The Story of Me


Well, this journey all started 36 yrs ago when I entered this world at 1:52am AST. I was born in a small town hospital by the doctor who is still my family's doctor. I am the youngest of 3, the 2nd daughter. I have a brother who's the middle child.

I was named after my uncle who was killed 3 wks after my older sister was born. She was supposed to have this name, but my mom named her something else. My uncle was a little ticked & made my mom promise the next daughter would be named for the 2 of them. She kept that promise, but she did consider calling my Trudy, for a name (ugh!).

So, after a few hours of labour, I came into this world making a huge racket and things haven't changed. On Saturday, January 5, 1974 at 1:52am ADT, weighing 8lbs 6oz, Beverley Anne Nickerson entered into the world. I have the male spelling of the name, Beverley and my middle name is after my mom's, Anna, just drop the 'a' & add an 'e'.

Every year, I either stay up to see my birthday or I set the alarm a few minutes beforehand to be awake to turn another year older. This year, I will probably stay awake. I do this also for my son's birthday in July. He was born at 1:35am AST.

I'm not sure if I'll be on tomorrow, I have some plans to go out with a new friend to go Pagan shopping, then I have my son for dinner, where we'll eat copious amounts of chocolate cake. I hope you all have a wonderful day tomorrow. I hope that the Great Mother blesses you all. That is my birthday wish.

Love & Light!!

Happy, Happy Birthday! Cheers to another fantastic year! And 36 is a good year - at least the first four months have been great for me!

Happy Birthday. 36 somehow sounds much better than 35. I turned 35 on the 1st and it just sounds old.

I hope you have fun shopping with your new friend. It's always nice when we find someone we have things in common with.

Awesome! I love "by the doctor who is still my family's doctor." Truly a Family Doctor, that is cool. Today was also my co-worker's birthday (31st). Hope you totally enjoyed it. And hope you enjoyed the cake, chocolate is always the best.
