I don’t usually brag, but….. I hit the big 5 0 this week

As a lot of people say, wasn’t sure I’d make it this long with all my younger day’s behaviors.
Started out the day getting a 33yo silver amalgamate filling replaced with the sweet new composite stuff. Then cleaned my, and my neighbor’s, gutters for a few hours. Pin oak leaves, oak sausages, and an inch of pollen make for some pretty shitty work. All followed by Dinner and a movie.
Here’s to the next decade! Maybe.

Getting older just means doing sooooooo much work and stuff that is not fun. I am 52 today, had a 6000 dollar bridge come out on st. Patrick s day... with two crowns that hold in...I don't like it but I got one crown replaced and I have financial decisions to make...one thing at a time. My two teenagers are selfish and kinds showed it last night when we went out. It's okay. Happy birthday 🎉. You know what....I don't really care. I'll fix the problems one at a time...I celebrated but have to work today... just let my two dogs out

Happy Birthday! And welcome!
I turned 50 last year while I was on a work trip. That didn't stop me from informing everyone I was turning 50. I figured that, at best I'd get a glass of wine out of it (I had one glass and slept the entire way home on the plane because I'm 50 and can't handle booze now) and at worst I'd become eligible for "voluntary retirement" which hasn't happened yet. But my husband did have a cake waiting for me when I got home. 'Twas delightful. I expected to be bummed - middle aged women and all - but I'm kind of happy about it.

I’m turning 50 later this year and I plan on celebrating by getting my shingles vaccine the moment the pharmacy opens in the morning. I had shingles a couple years ago (during a hurricane, no less), never again
Ain’t nothing more patriotic for a Bicentennial Baby than getting a vaccine

Welcome to the half-century club! By now you should be done with the angst and embarrassment of youth and are well into the ennui and embarrassment of middle age. See the difference?
I do hope it's a good day, year and decade.

Happy birthday! 50 didn't bother me too much. Like I reached a milestone and was happy I made it.
