Happy Birthday, I hope you won lots of pennies.

Happy Birthday!! Being 50 is NOT bad at all!! I have found that my kids view it as 'ancient' so I can get away with being eccentric and they put it down to "old age" LOL

I hope you day is filled with love and laughter! :)

Happy Birthday!
My theory is that age is only a state of mind. Just hope you have a good time at the penny slots, love those as well as the nickle & dime ones. :) :)

Marsye,

I used to have a memo pad that had a lovely graphic of a VERY pregnant woman on it, and it said, "I'd rather be 40 than Pregnant".

So, would you rather be 50? Or Pregnant?

Happy birthday to you! 8-)

Happy birthday! 50 is nothing; you're just a child!

MadQuilter 01-11-2010 12:12 PM

Don't get your car towed and you'll be just fine. (that was the memorable moment of my 50th after DH got sprayed with gas at the pump and a bunch of other stuff....)

Have the best birthday ever.

We share this day - but when I hit 50, I didn't realize I was in my PRIME! and that's exactly where you are! ENJOY!!! It's amazing how much faster each succeeding year goes.

I'd be happy to celebrate my 50 again. Happy Birthday. Just Enjoy It.

Happy Birthday!! When I turned 50, my husband put up signs in the yard for the neighbors to see. The first one said, "Mary is in mourning", the second one said "She ain't thrilled" The third one said "She's 50 today" and the fourth one said "And I'm gonna get killed". Then he had black balloons all over the yard and black creape paper in the trees. The neighbors were calling to say Happy Birthday and please don't kill him.......Is was the best birthday I ever had! Age is an atitude.

Happy Birthday!! Mine is this May, too. I'm glad you got to go first. Does it hurt? :-D I'm glad using your pennies made you feel better!!

Happy Birthday.....50 didn't bother me. Neither did 40 or 60....but 30 kicked my butt! Cried for two weeks....LOL

No such thing as the "big one" I think its just another day in paradise and I hope you dont use up all your pennies! We dont even have penny slots here anymore :( hard to get a nickel machine any longer. Happy Birthday Girlie. My mom is going to be 90 this year. I think that is much closer to the BIG ONE than you are so you are just a spring chicken. Its who you stand next to that makes you feel young. Hit the senior home. You will be much more uplifted on how young you are than wasting pennies to make.. pennies!

Happy Belated Birthday! You know, it's REALLY true that if you keep a good attitude, no matter how great today is - it gets BETTER! At least that's what I've experienced in my life - and I have some years on you kiddo! Despite the storms that come now and again, there's always sunshine ahead. (and maybe even a big win on the penny slots) As an old Clairol ad used to say "Age is totally irrelevant"

Monarchlover 01-12-2010 02:13 PM

Fifty is Nifty!!! Happy Day and GOOD LUCK at the casino. I know someone who hit a HUGE jackpot on pennies! :)

martha jo 01-12-2010 04:00 PM
