Today is my 53rd birthday........I don't FEEL 53! Time goes by so quickly, folks; don't spend it trying to pelase others....please, and take care, of yourself first!
I'm spending my day doing a few hours of work, then going to a French bakery/restaurant with friends for REALLY good French Press coffee and pastries, then this evening I'll be having pie (hey, it's my birthday........I deserve sweets!) and festivities with my family.
I hope all of you are having a wonderful day........celebrate my big day with dessert, and thanks for being such a great community!

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.Happy Birthday my dear. Enjoy this day and every day. You are at the very peak of your life and will remain so for another 10 - 15 years then age starts to take it's toll on the body and as you say, "time goes by so quickly" and it accelerates as you age. It is your life and the only life you will ever have so live it in a way that makes you happy and strive to do or cause no harm.
I wish you well and success in finding what you are searching for here and in your life.

Thank you!
@AzVixen52 np. Hope it was a good one.
I forget I'm 55 until I run upon contemporaries with full on adult children who I don't feel that much different from & it kinda freaks me out.

I'd say it gets less freaky, but I don't know how true that would be....alas.
You also don't look 53. Happy Birthday.

Thank you. While I don't mind looking my age, I don't want to look older than I am. I appreciate your kind words.
Happiest of birthdays to you! I know the felling of realizing one's age. I am 71 and simply cannot believe it. My husband is 80 and I wonder how this happened? Time is a precious commodity. Enjoy every second.

Thank you!
I hope you had a wonderful b-day. Nothing like being with friends and enjoying tasty desserts and coffee. It's the little things...
I can almost remember 53; I was probably in about the best physical shape of my life at that age, due to lots of mountainbiking.

Oh, so you're the reason I decided to treat myself to a piece of chocolate an hour ago. Happy Birthday!! Wishing you many, many more fabulous years ahead. ?

Thank you! And...…..there is always someone celebrating a birthday....eat more chocolate! 
Happy Birthday from tomorrow. (That's because it is the day after here (Wednesday) while it is your birthday there! There is a very good reason why you don't feel 53! The little girl inside is still very much alive. So make it her birthday. Eat the pie and two deserts!

Thank you! I took your advice from the future(hee hee) and have pie, macaroon, almond cake, croissant, and pot au crème. I don't feel a bit guilty!
Enjoy your birthday young lady.
