    Birthday 09

    Well, another birthday has gone to pass and it was a good, well make that great, weekend. So as I sit here enjoying my last piece of birthday cake, I reflect. It may have gotten off to a bumpy start but it can’t be helped sometimes. Some people are just strange and frustrate me. J did try to make the best of it for me though since it is the first year we are alone on our birthdays.  We went out to grab some food and drinks, I got a phone call from my Mom and my brother in BC and watched playoff hockey.  It was sweet. We were going…

    So I’m done work

    It’s all over. It’s complete. C’est finis. I had to keep busy or else I would have cried for most of the afternoon. So I didn’t sit still. I focused on the stuff I had to do and on the long drive ahead and being able to see J is just 2 more weeks. I had a few moments where I had to turn my back and my throat was blocked by a frog while my eyes welled up. I did better than I thought I was going to do though for sure. I didn’t make a scene and I held it together until I was alone in my car…
