My Big Day

 This is the day I turn 74!

Dan said this was a hard birthday for him and I understand why.

I'm starting my 75th year on this planet.

Wow!

Here's what I looked like a very long time ago.





I don't look like that now. Below I'm all dressed up for my nephew's wedding in October.


Nothing special planned for this day though we are going out for breakfast to celebrate.

Well Happy birthday, Marcia! You're just a little ahead of me, about 7 months. Amazing how fast we got to this age. You look wonderful. Have a very special day.

I'm so glad to know some 70s gals...I've got 3 friends in their 60s and one in her 80s that I do things with. Happiest of Birthday wishes...may your 75th trip around the sun be just full of wonderful things and continued health, wealth and love.

Happy Birthday. I didn't realise we were so close in age. You are just 5 months ahead of me. Enjoy your day.

Happy belated birthday, Marcia! You look so nice. Now I feel close to you as I’m turning 74 next March. We’d share many in common regardless of our cultural background.
