Whoo Hooo! bring on the chocolate

Yes, it is true, today is my 60th. I am wondering how it managed to sneak up and take me unawares *grin*

60 really is just a number, I do not count, I go by how I feel, and I do not feel 60, though, not being here before, I don't know what 60 is supposed to feel like. Seems to me it feels pretty good.

I thought I would share some of my favorite quotes.

Growing old is mandatory; growing up is optional.
~Chili Davis

A well adjusted woman is one who not only knows what she wants for her birthday, but even knows what she's going to exchange it for.

I still have a full deck; I just shuffle slower now.

The secret of staying young is to live honestly, eat slowly, and lie about your age.
~Lucille Ball

Inside every older person is a younger person wondering what happened.
~Jennifer Yane

Old age is not for sissies.
--Bette Davis

"Count your life by smiles, not tears. Count your age by friends, not years."

"I don´t believe in aging. I believe in forever altering ones aspect to the sun." Virginia Woolf

You are only as old as you act!

"So many candles... so little cake."

"The more candles, the bigger the wish."

"Birthdays are good for you: the more you have the longer you live." Unknown source

    I love that Bette Davis quote.

  5. Happy Birthday, Jennifer. You may have a small glass of sherry to celebrate.

    Many more to come, I hope.

    To me, you ARE the personification of the old maxim, "You're as young as you feel"

    Keep 'em in the X-ring.
