Um, thanks God.

Sigh.  I fondly remember all my thoughts leading up to this 1-year birthday of mine - how I was gonna not announce it till it actually happened, then on my birthday I'd quietly, with the proper measure of humility and keeping any touch of pride out of my voice say, "1 year today" at a meeting.

But my HP had other plans.  If it was humility I wanted, it was humility I would get!  So instead I came down with a real nasty stomach flu, which kept me in bed from the 15th to now (and I think I'm gonna go back to bed here very shortly).

So, thanks for letting me know who's not in charge once again.  I know you have a sense of humor so I'm sure you'll appreciate the irony of my being somewhat sarcastic.

biggrin

Oh yeah, my wife piled on a bit too.  I said, "Why me?" and she said, "Oh please, everyone gets sick - you're nothing special!"

That is rather ironic...at least it's not self induced nausea. Either way, hope you get better soon Glenn and happy anniversary again....It's really your month anyhow...

Glenn,
Congratulations on your 1 year.  It's funny how we get all worked up with these little plans, spending time thinking about them, then god throws us into his plans for us.  I love it.  Not that your sick of course, just the power he has.  For me each of these experiences reinforce in this stubborn head of mine who is really in charge.  Not me, thank god.  Hope you get well soon.

Hi my friend,

Well I for one, agree with YOU, and your planned annoncement of "one year today" no big rehersal on that, eh?

"Life is what is always happening, while we are making our Plans...."

Feeling perhaps obstinant this morning, (not good), but I will add while I am writing this, it IT IS too bad you are sick on your Birthday, and why, because you are indeed, SPECIAL....
every single child of God is that, Special....HE'S shows me that all the time.

So there....   matrixfight.gif

Hope you know that the above is just being playful.
Hugs, and get WELL soon!
 
PS, hope it did not start after you ate the cake I sent.

Safe, cyber Hug, Toni

I like your sense of humor about the situation. Its what happens when we get big britches. It's an amazing milestone and sometimes lying on a couch all sick is a good time to reflect, lol! I hope you enjoy announcing it when you are well, and get the good vibes that come wtih the accomplishment.
