It’s a Party Over Here!

It’s a Party Over Here!

When you finally realize that you have more years behind you than you do in front of you, life starts to take on new meaning.  I don’t know why it took turning 70 years old before I decided to make drastic changes that would allow me to enjoy life the way I always wished I could.  At the time of this writing, I am laying across the bed in an Airbnb that I booked for two days, although I just finished throwing myself a 40-year Breast Cancer Anniversary Party, all expenses paid by me, in addition to doing a Girl’s Trip two weeks ago out of town (we drove), at another Airbnb for the weekend.  I keep telling everyone that I am living my best life, which I am, although I have no idea what my life will look like three to six months from now.  Nothing in my life is written in stone!  That’s the way that I planned it back in January when I gave up my apartment to move in with strangers (a family).  I signed a six month lease, which ran out in July and is now month to month, so basically I could move with a 30-day notice.  So far I have committed myself to stay through Christmas, because I’m about to purchase a small Christmas tree for my bedroom.  But after then, who knows what I will do?

Part of my reason for moving was to travel, eat out more, and stop driving Uber, in addition to several financial goals.  So far I am booked for Lexington, VA in November and Fort Lauderdale, FL in December.  Haven’t decided where to go or what to do in January, because that’s my birthday month.  But you know I’m working on it!  Sometimes the not knowing is crazy, then other times it is quite enjoyable and mysterious.  It definitely keeps me on my toes and alert to what’s going on in the world and my immediate circles.  I just love watching God work things out and continue to surprise me!  Oh well, I’ll see you on the other side.
