Goal 1 ~ First time that I had lived in a hotel for two weeks; fourteen days of almost doing nothing! Bliss!
Goal 2 ~ First time I touched sixty years of age. Yes! Six decades on this planet earth. It was nice to have celebrated my birthday in beautiful Kota Kinabalu, Sabah
Goal 3 ~ First time becoming a grandmother and welcoming the arrival of our grand-daughter, Cayla Gail Cheow. Stephen and I are overwhelmed by everything about her.
I told Jared and Gwen that this is the best gift ever: a gift that will keep growing and growing.

We had breakfast with this view nearly every day. Except for the morning of the day that Cayla Gail was born. She is more important than food!!!
I do miss it. I also miss the buffet spread even if I'm not a breakfast person. I did enjoy the wide selection of local and western delights and being spoilt for choice with fruits and breads galore.
And after breakfast, we usually return to the room and I always choose to sit by the window to enjoy the view and just feel thankful for all the blessings in my life. I would usually read a bit while Stephen would wander off to the sauna or gym.

For my birthday dinner, Stephen took me to the Club Lounge. Just us, because I'm not a party person and I like things quiet and simple.
We chose to sit by the window looking at the setting sun. This was a moment of bliss for me. As I took in all the ups and downs in my life, I could see that it has led me to this particular place in time. I am feeling contented with all who are around me and with me.
There weren't many people, at any one time but it made the ambience quiet and romantic! I would like to go back again with the children. The setting is so elegant and the food was absolutely delicious.
While not a drinker by any stretch of the imagination, I did indulge in this Singapore Sling. I had never ever tried it even after living in Singapore for over 7 years now. I decided that I like it very much and had two! Heck! I'm sixty only once!
And then, stepping out on the balcony, we had this magnificent and glorious sunset for an unforgettable and fitting close to my celebration of 60 years of living.

At the end of any day or year or milestone, we need to reflect on all that is good in our lives. We also need to be thankful to the people who love us, unconditionally.
Thank you to God for an absobloominglutely unforgettable celebration of love and life. I am so blessed. I am so very blessed.
Guess what? We're going back to KK again, soon!!
