Marydoll
BTW, I am 68 😱 in a few weeks, so not far behind you, Maddy.
But at least you’re still in your sixties Marydoll. Turning seventy last month was the worst birthday I’ve ever had in terms of age. Being seventy makes me feel old. It’s the number, I just don’t like it, but it’s better than the alternative at least.
I had some lovely celebrations. We all went out for afternoon tea in New Zealand, my husband and daughter and the grandchildren, and I had a gorgeous cake made. I was going to be seventy in March, and my daughter was forty in March, so we celebrated early, in January, and we celebrated 110 together. We took pictures and a lady I used to work with said I looked fifty, not seventy. That was very kind of her, but as foxie says, we are whatever age we are, however we look. Then we did it all again on the actual date of my birthday. Out again to a nice hotel for afternoon tea and this time with my husband and sons and families. It’s all been lovely, but I’m still seventy!
