Memories...

So, yes, I turned 40 not too long ago (Bless you to all of those who were genuinely shocked at that revelation!). So far, 40 is treating me well. Good celebrations, good times with friends, and a family that loves me through teasing T-shirts (whose pictures I will post when I get my act together).



I had planned a series of celebrations for a number of reasons, including that I couldn't decide on just one thing I wanted to do with a large group of people. So I proposed a multiple choice party, or "birthday smorgasbord" if you will.



At the first of four events, a friend asked me to share one favorite memory from each of my decades. This ended up being a great way to reflect on life to date, as well as share more from my soul, so I'll be sharing those memories here (and probably adding more to the mix since more keep coming to mind). And refraining from singing "Memories" (either the "Cats" version or the Barbara Streisand version). But I digress...
