The Days of May

The days of May.... are flying by.... representative of this crazy life I lead! One of the said days just happened to be my birthday. That's right. Cinco de Mayo has come and gone, yet again. *SIGH*

Truth be known, I'm relatively indifferent about getting older. There is absolutely (plug your ears kids!) F*CK ALL that I can do about it, so I'm embracing it. And I am determined to have the year of my life!

The month started off with a Social Club function that I attended with my friend and co-worker Bev....

Mixology was on the agenda, and we learned to shake-shake-shake a few delicious summer drinks. Yum!

Next up.... my good friend Vida was in town, and as coincidence would have it, she celebrates her birthday within a few days of mine... so this year I was fortunate enough to share in the 'feliz cumpleanos' festivities with her....

And, as per her usual considerate, thoughtful, lovely self, later in the weekend I received a bag full of lovely goodies from my bestie Lisa.....

Needless to say, I had an exceptional birthday / birthday weekend / birthday week! Everybody should be so lucky......

This weekend I am in Canmore, my truly happy place, and I'm looking forward to having lunch on top of Miner's Peak tomorrow - supposed to be +24C! Wow. I need a recharge, in a really big way, and I know that a slow and steady grind, surrounded by snow-dusted peaks, which ends in a familiar yet monumental vista, is just what the doctor would order. :)

Cheers.

This.... is forty-nine.....
