Celerbrations

I am feeling pretty good today. I really don't know why cause today is my daddy's birthday. He's been dead for 7 years. Usually this time of the year is hard for me, but I am not sad this time or depressed. Don't get me wrong I miss my dad more than anything in the world. It's no doubt about it I was a daddy's girl for sure. We spent a lot of time together. He was the only person that listened to the same type of music that I listened to. What was so special about him, was his sense of humor it was sick pretty much like mine. He wasn't a very affectionate man (the type to show his feelings) but I could always tell how he felt, especially about me and my daughter. We were everything to him and he was everything to us. My daddy died on October 23, 1999 when he was 72 years old if he could have just held on for 3 more days he would have been 73. I am glad I don't have any regrets when I think of him. I took good care of him. Even though he was never sick, he got around like a 30 year old, always on the go. If I had the chance to tell him one thing right now and I know he was listening I would just simply say "Daddy I LOVE YOU SO MUCH AND DON"T YOU EVER FORGET THAT." I know if he was still alive he would be so proud of me. I can hear him say right now, "You are a hard worker. Good Job that's how I raised you to be, Independent." It's really strange cause when I think about him it don't feel like he has been dead that long. It's not a day go by that I dont' think about him. I know he would not want me to be sitting around all sad and depressed anyway. I guess that is why I am smiling and feeling really good. Plus I just got my test back and I got a 100% on it that helped to. lol


Anyway it's time for me to go home and do some fun homework yippee!!!
