Don't complain of getting old. Many of your peers cannot.

Happy birthday! Here's a song for you...
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!! :d Most funny birthday song ever! By The Arrogant Worms! - YouTube!

Thanks all for the good wishes.

I never noticed getting older until my son was born. He just turned 5 and I am like almost 10 times older than that! I guess if I am going to live to 100 I am finally middle age.

I am going to use the Celsius thing!

Congrat's on making this far!

I'm just a few steps behind so you can be my mentor when I hit the big Five-O.

I'll be hitting that number this year too.

I am both surprised and happy I've lived this long

Started watching diet and exercise more at 49. Probably fitter in 50s than 40s...but lost a bit of energy/stamina for daily work activities. Working all-nighters seems much more punishing.

Since I turned 50, I think that, overall, I'm a happier person.

Now is the time to remember the time you came dragging into to work without going home and discovering you had stripper glitter all over your face.
