Today I am celebrating the 18th anniversary of my 25th birthday. You do the math. I already know the answer.
I am quite comfortable with the number. Once I hit 40, the numbers lost their daunting prowess. Of course when I was much younger, I imagined my life to be at a different stage by now. No matter, I have learned to go with the flow.
Other things I’ve learned:
*Simple pleasures are what make me tick, and I never take them for granted.
*I have no tolerance for drama or BS, for the most part I have eliminated them from my life.
*Any day that I have a conversation with my niece is a fantastic day.
*There are times that you don’t necessarily like each member of your family but you always love them.
I’ll leave you with a couple favorite birthday quotes:
To me, old age is always fifteen years older than I am.
- Bernard M. Baruch
Middle age is when you've met so many people that every new person you meet reminds you of someone else.
- Ogden Nash
A birthday is just the first day of another 365-day journey around the sun. Enjoy the trip!

Happy Birthday! :-)
You're younger than Robert. He's still living like an 18 yr old.. and looking like it! I'm sure you do too.
Reading those quotes, I must be fast approaching middle age.. lol
Happy Birthday!
I'm celebrating my 2nd anniversary of my 29th birthday in two weeks... I've noticed I'm retaining more water than normal.
I hear there are more hills to climb.
Happy Birthday !
Good attitude. It's the little things that make life worthwhile.
25+18 is the perfect age for a woman, in my humble opinion :)
Happy Birthday, Bishy...
((I remembered, btw...))
Tell Billy Bob I say hello and it's HIS loss.
((LOL))
Chandira, Mona, Old Guy, Gareth and HFS:
Thanks for the birthday wishes.
Mona happy early birthday to you.
Gareth, let's talk ;-)
HFS I am happy to send Billy Bob back your way ;-Þ
That depends if you're interested in talking to an "older man". I'm 18+31 :)
Sorry this is a late post, you know me....better late than never. We did a fun job celebrating our respective birthdays, considering I'm 8 yrs. ahead of you......sometimes I feel like 90, but most times I give the young 'uns a go for their money at work....so, you're only as young as you feel. (now where is my Advil bottle????)
