I’m forty-one today.
Halfway to middle age . . . Hey, being a late bloomer has its perks.
Not only am I one year older than this post, it’s two days past my first blogoversary.
It’s been an interesting year. Not in a “may you live in interesting times” oddly polite ancient curse way either, but in a “how cool is THAT!” way.
I’ve met an astonishing number of Very Amazing and Brilliant People, some of whom have become good friends—with me. Thank you all for your support, encouragement, music, sympathy, comments, videos, righteous indignation, stories, and humor.
I’ve not only learned how to shoot an automatic (badly) and pick locks (better) and drive police car (aced it), I’ve had more than my fair share of Learning Experiences™ and have lived to kvetch about it.
My children have survived another year, both physically and emotionally.
I’m still writing.
And I’ve managed to photograph some seriously sexy potatoes along the way.
I’m forty-one today.
Feels good.
Happy Birthday, dahling! How strange that we’ve never met and yet you’re one of my favorite people! Today belongs to you!!!!
Thanks, MSB! You are absolutely a Very Amazing and Brilliant Person!
Happy Birthday! (and we’ll work on your skills with an automatic if you’d like)
Thanks, Grace.
You’re on, if I ever get my FOID card. And yes, I did mail the application. 😛
I remember 41, you spring chicken!
Hope you had an amazing day.
Check your email.

Thank you, Downith–I had a lovely day, followed by a wonderful eCard that a Duchess sent me. XD
Hands down, hottest 41 year old I know. 🙂 Happy Birthday, dear. I’m so glad it’s been a beautiful year!
Lisa, it wouldn’t have been the same year without you!
Your e-mail made me cry, in a very good way. Your friendship is such a gift!
Happy birthday from the new girl on the block! Best wishes and it’s lovely watching the words bounce between you all. Ciao cat
Thanks, Cat!
