tomorrow is my 52nd birthday...how did that happen?? Two years ago, I remember Cinda helping me host a party at the station during my show..where we served cake that I had purchased to any one who was nice enough to stop in..about 40 of you did! The next year, last year, I didn't feel much like celebrating, wondering what THAT year would bring...THIS year, I celebrate 6 healthy happy grandkids, treatments for diseases that years ago would have been fatal, I celebrate Family, Faith, Friends, all of which I have in abundance. My lack of employment bothers me less, ( waiting for the day less paycheck doesn't bother me either!) and I'm learning to enjoy whatever the day presents.
As far as being 52..not sure I've totally digested that one yet. Of course, that's still 16 years younger that my "real age" as determined by the Quiz on line provided by Dr Oz.
Saturday, I was part of the Pella Christian High Catering TEAM that provided the meal for all who witnessed the marriage ceremony of Mandy Van Woerkom and Chad Klyn. I worked at PCHS 20 years ago when the hot lunch program began, and now they have not only moved into a brand new kitchen, but also branched out to provide excellent catering services. ( let me know if you have an event coming up! I KNOW people!!) It was fun to work with some of the ladies I started with 20 years ago, (hats off to Bonnie and Helen!!) and to enjoy the gals who "have come behind me!" ( Rayma, Kathy and Jan : they soo wanted their names on the blog!) the ladies did a great job, and it was rather fun to be "working" again, with adults! (for the most part!) and it's always good to celebrate the beginning of yet another good Christian couple. I must admit, my feet were killing me when i got home, not used to being on my feet for 8 hours on hard floors!
Friday night, we had a family picture taken at digital galeria. OH MY,,,, the kids did great!! Our photographer did a super job and I am quite pleased with their work (if only they could make me look 40 pounds thinner and poof up my hair....) Now to choose the ones we want...we've been viewing on line all day (let me know if you'd care to see our 99 proofs!)
thanks to those of you who check in on us from time to time, and I see someone almost every time I'm out "in the world" who says they read about us, or folks who still mention that they miss my mornings on kcwn...me too..
All this week, Val has off before starting full time school on the 26th..this will be her final term before receiving her LPN, and her plans include continuing to get her RN, another year..so when Val goes to school full time, Georgia and I become "full time" buddies too.
and yes, here I am, 52.
love to all
oh, check out my blog for the balance bit of the week...and my new website design
