Happy Birthday to me! Athene was my gift to me from me.. I love her already very much, we all do but HOLY Rottweiler -she is non stop and keeps me on my toes.. which, I am pretty sure I broke my big toe yesterday... that's another story.
My day started off terrible. Norm accused me of "ruining every holiday!" I guess this is because I completely ignored his "Happy Birthday" wish this morning. Holidays... those days, like birthdays and Christmas where we are expected to magically forget the bullshit we deal with all year and be grateful that he wished me 'Happy birthday', even though for over 30 years he hardly (purposely) acknowledges me when I speak... so yeah, I guess I do ruin holidays by NOT playing the 'game', any longer.
I was going to stay in bed all day but then thought, why let it get to me .. I know the truth & God knows the truth.
So, I started a new painting in a completely different way/style and I'm excited to finish it. Pooh & Piglet on an adventure.
I was in bed till about 2.. as I have recently had 3 teeth pulled (the molar) removed yesterday, is hurting the most.
My TN, from clenching my face so much over the past 10 years had worn away the bone and they were getting infected so out they had to come. Birthdays are just another day anyway... no cake for me, today.
I did have someone who caught me off guard with a text & he sang "Happy Birthday!" It was from Dallas Jenkins - The Chosen director lol. I know he doesn't know me, but the timing was priceless lol - I actually teared up and I immediately thought: The Lord indeed works in mysterious ways!
Yes, it made me smile, cheered me up & I got up & gave thanks, for it all.
ALL things are lessons, God will have us learn.
Time to paint this POOH, which also made me smile - it's important to make yourself smile, this is accomplished always by remembering God & Jesus & a love for us that IS steadfast - always... for all eternity!
