49

So I turned 49 today.  I had quite the birthday with lots of texts, emails, phone calls, flowers, cards and celebration.  In fact nearly 10 PM, I’m just getting home from dinner out with a friend and finally gave Shelly a call to return the mutual birthday wishes.

Forty-Nine is weird.  I knew it was coming and have been thinking about it simply because my mom was 49 when she died.  I was 25 when that happened and today when I was wishing my niece Taylor a happy 25th birthday the similarity was not lost on me.  I will enjoy this year but I am really looking forward to turning 50 in 364 more days!  Thanks to everyone for the lovely birthday wishes.
