Have you ever got invited to a party and confirm with the people you are coming, then this or that happens and the day of the party comes and you like OMG we have that party to go to? So to keep your word, you make an appearance, go and talk, have a drink, smile and then get the hell out of there?

Well that is NOT what happened when I went to my party on Sunday!!! Something just clicks, everyone is having a great time, you start drinking and talking, laughing and singing and before you know it, you're over the edge, you've past the point of no return and it does not matter if your spouse is saying, Let's go, or you have to work in the morning, it does not matter! You are having fun and you know it' s something you have to run with so you stay!!

It started out as a normal party, took you forever to get your shit together to get there! But when you do, people are so happy you came, they are warm and friendly, people that you have just met are super nice and you talk to them like you've known them for years! I suppose coming with a bag full of cigars is a great way to enter a party! My husband likes the occasional cigar as do I and he got a great deal on three different types, so he started passing them out right when we got there!!! Great Ice Breaker!!!

Oh I had so much fun! At one point I sat down on the edge of a wicker chaise lounge, I was chatting with a couple of my friends and decided it would be fine to sit here! WRONG!!! I realized I had no business squattin/sitting on the edge of this thing (afraid it was going to topple over at any minute!) and had to get my feet up and under myself to get up!!!!!!!!!!!! LMAO!!! Here I am thinking, OK Lisa, easy does it, make sure you use your good ankle (left leg) and get yourself off this thing before you break it in half!!
I was successful, but of course this just gave me more confidence to keep going!!!!!! Hot Damn!!! I'm on a roll!!!!!!!

Oh I laughed so hard Sunday, it's contagious too. When you laugh, people laugh too and then it just spreads! Laughter changes the chemicals in your brain, it raises the good levels of brain activity and is the best medicine! I was high from laughter alone, well of course the Corona's were helping too!

I usually don't tell people what I do for a living, having a paper route at age 41 is not the most glamorous job! But at about midnight I let it slip that I had to work in about 4 hours!! LMAO! Now as the time went on, one girl just kept pointing to her watch!!! LOL!

We stayed til 3am, left and went and got the papers....Then went home and slept for a few hours! On a holiday I have til 8am to get them delivered, we made out fine. Well, as far as getting them delivered, not too well as far as we felt!!!!!
I hit no garages or parked cars! Everyone got their paper by 8 and no one was the wiser!!!

My hubby slept and slept all day, I slept for a few hours after I got back from my route but was surprised that I felt pretty good when I woke up! Again remembering the laughter antidote!

Last night at about 8pm, I woke hubby up, "I want to go see the fireworks, and so does your son, get UP!!"

Glorious weekend! The start of what I hope to be one of my best summers!

Very cool!!!!

I am so glad to her that you had such a great time...that you let your hair down and could just be yourself. That is the most important thing...to be happy with who you are...and from what I have read, you're really blossoming!

Love ya,
Sarah
