Today, January 13th and I am 61 years old. That really seems impossible as I don’t feel a day older than 43 though my bad knee makes me feel 85 often.
Why am I writing a post to celebrate my own birthday? Because so much good stuff has happened during this past year and 365 days ago I was very depressed about the future and what it might hold. Now I am excited about the future and all the possibilities. I know where I am going to be working next year and am thrilled at the opportunity to learn a new culture, meet new people and possibly learn a new language. (I have not been very successful on that previously with French and Chinese but I live in hope that my language learning gene will suddenly kick in).
Celebrating my birthday with my great class
Heather, Happy Birthday! So sorry I forgot on the actual day…..my brain is a sieve these days.
You are a wonderful person, and yes, the future is looking exciting. Enjoy this time.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR HEATHER, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!!
Happy birthday, Heather. Glad that life is taking on an exciting direction again for you. I look forward to 2012 although I have some challenging school roles to take up this year. But, we have two new grandchildren on the way and I love spending time with family. I turn 60 this year (and have very mixed feelings about that) but I love learning and still love teaching.
