What the F...

Forty-Eight?

Yep.  And Counting.
Been reading Younger Next Year.  That was recommended to me, I think Last Year, when I was younger. Ha.
But basically it is saying I can continue to do what I'm currently doing at a high level for many more years.


If you read it, you will know.
If you believe it, it will be true.
If you do it, you will achieve it.
As simple as that.

Well not that simple.
Rest is an important component here.
Taking care of your body is not any more important than when you were younger, it's just that now, recovery takes longer.  So being alert to any differences is key, eating right (eating better).

there's no 'i' in my last name
One of my buddies is 3 years older than me and kicks my butt on the bike.  Actually there's 2 that kick my behind, the other is 5 yrs older.

But it gives me some kind of measuring stick as i get older, that I can and have kicked butts 1/2 my age.  I was surprised that I had the 2nd fastest lap on my 24HR team.  Of course after I laid down that lap.  I wanted to go lie down, til next weekend.  But I had 3 more to go.  And the other 3 weren't as fast.  Mostly cuz it was night and it was slick.  The last one, I was tired, but Mother Nature provided some urgency for me to giddy up by raining on my head.  And hurry up I did and threw my tent and stuff in to the boot of our car and head to my sister's to collect my kid.

I'm not building that wall!

For all those that add an 'i' into my last name.
I hate to tell you, but there is no 'i'.  And I'm no Mexican.  So I'm not building that Trump Wall.

My birthday is another day, to me.
It was a pretty nice day, it was simple, nothing fancy, honouring me, sort of, and being with the people that love me.  That's more than I could ask for.

Our old friend and neighbour Suet even came by with her two dogs.
6 month old Cailey and 6 yr old Maggie (the french bulldog looking one).

I even remembered texting the folks that share my birthday.
Which means that I've delayed my memory loss by 1 more year.
Woo hoo!

Happy Birthday
