Oh crud -- I'm 50

I awoke this morning to the bleeping of my cell phone alarm. It seems that today is my birthday ... the golden anniversary* of my birth. I have now experienced 50 years of life and just working up to this milestone has been murder. All I have to do now is find a place to hide the body until the heat dies down. With summer approaching, that might take some time.

[In the Why Not? Dept.]

*Feel free to send me ample amounts of gold, if you please. Also note that my birth falls in April, thus making diamonds my birthstone. You can throw a few of them into the pot as well. ;)

Well, I read that elderly people say that each decade is better than the last. Of course, I do wonder about their memory.

I guess it happens to the best of us (well, not the BEST, they die young, I've heard).

I have this lovely gold chain with diamonds for you - now where exactly should I send it?

Hey, Happy Birthday! You know what they say about getting older, it beats the other alternative. My dh will turn 50 this year and I follow in about 2.5 years...Until 120 years all in good health of body, mind, heart and soul.
