"This Day Was Made For Me"

And I was grateful for it. Seventeen degrees and not a cloud in the sky on Nov 14th!

This is the beautiful gift I got for my birthday.
.

Everything nicely put together for the wall.

And of course a few beautiful children to share the day with makes it even more special.

I feel pretty good about being 54 years old. I have my health and my family and....well that's all I really have. Well no, actually I gots lots more "stuff" than that but I can't think of anything that really matters.

Of course I'm 54 years old and as such am re-evaluating those things that are truly important. When you're 6 years old there's still some other things I suppose. This evening Colby offered up the informtion that he can ride a motorcycle with 2 wheels. This was immediataly followed by, "Maybe you could get me one some time grampa?" And I suppose that's my fault eh? Oh well, when he's 54 or so I'll stop buying him stuff!

"Oh it's a mystery to me.

We have a greed, with which we have agreed...

and you think you have to want more than you need...

until you have it all, you won't be free."---Eddie Vedder
