Happy BIrthday to Me

72.

Little Cuter says I am not elderly, not in my 70's.  Mid-eighties might be another story..... but why go there right now?  

John Steinbeck, Elizabeth Taylor, a favorite cousin, and I all share this birthdate.  It comes at a lull in the holiday calendar and right in the middle of the snowbirds' season.  Many friends come to town; I consider them all birthday gifts.

We'll go to dinner with the usual suspects at a 40 year old Italian restaurant none of us have ever tried.  It has unlimited garlic bread.  Elastic waist pants will be in order.

I've had ecards and physical cards and pre-birthday texts.  I'll go to Prince tomorrow and get some birthday hugs (these things have a way of becomng known, it seems) after a birthday breakfast with Taos Bubbe.  

72 is starting out quite well.

Facebook told me this morning that it is YOUR day. Happy Happy Birthday!. Seventy two will be a good year, I just feel it, as I too celebrate that number later in the year. We are not elderly, just older, and I hope, wiser. One of the first graders asked two weeks ago if I was in school when the dinosaurs became extinct. Not quite. They left before I arrived.

Happy Birthday! 72 is young! Now I am approaching 80 and I'm thinking elderly. It doesn't help that my body is acting so old.
Celebrate yourself well.
