I celebrated my birthday all week last week and it was not how I thought it would be. I did not plan it well at all. Instead, I had caught COVID a couple of weeks before so it was important that I made it in to see the specialist and he was available the day before my birthday. Someone else had an appointment earlier that week that I also attended. I was told as I was approaching that person’s house that someone else could go, but I was like I am more than halfway there so I might as well take you.
Then a different person tried to ruin the day, but I was sitting too high to be touched with craziness. Whatever I do not involve myself in personally, does not matter. So, it did not matter. I took this person to the doctor, got some food, took the person home, and left. I went out to eat at one of my favorite places, that no longer tastes the same. That was disappointing.
On my actual birthday, I wanted breakfast. So I got up and went to a restaurant, also a favorite, and the service was so bad I left. I went to another place that I had not tried before and got served a bee in the hot syrup bottle. So, I canceled the order and left. I settled for Wendy’s, and let someone else drive while I fell asleep. Arrived at my house to rest. Then my Bestie made dinner and my favorite dessert, Rice Krispie Treats, but we were not hungry, so I went to sleep after thanking God for letting me see another year and to be surrounded by genuine love.
What a Birthday! Next year, I am planning better, still take the week off of work, be surrounded by genuine love, be grateful for seeing another year, and be so high that I cannot and will not be affected by the ignorance of next year.
