Today is my 54th Birthday. I wish I still had the body I had when I was 30 but the mind and experience I have today. So far I have been spoiled by my good friend Rhonda in USA who has told everybody on all the yahoogroups we share that it is my birthday and I have had heaps of birthday wishes which i love. I am still a big kid at heart and love all the attention-My friend in Switzerland sent me a lovely present of little Teddy Bears. I love Bears so they were exciting to open today.I have also received lots of cards from friends around the world. One of my special yr 9 students remembered it as my birthday and wished me happy birthday which i thought was lovely. Brian offered during the week to take me out for dinner tonight so haven't decided yet whether to go to Sydney or Parramatta-will decide soon. He hasn't wished me Happy Birthday yet. You would think after 26 yrs of knowing me that he would realise I still like to be made feel special and I like to get presents. So ia m going out soon to spoil myself. I will get back on here later and tell you all what I did and got.

It is days like these that i really miss my Parents. Birthdays and Christmases have never been the same since they left this Earth. I miss them so much. I do know I will see them again one day and these days will be back to normal again. I had better go before I cry all over the keyboard.
