Drawings year 2 week 40

 

They say it's your birthday

 Happy birthday to me! Yes, it's my birthday today. I can't believe I'm 64 years old today. Where did the years go?

I took Thursday and Friday off from work so I would have a 4 day weekend for my birthday. I have no plans as of the time I am writing this post. (This is actually being scheduled on the 15th) I'll be sure and post about whatever I do. After all anything is fair game when it comes to blog material.

This was me in kindergarten

Not sure how old I was here but under 5 as we moved from this house when I was 5 years old.

And last but not least is me today. Taken at work on a day when I was there by myself. A lot grayer, a lot heavier and whole heck of a lot older. But at least I'm still here to blog about it and that's something worth celebrating.

Friday the 13th

 Just one week ago, it was Friday the 13th. I've never thought it to be a particularly unlucky day. But I did find it rather unlucky to have to scrape frost off my window before heading to work. And the temperature was surely not on my side either.

In the above picture I thought the headlights shining on the forsythia bushes made it look like they were on fire. That would definitely be bad luck

Then I got to work. As I was sitting there a police car went racing by with sirens blaring. It pulled into the plaza parking lot across the street.

I don't know what was going on but that was also bad luck for someone.

Blinded by the light

 It's so nice to see the sun coming out more and more. It does get a bit difficult to drive sometimes when it's trying to blind you though.

The one day on my way home from work I tried to get a picture of how bad it was. Of course I was paying attention to the road so didn't know what I was getting for pictures.

This is in no way meant as a confession that I was attempting to take pictures while driving down the highway. If asked I will deny everything.
