Historically, I like to celebrate a "birth week" for my birthday. I enjoy planning a week of activities to
commemorate my special day. Nothing over the top, just various activities with friends and family. Over the years, this has meant many different things or activities matching my given age. Prior to
Marly and Dean, the "kick off" was a Sunday family brunch. For several years, my Dad treated us to
Chez Collette, a favorite pick of mine. My 30
th birthday included a wonderful party with many family and friends. Last year (my 33rd), the family brunch was at
Jax Cafe, but was post -birthday, and of course included
Marly and Dean. On my 32
nd - I waddled into Lucia's in Uptown.
This year I have decided I am too busy. The
KS95 for Kids fundraiser is this Thursday, Friday and Saturday, so... I have decided to stay 33! 33 is nice. 33 suits me well. 33 feels good. 33 is comfortable. I feel I should just stick with it!
The photo is me at 33. It was taken before the delicious lamb chop dinner Mark cooked for my Valentine birthday last year. Gretchen and Dan joined us for our special meal.
(Okay, in all actuality...I see a heart shaped pizza in my future Friday night for
Thomberg Family Pizza. And I will see my family for a dinner instead of a brunch on Sunday...And I suppose 34 will come
whether I celebrate a "birth week, " birthday, or not at all!)
