Do you know anyone who isn’t happy about their b Do you know anyone who isn’t happy about their birthday? I do! I grew up listening to my dad complain about every single birthday starting at age 29, oh my. Of course, now that he’s 84 he says he really IS old, lol. But I’ve been hearing it from him for 50 years! 

Instead of telling me that I will be just fine turning 60 (in August) my dad recently said to me “yeah, 60 isn’t that great! I hated it!” lol. I told him he shouldn’t be saying that to me, and I laughed. I do hope my kids will take age in stride, as I do.

I feel that turning 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, and beyond is a privilege. Not everyone gets to turn any of those ages. My friend Belinda may she rest in peace, will never get to turn 60. 

I will continue to be excited about every single day of every single age, and pump myself up for every birthday, including milestone celebrations because the way I see it, if I turn 60 kicking and screaming, in five or ten more years I will be so sad that I wasted my time and energy like that.

So yeah, you will find me planning birthdays and celebrating the fact that despite the odds, I am still here! For the first time, this year I will be having a destination celebration!
