Come on in, take your shoes off and stay for awhile!

I'm so glad you came to visit and celebrate my 49th year! I simply can't imagine a better way to celebrate than to share each day with my friends. It will be an exiciting year -

Day 2 - March 8th - Mardi Gras

Throw Me Something Mister! Laissez les bon temps rouler! Happy Mardi Gras -

Today is day two of my journey into my 49th year. Listening to Mardi Gras music on Pandora and I can hardly keep from getting up and dancing around the office. My staff already thinks I'm borderline!

Feeling happy but yet a bit overwhelmed by everything that needs to be done. My mother's husband died a couple of weeks ago. Since my sister is taking care of our father, the care of my mother falls to me. Needless to say the affairs are somewhat in a mess! One day at a time -

I really miss my best friend - Teri. We've been friends forever. At least it seems that way. We met in a past life - Mardi Gras makes me think of her. We have thrown down at many a Mardi Gras celebration. Hurricanes, beads, parades, great food, more hurricanes (the kind you drink - not the kind that blows you away!) and more and more beads! I am certain to share many stories involving her as this journey progresses. Let's just say she is one of my angels. I have many other fabulous girlfriends too! I love them as well and for some reason I miss each one of them today - like my favorite hippie chick - Taren! I love our wonderful, philosophical discussions. I miss Karen Fletcher in Baton Rouge today - we should be slurpping down some of Randy's famous Bloody Mary's! Girlfriends are the absolute best! Today is National Women's Day. Celebrate all of the wonderful women in your life, don't forget to give them a great big, squishy hug and tell them how much they mean to you!

The hustle and bustle of progress is happening outside of my office. Perhaps I need to join it and get this day started. I hope this day finds each of you wanting more. I hope you choose that for yourself! After all - Destiny is a matter of choice, not a matter of chance -
