The Month of July

Wow!! As I sit to type about my last golf lesson and the things I've been doing the last few weeks, I suddenly realized that it's the end of the month...where did July go?

July is my favorite month of the year and that is why I love summer so much.
July is also my birth month. I am like a kid at Christmas when it comes to my birthday.

This year I had planned an adventurous birthday trip to Belize. This is one of the dozens of places I would love to visit. But because of some unorganized people I didn't get to go to Belize but instead went to Miami and a cruise over to the Bahamas. Not exactly what I had planned but it was still a great birthday trip/vacation. My girlfriend, Tamesha and I went together to share our birthday today (as we did last year). Her birthday is two days after mine.
We left on Sunday afternoon heading for South Beach to get our party on. We started off a little slow on Sunday, traveling and all but made up on Monday. We hung out by the pool sipping cocktails, reflecting on the accomplishments, disappoints and things we must change for the upcoming year. After being in Miami for two days, I realized that I must take up a Spanish class. Everywhere we would go, someone would walk up to me and start speaking Spanish. The waitress at Chili's told me that I look like a puerto rican, assuming I can speaking Spanish. This is will be one of my new year resolutions for the new year. In case you don't know, I think of my birth date, as my new year, because it's another year older and starting a new year with a new birth date. My sister says it's like a national holiday because not only me, but other folks too, take off from work and travel with me for my new year.

So here is it, July 28 and I'm thinking were did this month go. Last time I looked it was 4th of July weekend and we were hanging out at Carla's and now the month is gone. Maybe I was having to much fun....

But anyway, it's over, and I've had yet another great birthday and I'm so thankful to be healthy and able to see another birthday!!! Some folks are not so lucky.

I'm thinking next year of throwing myself a birthday party. I wanted to wait until I turned the big 4 0, but was thinking why wait, I might not live that long. As they say.... life is short, and I'm a definite believer in that.

Until next time....
