Congratulations ... what a wonderful surprise! I am coming right behind you at 60 on the 26th of this month!
Best surprise party I ever had ... given to me on December 15th instead of the anticlimatic birthday the day after Christmas.
Although while my mom was alive we had a birthday tradition ... she'd give me "X" amount of $$ for my birthday and we'd shop the after Christmas sales and she'd help me pick out whatever I liked. I do miss her so much. She passed away on Dec 23, 2005, we made arrangements on Christmas Eve and my cousin reminded me I didn't want to have the funeral on my birthday so we delayed until Dec 27th. So I get the happy with the sad but it's all good ... I'll see her again one day!

Margee I'll try to get one from the girls
IBQLTN I am sorry you don't have your Mum anymore.
My mum is heading for the sad end with Dementia but hopefully the aneurysm will take her first so her end is quick-- she is hoping for the same end too. My "next to me " sister is taking her back to her place after Xmas for 6 months because youngest sister "who knew all" now says take her & I don't care what you do with her. I tried to explain how Mum would behave but she said she knew what to expect .& was very capable to look after her. MMM frustrating !!!!
