Thursday, 7/4/2013


Day 185, 7/4/2013 - Eat, Anne prepared a wonderful breakfast for us. French Toast, fresh peaches and blueberries. We snacked for lunch and dinner was a 4th of July extravaganza! Seven beautiful women came together to celebrate and each brought their contribution to the smorgasbord. Spinach/chicken/Asiago cheese links, cucumbers, baked beans, chips & dips, salads, desserts (including Tiramisu worth fighting over...lol!). Pray, I selfishly prayed that the rain would stop. After all, I am on a beach vacation. I was soon to realize that my prayers were answered but God had a different plan. The prayer was answered with the gift of quality time with Anne, the day together indoors, not at the beach. We laughed, cried, played games, even did Yoga and other mind & body strengthening exercises. We were blessed with a day of everything except sunning at the beach! Joy, my joy was in meeting five new friends, Pat, Lori, Joan, Susan and Sarah. Like Anne and I, we laughed, cried, got to know each other and celebrated July 4th together. The joy that topped off the evening was Sparkers! We were all like kids again as we twirled, spun, danced and laughed until the last sparkler was extinguished. A joyous end to the celebration!
