I’m 54!
A Big Bowl of Noodles for Longevity
Wow, it’s my 54th birthday today! I owe myself a favor! I’ve got to jot down something on The Spirit to commemorate the significant day in my life.
Honestly speaking, were it not for my birthday, I probably would not write on The Spirit. So, for today, I had a big lunch at a French restaurant with friends. The chef and waitresses sang “Happy Birthday” for us. I had a big dinner with family, my husband and my brother didn’t sing, but they took a lot of photos of me with two big 5 & 4 candles in my hands.
Life is really full of wonders. I don’t know what will happen tomorrow. I don’t know what will happen next year on my 55th birthday. And I wouldn’t have thought that I would charter a chorus two months ago? With drumming, singing, dancing, in addition to reading and writing, I am a busy housewife.
Being the editor-in-chie of Yangmingshan National Park Volunteers Group for one year, from July 2009 to June 2010, I spend a lot of time writing notices for 500 plus volunteers on daily basis. I guess it will be the Thanksgiving Day I write on The Spirit. Who knows what will happen in-between? I am curious!
Dear Sherry
I did not forget that it was your birthday on 09-10-09. I just could not contact you on the day to wish you a happy birthday. Still I should not make excuses. I am sure that you had a great day and this year will be as wonderful and exciting as all the past years of your life have been. I remember that you have a mix tape called Paul’s music. Hope that on occasions you play that and reminisce
Fond regards

I listen to a mix tape by Paul Humphreys while reading “Love is a Mix Tape” by Rob Sheffield to reminisce…
Dear Sherry
I am delighted that the The Paul’s music mix tape is played as part of your reminiscing. Birthdays can be so much fun and excitement - balloons are always wonderful to set a mood and make celebrations more memorable.
Fondest and warm regards
