Today I'm Grateful for:-
Today I'm grateful for the people in my life who go way over and above the call of duty.
Most of you know that I am turning 50 in a few weeks. And to 'celebrate' the fact, my lovely family is throwing me a big bash at one of the restaurants in Fremantle.
Please do not get me wrong, I really do appreciate all the trouble they are going to, and that they want to do this for me, but heck, I hate parties. Especially if I am the guest of honour. I don't like being the centre of attention at the best of times. Still, if this is what they want, I don't want to spoil their fun. The bit I don't like is that they are having such a hard time with the venue.. I really dislike venues who make contracts with people and then change it along the way, even up to two weeks before the party! That is just bad business. Anyway, if you want to know more about that issue, go to Lizzie's blog http://alittlebitoflotsofthings.blogspot.com/
So what I am grateful for today are Lizzie and Hubby and Jam who are going out of their way to organise this party for me. They have not only organised it, food, beverages, decorations, music, seating arrangements, everything from the ground up, but they have helped me find a dress, had it altered, gone to the hairdressers with me, invited everyone they know, and heaven knows what else that goes with doing something like this. It is totally awesome of them.
I'm sorry you guys have had such a hard time doing this, but I am grateful for the sentiment behind it. I love you too. :) And Yes, I do know that it is to celebrate what my life has been and also what it will be in the next 50 years.
Kisses
Julie
