Getting older

Why is it that as you get older your birthdays are not as much fun? My body is slowing down, getting a little wider. My mind is crowded with too many things and some of them seem to fade.

But looking at the big picture. I have a husband who loves me. He remembered that I wanted a new digital camera (sometime) and that I had admired my sister’s new camera that she got for Christmas. He actually called my sister to ask her what kind of camera she has!

For my birthday, he got me a new camera! Just in time too since the view window on my old one was going black.

AND, he surprised me with a wonderful card (not for my birthday, just an “I love you” card) on Monday, before my birthday. He put it in the car so I found it when I got in to go to work. Then I got another card today on my birthday.

I am so blessed! Even in my “old” age.

Looking forward to this weekend. We are getting away for the night, just the two of us.
