Humph..According to my buddy Phyllis "50 is the new 30". I prefer to look at it that way ;) I had a Cinderella kind of birthday where I was surprised and honored from sunup to sundown by friends and family showing their love. Two of my girlfriends really outdid themselves by totally surprising me with a party where we met for dinner. Old and dear friends gathered to usher me into the fifth decade. We had a blast, which was totally needed by this old gal. Thanks to everybody who wished me a Happy Birthday both online and off. You ALL rock.
