OK so I am not in the moment projecting & making plans. I am so excited about my 50th birthday party. I hope that all this planning isn't too much for me. The party is on Saturday July 23rd. I have been planning for so long that it actually effected my sleep. I already have insomnia. But here is the kicker I can
just enjoy myself w o having a real bad experience. I just wish that I could just get through today & not think about what could or the chance that something would go wrong. Like I said. I just want to have a good time & allow others to have a good time as well. I will just have to turn it over. & keep busy & work the program one day at a time.
Kathleen - it will be great and you will be fine! Prayers and positive thoughts headed your way for a peaceful 2 days before the big day! I'm not worried about that day yet - God has it covered!!
(((Hugs)))

I.feel quite envious. It is decades since I.did anything for my.birthday. congratulation on celebrating. Birthdays are big for me. Christmas is big for me. Thanksgiving is big for me. I have a really big issue with them. I have shut down around those holidays. At the moment I work on those days. That is how I deal with them but that feels very hollow.
I hope it all goes great.
