Happy Birthday (edited)

to me. :)

It's been a while since I've posted. Not much has been occuring in my life lately. Today is my birthday. In a couple of short years I'll go from being in the 30s to being in my 40s. And on some days, I can really feel it!


Some of the things that have been happening in the the past few weeks....

I joined a concert band that meets once a week. It's great fun and helps me meet some people not either already friends with Pat or that I work with. It's still a bit hard, as I'm not the most outgoing person in the world, but I've met a few people and am starting to enjoy playing again.

I have been doing Aquacize. Don't laugh...it's hard! 45 minutes of movement while having your body underwater. I felt a bit like I'd gone thru the ringer after my first day. But I'm not letting that stop me. And it is getting better. Most of the people in the group are ladies in their 50s or 60s, but I think there are a couple in their 40s. I'm definately the youngest of the group. But I have found where one of the indoor pools are and I love it! It's really not too expensive either. A month's membership (good for both the pool and fitness area run by the city) is less the $50. The price goes down (10-30%) if you buy 3, 6, 9 or 12 month memberships. So I think I'll be investing in one of those. It would be nice to be back to my "normal" weight/build again. And without the depression and meds...I'm pretty sure I can do it. :)

Work is going well still. I have about 2 months left at the current house I'm at, then I'll move to the 4th and final house the company runs. After that...back to the begining I guess.

It's been a nice relaxing happy birthday for me today.

PS--I have to have a little rant here...

I ran across a list of famous people born on the 9th of October and looked up who was born on the 6th. I feel a bit...cheated. Lots and lots of famous folk born the entire first 15 days of October...with one exception. October 6th. Our short list incluedes: George Westinghouse, Carole Lombard and Elisabeth Shue. Ok, Ok..there were three more on the list at http://www.famousbirthdays.com/ Amy Jo Johnson (a pink power ranger), Britt Ekland, (a Bond girl), and Le Corbusier (an architect,designer,artist) That's it! I feel a bit cheated. Look at the list for the rest of October...so many very famous names. Although the 24th is another less represented day. :)
