Another year… strange, though, that I usually feel older with a birthday, but this year I feel younger… maybe it’s that so many of my friends are younger. Anyway, honestly, it wasn’t the birthday that I had hoped & planned for, but it was good none the less. The Music Ministry Seminar is going on right now and Saturday they were still in
Liepaja. This means that Chris, Ieva & Andis and my friend Lizzy who is here from the US for the seminar, were all gone. Chris came home Friday night and Saturday we drove back to Liepaja. It was so to see see everyone again. It seems like we’ve all been apart for so much longer than just a week. Anyway, as part of the seminar some of the students were playing at the Latvia’s First Rock Cafe, which included the birthday song for me. (I like to be embarrassed like that.) After the concert the 4 of us went to the beach for a couple hours and hung out before we had to head back before the doors were locked.
33 years old. I can’t believe I’ve been around that long. ;-) It became somewhat of a joke that this year I turned 23… many people even believed me. Cool.
