As I prepared for the New Year, I realized what a creature of ritual and celebration I've become. In some ways I've always been superstitious about this holiday, like cleaning house the day before and never throwing anything out on the day. My grandmother always said whatever happens on the 1st day is what we will have all year.
So today, on this beautiful and perfect new day I will cook, laugh, dance, write and give thanks for all of my blessings. Let the celebration begin!

Celebration
The Celebration begins! February is a fantastic month - not only is it when I was born but it has such wonderful energy. The days are beginning to get longer, spring is approaching and I am ready to waken from my long winters sleep.
I look forward to my birthday every year with the anticipation of a child! I love the process of aging and all the changes it brings. Most people think I am out of my mind but I am very happy to be at this stage of my life. Everything I've ever been through has brought me to this place in time.
It's all a matter of perspective - just like the old saying "Age is mind over matter - if you don't mind, it doesn't matter"! I intend to be a healthy, happy, vibrant old woman! Birthdays are a fabulous acknowledgement of life and that is why I celebrate all month long!
