Today is my 50th birthday!! I have to admit I am pretty darn happy I have lived this long! So here is my joy list from the past few weeks:
- Getting a bunch of small, lingering tasks done.
- The public library (this would be on every joy list of mine!)
- Some recent books from the library:
- “Rebecca” (Daphne Du Maurier)
- “A Fall of Marigolds” (Susan Meissner)
- “Dead Wake. The last crossing of the Lusitania” (Erik Larson)
- “A Walk in the Woods” (Bill Bryson)
- “The Hiding Place” (Corrie Ten Boom)
- Some recent books from the library:
- Sitting on my swing at dusk watching the bats swoop around and knowing they are eating all those pesky mosquitos.
- Two (in my lifetime) inventions that I find really useful:
- the debit card
- the DVR
- Our local classical public radio station
- Rain helping my rosebush bloom
- The start of football season (Go Wildcats! Go Broncos!)

- My son getting to play outside more with the cooler weather in the evenings and the neighborhood bully moving away.
- Cake for dessert tonight! Specifically Coconut Pecan Upside Down Cake (which my son and I are making together after school today)
Happy Birthday to me! And to YOU whenever your birthday is!

Happy Birthday!!!
