March Birthday Party

The March birthday party was absolutely one of the best days I've had in a while. It was just cool enough to enjoy the camp fire (I know --- we 're under a statewide burn ban) while visiting with the people I hold near and dear to my heart. Everybody brought a food contribution and we had a spread rivaled Luby's. The kids planned their weekend so they could all be here as well.

As the day winded down, I took into account that I am blessed to be right where I am. The economy sucks, attitudes are becoming more and more negative and who knows what our children and grandchildren will face in the future. It was nice to take a time-out from all the bullshit that we get so wrapped up in every day. Life is too short to let negative people and situations get you down. Take advantage of every opportunity to spend time with loved ones. And surround yourself with the people who you love and make you feel loved. Above all, surround yourself with people who make you laugh!

"HAPPY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY" to those of you born in the month of March!
