Tout va bien

Oh, what a week! And, yay, Friday!

I am happy that daughter #1 is coming home this weekend to celebrate her belated birthday.  Celebrations are important. Life is too short not to recognize milestones–no matter how minimal–with presents and good food and drink and dance parties. I highly recommend doing so whenever.

If you don’t have a birthday or a PhD oral defense to celebrate, there are plenty of other things  about which to party today.

For instance, today is the 81st anniversary of the publication of The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien.

Today is the 37th anniversary of the day Sandra Day O’Connor was unanimously approved by the U.S. Senate as the first female Supreme Court justice. Unanimously!

Bill Murray turns 68 today.

So whatever you’ve got going on (or not) have fun this weekend. Seize the day.

As for you, continue in what you have learned and firmly believed, knowing from whom you learned it…
