Shad Point Scotts: Early Retirement! Make Me an Offer!

Birthday Girl!!

Well, I made it. Today I officially reached the age where I can actually retire if I chose to! What a feeling of freedom. However, since my expenses far outweigh my income, it's not really a choice so I'll keep on doing what I've done for almost 26 years now! Get up and go to work.

Today is my birthday and I can't believe I am this old! Truthfully, I feel great and am so blessed with so many good friends and loving family members. I received so many Happy Birthday wishes today- I really feel loved. Of course, so many of those who called are the ones I always seem to miss when its their birthdays- but they love me anyway! God is Good!

I received a phone message from Chris (who did not have to be reminded-WOW). It was so good to hear from him-made me feel loved and special-hopefully the next time he calls I'll be home!

I also web cammed with Min and the boys and it was neat to hear my little Lukester say Happy Birthday to his MeMe! and also got a sweet sweet smile from Will.

Tonight we had dinner at Old West steakhouse with Randy and Jamie. I love the "Chicken Chesapeake" (grilled chicken with crab imperial on top!)

God has richly blessed me all my life and I am so undeserving. I give Him all my praise for all the good gifts He has given me. I just pray I will find new ways to share His goodness with others.

Thank you to all for making this day so special! I love each of you and you are continually in my prayers. A special birthday greeting also to my cousins, Nancy Jean who was born on my 16th b'day and April. I miss those years we celebrated together!

This guy always makes me feel special!
