Today I have Lunch With A Friend to look forward to. 

Another early birthday celebration. 

She’s picking me up so we can talk the whole way there.

We won’t miss a moment of conversation.

Our words are always overlapping with laughter mingled in. 

I am so thankful for my girlfriends who know turning 40 is a big deal.

Still 39 though…for a few more days. 

Not that I care about The Number. 

I don’t feel old or oldish. 

I just feel like me. 

Which is A Good Thing. 

I’m the only person I want to be. 

No more trying to fit in with teenage angst. 

No more holding back if I have something that needs to be said.

Besides Lunch In The Middle, I’ll take my boys to school, get some groceries, fold some laundry, put the lights on the Christmas tree so ornaments can follow this evening, pick my boys up from school and then take them to get their hair cut. 

I’m not sure What’s For Supper yet…but I have time to figure it out. 

Something Yummy is the answer.

Today shall be A Wonderful Day. 

May yours be too.

You’re very welcome. Your words were too wise to not share them. It’s amazing how much more settled I am, on the inside, since I started writing this spring at My Opera, before Tumblr this fall, and also getting back in the groove of making fine art. Both were missing pieces for my soul. Now I know. Thus, your words struck a chord in me, even though music is not one of my gifts or talents (at all.) ~ Janean
