Not ‘gonna be’, am

Today is the day,

I turn ….

fifty,

that’s right girls,

the big 5-0,

no Hawai in sight

🙂

Can’t you just hear the theme song??

ear worm!!!

 

All joking aside,

I have been telling everyone,

for a year,

at least

😛

I’m gonna be fifty,

and now,

I am.

Feels good,

don’t feel old,

feel like I have an exciting,

chapter of my life,

beginning.

Since they removed my alien,

I feel ,

great,

better,

than I have in years.

The improved body image,

is also a big part of that,

and,

not to be underestimated.

Big week,

the first anniversary of the death,

of my dear friend,

my anarchist,

it isn’t easier living without him,

but,

I feel grateful to have had him,

as a friend,

and confidante,

and,

after my surgery and recovery,

and,

the realization of the extent of my luck,

not everyone is as lucky(:

I feel great,

truly,

and I hear,

fifty is the new thirty,

woo hoo,

bring it on,

Happy Birthday from me,

to me.

 

Later girls,

BB
