So today is it - the big 5 - 0! I don't care too much about numbers. I am not afraid of my age.
I have always been happy to move on from one year to the next. I do admit that turning 30 was a surprise just because the number seemed kind of old. Then turning 40 wasn't a big deal in terms of the number, but physically, there were some real changes! Now 50. As I said, I am not afraid of my age, but half a century seems kind of daunting! It seemed like it was so far away, and suddenly, here it is! Can you say colonoscopy?! Rats!
I got lovely cards from family and friends - including 2 from my former co-workers - and they are all hilarious! This morning, Steve showed me pictures of a manor house (which looks like a castle) down near Limerick and asked if I wanted to go. I thought he was kidding - but he had already booked it. Woohoo!
See this getting older thing really isn't so bad! I don't care if it's all downhill from here - it's gonna be a helluva ride! Cheers!
