-- Sally O'Malley, SNL
Yep, I turned 50 years old yesterday. Hey, it's only a number. You're only as old as you feel, or something like that. Well, I feel great. Life begins at 50, right?
I rode over to Mom & Dad's, but they weren't home. Then, I went over to Leon's, and taped up his handlebars with the Roubaix tape that I gave to him for his birthday.

Caitlin made me a beautiful chart, so I can track my progress towards the big ride.
Me and my family (minus Tanya and Phoebe), in front of Skaneateles Lake. Lynn and the kids took me for a surprise lunch at Doug's Fish Fry...my all-time favorite! (Sorry, Tans. We'll have to Photoshop you in ;-)
Lynn made me some delicious yellow cupcakes w/chocolate frosting! Yum-yum! It was a great day...
Happy birthday Dad! Looks like a really fun day! Of course, Catie would come up with a really nice and creative gift. Maybe Phoebs and I can console each other for being the only ones not in the family photo :)
ReplyDeleteFifty sounds pretty young to me. Think of it as the half-way point.
ReplyDeleteHappy belated. Found your blog (obviously). Cool. Not sure if or how to become a "follower". Do I have to drink the kool-aid? Or maybe better to become a stalker?
