Don't stand so close to me

good monday morning! I have to start off by saying the concert last thurs. rocked. elvis costello was fantastic!! It's funny how you won't hear a song for a long time- even a decade or two and when you finally hear it again you remember it word for word!! the police were terrific! I have to say I felt like I was 15 again. sting, stewart and andy still have it. I was impressed with how cut stings arms were. I mean he is pushing 60 and he was ripped! It makes me want to take better care of myself so I can continue to enjoy life as I get older. speaking of the whole age thing, one thing i noticed at the concert was the vast age range in people. lots of elderly people-- I even noticed a walker or two. Isn't that great!! It is important to enjoy life at all stages. My sister and I certainly had a great time. We had a few youngsters around us who didn't seem to be enjoying themselves and seemed a little hacked off at us because of our excitement. I am pretty sure the young girl next to me didn't know elvis costello or the police. I suspect she was a tag along with her boyfriend. He was having a blast as was his other buddy but all she did was text all night long. Give me a break!! I will say I learned a few things about myself at the concert. 1. I enjoy singing when I can't hear myself sing.( I am totally tone deaf), 2. My bladder is not what it use to be. (I can no longer jump or bounce up and down unless I am wearing depends underpants. 3. Late nights wear me out! ( it took me 2 days to recuperate from the concert. Would I do it again? Absolutely. It was so fun hanging out with my sister and listening to music from early days. It is important to make time to enjoy life.

Today has been busy already. I have been to my daughter's 4th grade tea party. It was lovely!! The children greeted us at the door and walked us to their room. We were served in grand style. The children played several selections on the record and the teacher handed out awards. My daughter was awarded the "Persistant Pupil Award" for working hard, having a positive attitude and never giving up. It was hard for me to keep it together. I am so proud of her. School is something that doesn't come easy for her. She beamed when the teacher gave her the award- my heart was full of joy.

Now I am off to Kindergarten graduation. I have to keep it together but I have this feeling it won't happen. I'll let you know what happens...
