What a week! An unforgettable week at that!
As I noted in my Birthday Project Giveaway post earlier, this week represented the last few days of my thirties, as my 40th birthday was yesterday. And…WOW…my thirties went out with a bang.
I spent most of the week in a lot of pain and finally ended up in the ER on Friday. The last few hours of my thirties were spent learning that I appeared to have nothing too serious (praise the Lord!) but nothing could concretely be diagnosed (ugh!). And so…the medical “drama” is not quite over (or so it seems). Enough of that, however…
The Birthday Project has been a BLAST! However, with my medical setback…I haven’t quite finished. I started 10 days before my birthday, so I’m allowing myself the rest of this week to finish, if needed. I’ll be sure to post about all of the RAOKs (Random Acts of Kindness) I was able to perform. It truly was something I will never forget, and I pray that it becomes a routine practice of mine – showing RAOKs to people – and not just something to do for special occasions!
I’ll post more about the birthday festivities tomorrow. But, let’s just say…I was blessed beyond measure. This being my first birthday without Chris could have been a VERY difficult day emotionally, but my friends made sure I was well taken care of, and I honestly felt deeply loved!
And…now…time to announce the winner of the grand prize from the Birthday Project Giveaway:
