Today is Memorial Day...

...and today i am sick... but here's me last week, along with a few of my best friends! Look at those smiles! We're having lunch at a place called Prado in San Diego. What are we smiling at? The cute waiter, of course! How else did you think i could get a pic of all four of us together, eh?

Tradition... what it is?

When we were kids, days moved so slowly... and now..... well, it's Sunday again. Since my life changed i've had a new tradition. Every Sunday a few friends & i get together for some fast food and ice cream... always ice cream for dessert.

It's fun. My friends are so wise. They knew it was time for a new tradition - for them and for me. We all look forward to this time together. We thank God for the friendship and the food. We eat the food. We enjoy the friendship. We look forward to next Sunday. I love these wonderful people. I enjoy the food and the laughs..... but dear God, why do the Sundays seem to come faster now than they did when i was a kid?

never too old to learn, eh?

Didn't know there was a song about 'me' until my friend Lori from SparkPeople told me about Shirley by Shakin' Stevens. Well, if you want to hear it, click on the arrow in center... just like on YouTube, where we found it! Visit Lori's website, Melodie and Harmonee.

Then i visited another SP friend's website and she had a YouTube song on her page... so i viewed the source and saw what size she made it to fit on her blog... SixtyFiveAlive.
