Thank you

Thank You,

It's another new year for me. Happy Birthday! And a full moon to boot...I got some new gel nails, a new hair color and a new pedicure to start me off right.

You see at the beginning of the year I said "this is going to be my year." Of course I have said that for, hmmmmmm, at least, one, two, three...OK, a lot of years now. Not just these past four with the 5 surgeries because there have been many struggling times in my life to go along with the good ones. But today, I've decided to change the day that I say it...

"THIS IS GOING TO BE MY YEAR!"

But you know...just being here and making it through the last 4 years, because they rank right up there at the top of difficult times. OK, be truthful here...these last four have been the toughest of my life. There, I said it. And making it to another birthday really says something to me.

You can use all the sayings, hang in there, keep your chin up, etc. but to continue on...to get past the moments where you just want to crawl under the covers and never come out...to have the guts to kick adversity, and yourself in the ass and say "GET GOING" is what it's all about for me.

So today, on my birthday, I thank you God and all your helpers above and on earth, who continue to nudge me along in life and give me the courage, strength and blind faith to live life to the best of my ability, with what I am and what I have, with no regrets!

Thank You!

Love, Tia
