I trust that you will be as wonderful as all my other years. (Give or take a few. Ahem.)
The wisdom of 50 is a marvelous thing.
Fresh starts all across the board for me this year.
More health. More quiet time. More turning inward. More intentional living. More me, less others.
Hello, fifty.

ReplyDeleteThank you, dear Jody. You are too ... so beautiful in and out.
DeleteME TOO! I do I do!
I still swear you aren't 50 And today your eyes are elf grey like Tolkien's so I suspect you are secretly 2700 years old - quite young for one of them. I wish you a Happy Birthday and a Happy New Year.
ReplyDeleteOK, this is my favorite comment of all time.
DeleteI have Tokein-grey eyes? I do, don't I? My Daddy's eyes.
I feel that I am older than this life; that being a good thing.
THANK YOU dear friend. xoxoxo

DeleteHappy Birthday! I don't know if you were intentionally riffing on Gloria Steinem's This Is What 50 looks like, but your hairstyle makes me remember the article and you've certainly got the right attitude, kiddo.

I LOVE Gloria so that is a huge compliment to me Miss Annie.
DeleteOne of my favorite quotes of all time from Gloria:
We've begun to raise daughters more like sons... but few have the courage to raise our sons more like our daughters.

ReplyDeleteJust drink a lot of wine, eat a lot of cheese and don't worry too much about anything. That'll keep you looking young.

Thanks, friend.
A very, very happy birthday and no way do you look 50! Nope! Being honest too!
ReplyDeleteIt's those "late in life" babies that keep us young, Tera.
