I am at the stage where I no longer celebrate but commiserate my birthdays.

On my birthday a few years ago, a 20-something year old at work asked me if it was a 'special' one. When I said No, she said I suppose they're all special at your age (I was in my early 50s at the time so not quite at death's door). So now I look at them that way too - every one is a bonus!

I'm now wondering exactly how old she thought you were! Or conversely, what she might consider a 'special' birthday.
And I'm thinking Phrynne has a great suggestion there!

Nah! Should have done but I just stood there, speechless!
She was one of those annoyingly precious airheads, who we were all very pleased to see leave!
(By 'special' birthday I think she meant a 40, 50 or 60th as we'd had a few of those at the time).
Happy belated birthday to Samantha for yesterday π
And a big happy birthday to Leonie for today! πππ

Happy Birthday-WEEK, Carolyn! Iβm a fan of stretching things out to give people plenty of time to celebrate things. Hope you have fun (and time to read).
