Today I turned 60! Amazing to think I am 60. I don't think I feel any different..I am excited about this next stage of my life. I plan on enjoying every moment of it..the good. the bad... and the sad. I am going to be grandma again..Tim and Shelly are getting married and having a baby. Amanda and Rick threw me a "non birthday party", that most of my Alaska friends couldn't attend because they were working OT. My family and friends turned out in droves and Paul got to meet the Buchta boys and they gave me their blessing. I love them so and am very happy to see them happy. Ray and Jenny had me up to their place for a day of SnowShoeing and a birthday dinner. Their two beautiful boys are starting to warm up to me and it is a joy to watch as they interact with their mom and dad. Ray is Pauls oldest boy, they have a place in McCall that sits above the river and so they outfitted me and off we went. We were out for about 2 hours, walking over virgin snow, listening to the birds sing, breathing crisp fresh air and just letting the beauty of the area sink into our souls. These wonderful people have welcomed me into their homes and lives and they make me feel very special. Yes 60 is going to be a good year for me and mine. Didn't get to jump from the plane today because of weather but will try again next week and the next week until I get it done. Going to see Elton John on the 9th, off to Debois the next week end and in May Paul and I are going to Maui for a week. I like this man ...I like the fun we have the laughter and the talks and sharing each others families and I like this man. I no longer have to be alone unless I want to be. I love my friends and my family real and extended. YES 60 is good....I am healthy...my mind is well....I have potential. Look out 60 here I come!
