candle! It is time to bat my eyes and ask Eric to dig out my fall decorations! =)

TTFN!
