How does it feel to be half a century?
I don't feel very much different physically than I did yesterday. Emotionally, I still feel like a kid sometimes.
So what does it feel like to be 50?
It feels ... like me, I guess.
It was a wonderful day! We went to see Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events. The movie was very good! Jim Carrey is a terrific actor and was delightfully evil. The movie was rather dark, though, full of deaths and other mayhem. Still, I'm glad we saw it.
After that, TB, Heidi, Kristin & I went to TGIFriday's. Billy had to work, which was a real bummer, and so did Linda. Little T was at Kennan's. Dinner and dessert was delicious though!
TB gave me the most beautiful gift -- a gold mother's necklace with the kids' birthstones. I have been wanting a necklace or ring like that for years and years. I'd pointed out something to the kids hoping would take the hint but they didn't. TB, who is the most sweetest and thoughtful person alive, went ahead and got the necklace because I wanted it so much. It is a perfect fit. I like shorter necklaces and the mother's heart rest just below my collar bone. I love him so much! I keep touching the necklace over and over. It's like I keep checking to make sure it's real ... and it is!
