Today I am 50, sometimes i never thought I would get here and that 50 is old, it 6:38 AM and pondering all the questions of life.... I am going to wait a hour before heading to my 26 yr old sons room and jumping on the bed to wake up him and cait, see they are taking me to universal studios theme park LOL. Pictures when I get back
When I read the title, I assumed you were talking about 50 mpg. Congrats on turning 50, hopefully the next 50 will be smooth sailing.
Happy Birthday! 50 is the new 30 only with the added bonus of a bit of wisdom. Can't wait for the pictures!!!
Happy Birthday Sandy, Like I said before, I had the best part of my life in my 50s. I am going to have fun now that I'm 60. So please enjoy life and get rid of those psychedelic tears and go back to your beautiful hallucinating eyes of your previous avatar. Be Happy, it is your Birthday.
Happy Birthday! Don't forget, Michael Jackson died when he was 50, and everyone said how young he was.
Congratulations Sandy. Is this font size large enough with your reading glasses or should I use bigger next time?
Your post is sooooo right on the mark. I'm 51 and I've always had great 20 - 20 vision. Almost to the day when I turned 50 my eyesight degraded and I had to start wearing reading glasses for anything closer than 2 feet. It took a month for them to change and then they stabilized. The eye doctor said, yup, you turned 50, what did you expect? Note, Walgreen's has great cheapo 1/2 reading glasses. Happy birthday, Sandy.
I will Share what i found in my email from a friend Perks of reaching 50 or being over 60 and heading towards 70! 1. Kidnappers are not very interested in you. 2. In a hostage situation you are likely to be released first. 3. No one expects you to run--anywhere. 4. People call at 9 PM and ask, did I wake you? 5. People no longer view you as a hypochondriac. 6.. There is nothing left to learn the hard way. 7. Things you buy now won't wear out. 8. You can eat supper at 4 pm. 9. You can live without sex but not your glasses. 10. You get into heated arguments about pension plans. 11. You no longer think of speed limits as a challenge. 12. You quit trying to hold your stomach in no matter who walks into the room. 13.. You sing along with elevator music. 14. Your eyes won't get much worse. 15 . Your investment in health insurance is finally beginning to pay off. 16. Your joints are more accurate meteorologists than the national weather service. 17. Your secrets are safe with your friends because they can't remember them either. 18. Your supply of brain cells is finally down to manageable size. 19. You can't remember who sent you this list. And you notice these are all in Big Print for your convenience. Forward this to every one you can remember right now! And Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.
Sandy look at it this way - Even though you call yourself a hippie chick you’re at least 5 years too young for that (I know cause I’m a leftover surfer and older than you). 50 is young because “old” is at least 10 years older than you and me (no matter how old we are). I’ll bet you still think your 30…at least in your mind (until your body tells you otherwise). So…Happy Birthday girl…let the good times begin…
