Other businesses might offer discounts too – Ricki’s gives you $10 dollars off, and so does Coles book stores.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nIt’s awesome.<\/p>\n
So that’s part of my plan tomorrow. Which kinda makes up for stuff like having to splurge on a license plate sticker for your car.\u00a0 Whoever decided we should do that on our birthday really doesn’t know how celebrations work. (smile)<\/p>\n
I love my birthday. I’m not afraid of getting older. I see it as a gift that not everybody gets.<\/p>\n
Bring on 48. I’m excited for the year ahead.<\/p>\n
It’s been good so far. I’ve had some amazing events happen in my life. I’m surrounded by incredible people.\u00a0 I’ve met some really cool people. I’ve done some amazing things. There’s also been a lot of struggle and a lot of sadness and tears and it all brings me to who I am today and for all of it – I am thankful.<\/p>\n
