I thought it might be time for a retrospective of my life. Here’s a gallery that shows some of where I’ve been, and where I am now. I can see the choices I made then, and that gives me more options for the choices I am making now. Happy Birthday to me. I am 62 years old today.

- 2013 -You don’t know how you look until you get your picture took.
You have guts, I’ll give you that! I wouldn’t post my pictures (from then to now)… LOL
But I don’t need to – my sisters do all of that without regret and on Facebook no less! 🙂
Not having sisters, I have to do it myself. 😉 I’m practicing being “transparent” which means that if I can know who I am, why not share?
Happy Birthday! What a fun way to celebrate and to remember. My Mom passed away on December 15th, 2012. Today would have been her 91st birthday. I miss her. I have lots of pictures etched in my memory of how she impacted my life for good. Thanks for sharing your life with us!
Thanks for sharing about your mom. Knowing who you are includes knowing where you’ve been and who you were then. It’s so wonderful that you had your mom so long. My mom is 80 and we are getting closer all the time.
Happy Birthday!!!! You are fabulous! My favorite is voodoo chili, loving purple as I do. Where did you get that great head piece. You rock!
Thank you for noticing that I ROCK ;-D The headpiece is just a couple yards of fabric and a belly dance necklace that I bought at Dragon Con. The dress was a gift and came from Holy Clothing.
