Today is my sixtieth birthday, and I am beginning my sixty-first trip around the sun. I'm very happy that I made it this far !
I didn't know much about celebrating a sixtieth birthday until I had one, but so far, I've found out that it's made for taking the day off from work, having fun with dear husband, and going out for lunch at an excellent local Indian restaurant.
It's also a perfect time to garner birthday cards, to tell people that it's your sixtieth birthday, so that they will wish you happy birthday ( otherwise they wouldn't, since they wouldn't know it was my sixtieth birthday ), and also, banana birthday cake seems to be involved.
Evidently, going to a play with DD and DH on Saturday is also on the schedule.
I've looked back on my life so far, and I'm happy that I made it through the hard times, happy for the good times, and am looking forward to the future. My DH posted pictures of me holding my birthday cake on facebook yesterday, and I look like I'm in a pretty good mood .
Happy, Happy, Birthday and many, many........more. Nas

Thanks for all of the birthday wishes and pictures, and the wonderful Birthday Song. It all makes me very happy. DH & I went to a gem and mineral show today and came home with some loot, including a small, clear ruby ( .77 ct ) that looks like Faygo red pop ( when it fizzes ) for $ 85, 4 beautiful calcite crystals in different colors, a malachite egg ( very small ), a septarian egg ( very nice composite stone with crystals ) for dh ( see example www.geoclassics.com/septarian.htm ) , a trilobite fossile for DH, a picture of DH with his head in the mouth of a t-rex skull model ( he looked good in there ), and an unusual machite formation called botryoidal malachite, which was sold to us by a couple of men from Congo or Zaire. It has tiny green crystals on the top, like this s445.photobucket.com/albums/qq172/n0ekt/Mineral%20Collection/?action=view¤t=Malachite-Botryoidal.jpg&, only smaller.
We had a blast, and considering the loot we got, didn't spend very much. The calcite crystals were in the $ 2 - $ 4 range, and most everything else ws in the $ 12 - $ 22 range. Our feet and hips are sore, but it was worth it all.

Well, Phoenix84, just call me Ms. Tacky then. Don't worry too much about it. I am just in a good mood. It's not like I asked everyone to send me $20 bills. Happy birthday to you, whenever your birthday occurs. And, maybe by the time you're sixty, you'll be nicer about things like this....

Happy Birthday two days late. I didn't get any memo saying revealing your birthday is tacky. Happy 60th plus a couple days.
