Dear Friends in Christ -
Today was not only my birthday, but also my day off. No lounging around because I had to follow the normal routine - getting the kids off to school, running errands, doing work for my daughter's dance recital, etc.
What I most longed for was a little birthday adventure, so I popped the new CD that my best friend sent into the car and drove around Shelton, hugging the town border as close as I could all the way around. We live in such an interesting and diverse community!
Along the way, I treated myself to lunch at a Chinese take-out place. I popped open the fortune cookie and this is what I read: "There are plenty of promises and hope floating around you." Ahhh, yes. May it be so. An awesome birthday blessing.
Almost as awesome as the 30+ birthday greetings I received from parishioners via Facebook, but not quite! (I have to say, the whole Facebook thing - which I have SOOOOO not mastered - makes me feel every bit of my 43 years. Blogging, Facebook, Twitter . . . I never saw a computer until I was a junior in high school. Am I "old"? Wait. Don't answer that!) :-)
God is good . . . so is life!
Blessings,
Janet+
