Several years ago, when I was around 19, I was talking to my roommate's boyfriend about the Age Thing... he was 20 or 21 and he talked about how weird it felt to turn 20 or 21, I don't remember which...when my time for 20 or 21 came, it was no biggie...
Over the years, I don't think any of my ages felt weird or anything like that...
But today I am 50... 5-0... fifty... five-oh... f i f t y... hehehe... for some reason that feels weird. Fifty? It's half of 100... and I hope I get to see 100, I want to be a sassy, open-minded but opinionated, funky, creative, happy old lady of 100...heck, I'll be happy to be a sassy, open-minded but opinionated, funky, creative, happy old lady of 60, 70, 80 or 90!! :) Or any number in between...
It's only a number...but it just feels weird...
I don't feel as immortal as I did when I was younger... I've seen loved ones die, my grandma, mom, uncle, dad in my 20s and 30s...
My oldest 2 are 12 and will be 13 next year... my youngest will be 6 soon and still has his baby cuteness...
Anyway Happy Birthday To Me!
Gary & the boys will be busy doing something in the kitchen later, no idea what for sure, but we'll find out!
