50 WHAT ? Birthday Uggh

 I thought turning 50 was horrible but 50 what? I don't know if it is because it is such a odd number instead of even or what? Is it because I can't seem to get a grip on getting older or what? Is it that I remember back when grandma's were only that old? Either way I think of it, it doesn't make any sense to me. Does it mean time needs to slow down so we never have to face the fact? Sara said this pic looks like I am doing the five dollar foot long . I actually thought I was one of the American Idol contestants. Call 55 to vote after the show!

 Well, Mandy was so sweet to only put on 11 candles but  let me know that each candle stood for 5 years. What?

Thank heavens for that thought. I think I would have past out blowing them all out. Oh well, I look at it this way. Having a GREAT family that I can share those 50 what ?, years with makes my Birthdays well worth it. Thanks to my family for being with me. The memories are ALL that matters in life. One day you will be 50 what? I LOVE YOU ALL
