Today’s my birthday!
“Some say age ain’t nothing but a number. We say it’s so much more — that each year brings distinct pleasures and grueling challenges, unique thrills and soul-shaking epiphanies, and a fresh chance, always, to wrest more joy from your life.”
Isn’t this a positive — and realistic — way to look at a new year – instead of dreading being another year older?

Happy Birthday, Diane! I hope you had a wonderful day!
I love to read all of your columns about biking and other exercise, and especially the SUP! No wonder you look amazing!
Thanks so much for the b.d. wishes and kind words! It was a pretty low-key birthday but I have a couple fun things planned for this weekend.
Happy Belated Birthday Diane!!! I am catching up on last weeks blogs, it was a crazy week. Your online dating horrors blogs have re-enforced my refusal to go that route:) Anyway hope your day was pleasant.
