I was talking with a friend the other day and realized that I have a case of post dinner theater blues. She said she gets it every time a show ends. I don't think I have had a case this bad before. The blues have been pretty bad this time. I really wasn't sure what was wrong with me. I asked a few close people to keep me in prayer while I worked my way through it. Talking to the friend and realizing that she is probably right certainly did help too.

I am starting to feel better. Learning to reach out instead of climbing inward is one of the best lessons I have learned over the past couple of years.

My Birthday is on Sunday and I was looking forward to a visit from a friend that moved away. Sadly he won't be able to come this weekend. He will be here next month and I will see him then. I am looking forward to that because I really didn't get to see him much before he moved. He sent my a birthday present that has the geek in me very excited. I wasn't thinking clearly when I found the package on my back step or I would have waited until Sunday to open it.

One of my customers at work gave me a card today. This gentleman is kind and I enjoy chatting with him when he comes in the afternoons. His family all live out of state and he seems to enjoy telling stories about them. He is a great story teller and I love listening to them.

I am spending Sunday in a pleasant way. A friend from church that I started to get to know during this last dinner theater invited me out to lunch and I am spending the rest of the day with a family from church that I am close with.

I am looking forward to both of these and I am looking forward to my birthday. I pray that like last year the haunting of my past remain in the past and do not inflict themselves on my present.
