I did it again

On Wednesday I manage to somehow turn another year older.

I don't know how I keep on doing that, but alas it has happened. This year I turned 31.

31!?!?!

Wow, it's hard for me to believe even when I say it out loud.

I'm not gonna lie, I thought this would be a rough birthday for me. Turning 31 with no baby in sight is, well, depressing. Instead of focusing on the one thing I didn't have, I decided to be grateful for all the things I did have.

This year turned out to be one of the best birthdays ever!

We tried to hit up a bunch of places for free birthday stuff. First stop was Krispy Kreme Doughnuts. They no longer give you a full dozen for free, just one now. But let's be honest, no one in their right mind should be eating close to a dozen doughnuts anyways, so they actually did me a favor.

Free Firehouse Sub on your birthday. Heck yes!!!

We were running a little behind at this point because we had a movie to catch. ( Harkins gives free popcorn on your birthday)  So I decided to wrap up the rest of my heaven sent sandwich and eat it in the theater. Home girl is a slow eater.

On the way, as we were getting off the freeway there was a homeless women asking for money. I decided to give her the rest of my untouched delicious sandwich.  As much as I freakin love that sandwich, and I do, it was a humbling reminder to once again be grateful for all the things that I do have. It really is true, charity never faileth. I've actually been praying for more chances to serve, so I don't think running into this sweet lady who was beyond grateful was a coincidence. Plus everyone deserves to partake in the deliciousness that is a Firehouse sub :)
