I have had an unbelievable birthday. I went on a date for lunch with a guy I met online and he FLEW in to take me out. He shows up with a dozen roses. Come to find out he's a millionaire. And then he buys me a new GPS as a gift. On the first date. I'm a little wary but being glad for today going so well and as someone had wished miracles just for me. Then tonight I got off work early, went out with my one friend and had some drinks and sang karaoke. Just got home and ready for bed! It has been a whirlwind birthday and extremely surprising to say the least. Who gets invited to lunch by a millionaire and is told to pick whatever you want at the mall as a gift? WOW!
Anyway, I'm grateful for today and for the wonderful surprises and no overthinking just accepting a gift as a gift. Odd as it is....
I had a really hard time finding something for myself because I thought I really don't need anything. All I could think about is getting stuff for the kids. But here I am the proud owner of a new gps which has already been SOOOOOO helpful on my 2nd job. I did still get a needed item rather than a fluffy wanted item but still it was very expensive and who would have guessed my birthday would turn out like that? Funny thing is I wished for hp to send my man that I have been waiting for to me. This may not be him but it gives me hope that there's one out there and I'm fabulous the way I am!
Even funnier, remember all those cracks about finding a lawyer boyfriend back in the day? Ya, he's a lawyer... LMAO What are the odds? A year ago I would have been obsessing about whether we were going to get married and live happily ever after. Now I am happy that I have what I have and if it turns out to be more then so be it and if not that's fine too!
WoW!! Did ya pinch yourself...before or after; or....before and after? What a blow the doors down event!! I've heard "Be careful what you pray for; you might get it", and this is the exclamation point on that statement.
Are you kidding?!? I was waiting for the "and then I woke up..." Does he have a brother? Happy Birthday CG!!!!! I don't think "Meet a millionaire" is part of the promises of this program but maybe we should make it one!! I am so glad you had a good time! This is your life so live it!!!!
CG that is sooo coool!!! You so TOTALLY DESERVE this! and kudos for not going into the future and happily ever after with it all, just goes to show that you are taking your program with you wherever you go- nice work! I am so glad you had a good birthday. I know how good that can feel. Hugs, J.
Good for you to take it for what it is. What an incredible gift. I know I obsess endlessly over how will I meet someone. How will I move on? I am so proud and in awe of you.
