Starting Out My Day

My birthday started out beautifully. Waking up, I started with my usual routine of thanking God for another day. But today was different because it was my birthday. To be honest, I avoided this day. I didn’t want to face another year of growing old. But I’ve learned to think positively, and because of this new thought process, I have considered my situation to be a joyous occasion. I have learned to embrace this glorious age. That being so, let’s get back to my day… After I prayed and thanked God for blessing me to see another birthday, I then proceeded to head downstairs to make my famous pancakes and bacon. But to my surprise, I was stopped by my significant other. And was told that breakfast was coming to me. I yelled out in excitement and proceeded to get dressed. He then went to get breakfast, as I prepared for the start of a celebration!

What’s in the Box?

Just like you, I was eager to see what was inside the box. Wrapped up with bows and wrapping paper, it made me feel like a kid again. But since you asked, I’ll share..

It was an Orbea Gain Electric Bike! I wanted this bike ever since my family came to visit, and we rode electric bikes around the city. We absolutely loved it! It changed my entire bike riding experience! Here’s to another outlet from CRNA school!

Dinner

After an evening of riding, this young lady was exhausted! But our lovely day was not over. It was time for a candlelight dinner, right in the essence of our beautiful dining room. And of course, a song to wish me a Happy Birthday, with dessert to follow.

So this is how I spent my birthday in quarantine. No, it wasn’t our planned trip to Aruba, but it was extraordinary. Thanks to my significant other, classmates, and loved ones, this COVID-19 birthday will never be forgotten!
