65


 

This past Friday was the BIG 65. I do not feel any different. Honestly, I don't know what 65 is supposed to feel like. Do I feel old? Hell no! Do I feel 30? Nope, not that either. People constantly tell me I do not look my age. I blame the Navy for that.

I don't think anyone knows what old is any more. If you ever hear me yelling "get off my lawn," I am kidding. I may get older, but I refuse to get old.
 
This weekend was great fun! Stephen made sure of that. He took me out to Cafe Navarre, a really nice South Bend dining venue. We then took a short walk through downtown South Bend. Our Friday movie night was a silly romp (Victor, Victoria). It's as fun today as when it came out in 1982 (a monumental year for me, incidentally)!

On Saturday, the guys and I went bowling, something I've not done in nearly a decade!
 
Stephen engineered the whole weekend. It was great magical fun. We also went Glo light Putt Putt Golf. I've never touched a golf club in my life. I wanted to go Go-karting but we'll do that some other time. We all bought a five-dollar play card but I was a tad bit grumpy that they didn't have any games that interested me. Too bad they didn't have the old arcade game Tempest. I could play that for hours!

Stephen, I love you and how special you made this weekend! Thank you (your birthday is coming in November... woo hoo)!

When I was in high school, I ran around with my friends Adele, Randy, and Phyllis. I was the "baby" of the bunch, something I constantly remind them of... until I catch up with them, that is. LoL!

Wes was out of town this weekend so he and I will get together sometime soon.

Lastly, I really am touched by all the texts, calls, emails, and Facebook birthday wishes from friends and family. I am blessed beyond compare. There were too many to respond to so please know I am gratified you all took time out of your day to wish me well. I thank you all who made this a great weekend!
