My birthday

I turned 58 on Monday. Yay. I took the day off work to celebrate. Didn't do a darn thing (other than read and play games on my phone). Here is my haul of presents...

Jane got me the box of chocolates and Neil Young's 'Decade' on cd (we used to have the album, and it is on our phones, but this is one of my favorite "greatest hits"-type collections). The Feipels got me a couple notebooks, nuts, and the kids made me cards. Long-time blogging friend, Jim, got me a notebook also. Pretty sweet!

The only real celebrating was done at the Feipel farm the day before my birthday. And I just noticed the dog's butt in this pic! Ha!

I am not feeling much of anything on this birthday. It seems everything has gone to hell, plus hobbling around in the walking boot, having no church associations or much in the way of a social life, and another year working a terrible job... I guess I'm hoping this year may turn around. Or not.

Numbers 6:24-26

“The Lord bless you
    and keep you;
²⁵ the Lord make his face shine on you
    and be gracious to you;
²⁶ the Lord turn his face toward you
    and give you peace.”
