Okay, in the interest of full disclosure, this is 2nd Man typing but I had to get 1st Man to help me figure out how to log in and post this. It's not as easy as I tease him about being so easy, HA. So it wasn't entirely a surprise to him but I wanted to make sure I let everyone know that today is his birthday because he wouldn't do it himself.
And it is not just any birthday, but the big FIVE-OH!
I am thankful for every day we have and I know that our farm, small as it may be, as unfinished or incomplete as it may be, is the ultimate birthday wish for both of us and I'm glad to share the journey.
Happy Birthday to you!!
Many Happies, Ist Man. The 50's club isn't so bad - I can highly recommend it :) Just like whisky, we mature and improve with age lol
ReplyDeleteThanks 2nd Man - for letting us know.
I sure hope so. I kind of feel like that actually, best is yet to come! Thank you!
DeleteHappy Birthday, 1st Man!! And many more! You're not getting older, just better.
ReplyDeleteAnd remember, it's better to be the Big 5-0 instead of the Big 6 (feet!)-under! :)
Great Birthday card, 2nd Man! I love it!
DeleteIsn't the image great? Amen about the big 6 Ha!
DeleteHappy Birthday 1st man! (Nice job 2nd man!) I have been on the dark side of 50 for 5 years now and it is grand indeed!! Love being over 50 and having a blast being back at school with all these cute 20 year olds...who only see me as their mum or grandmum..still life after 50 is fabulous!

good feelings, good friends,

DeleteA very happy 50th! So glad that 2nd man let us know so we could send our birthday greetings. Whatcha doing to celebrate? Big party under the party tree? New gadget? A trip to the thrift store? A special cake?
ReplyDeleteThera are some new things, a few, I'll blog about in the coming posts. And I'm sure you saw the menu post, ha. Thank you much, you are very kind!!
DeleteHappy Birthday! 1st Man
ReplyDeleteYou are still soooo young.
I actually feel younger that my biological age, I don't 'feel' 50 if that makes sense. Thanks!!!
DeleteHappy Birthday! Have a great day on this very special mile stone birthday!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely a milestone but doesn't seem real for some reason, I just don't feel 50. Thank you for the kind words!!
DeleteHappy birthday 1st Man. Wishing you a wonderful 50th, and remember, it's just a number like any other number. It's how you feel inside that counts. Bet you never thought you'd one day be half a century old!! Don't think about it too much, it messes with your head!
ReplyDeleteOn the inside I really feel maybe 30? I do try to keep it out of my head, if it sounds old I feel like it might make me old, ha. I'm sticking with 30 something. :-)
DeleteAwesome. Another stepping stone accomplished. Happy Happy!
ReplyDeleteAmen!! Thank you!!!! Big hugs!!
DeleteMany, many Happies.
ReplyDeleteAnd with 2nd man on side we KNOW you will have a wonderful birthday dinner.
Thank you thank you!!! And yes, you already saw how yummy it was, ha.
DeleteHappy Happy Joy Joy, hope you get a birthday toy/ Maybe a tractor, maybe a plow/I'm sure you'll love it anyhow,
ReplyDeleteWelcome to 50, it rocks! (Thanks for tipping us off 2nd Man!)
You are awesome! Thanks for that. Alas no tractor or plow but maybe a couple new toys. More on that later. :-)
DeleteHappy, happy birthday! May this new year bring you joy and happiness always!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, you are very sweet with the wishes!!!
DeleteWell Happy Birthday to both of you! Sorry I missed 2nd mans that was a couple days ago :-(
ReplyDeleteRemember your brain says you are 18 but the minute you start to split firewood your body will quickly remind you you're not! :-)
LOL! Great comment, and amen. Yep, yesterday when I was holding that dang edger for an hour, I really felt every moment of 50, ha.
DeleteYou are very kind, thank you sir!! Much appreciated!!
1st Man trying to keep secrets from us!!!! Happy Birthday!!!! Fifty is the new thirty. Enjoy.
ReplyDeleteI like that, i was just saying above, if i had to say what I 'feel' it's 30. Wonderful!! Thank you again!!!
DeleteHappy, happy special birthday!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful day.
Very sweet, thanks! :-)
DeleteHappy B Day!!! Oh ya that 50 sneaks up on you doesn't it.. Caught me just this last January too ROFL, its kinda hard to believe isn't it... But I have decided that we need to approach this age thing like wine... we just get better with age! :O) Hope you had a great B Day
ReplyDeleteI really can't wrap my head around because i don't feel it (most of the time, ha). Hey, we love wine, I totally understand. :-)
DeleteThanks again!
Happy Birthday! 50 is good! Time goes by fast....we used to call it over the hill! LOL! Since I have seen 50, I will just say the best is yet to come!
ReplyDeleteThanks, I truly feel like the best is yet to come. :-)
DeleteMany thanks!!!
Happy Birthday! Fifty is still young-ish.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
Young-ish, great way to think about it. I can't say it's young but all things considered, it IS young-ISH huh? thanks for the wishes!!!
DeleteLove the card. Happy of happiest birthdays!
ReplyDeleteHello sweet lady! Thank you for that!!!
DeleteA milestone indeed! Welcome to the club. Happy Birthday and enjoy another year of farming and fun. Thanks for all of the inspirational posts. Personally, I think 50 is the new 30, or at least that's how I'm dealing with the whole business.
ReplyDeleteIt's a big club apparently, ha. 30 is my number too and I'm sticking with it!! ;-)
DeleteHappy 50th, And if you think THIS is great---wait til you hit 60 !! lol Fondest birthday wishes and I hope your day was top o' the mark !!!! xoxoxoxoxoxox
ReplyDeleteYou are too sweet. Thank you so much!!! It was a great weekend. Big hugs back to you!
DeleteHappy Birthday! I hope it is great:)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, you are so very kind. Hugs to you!!
Delete1st Man,
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday!!! You're only as old as you feel........29 and holding :-)
Sending Hugs and Warm Birthday Wishes From Your Friends in Oklahoma.
Sandy and Bulldog Man
Thank you both. What awesome friends to have!!! 29 for sure!! ;-)
DeleteHappy birthday, 1st Man! It's a day late because I read the emails rather than the website, lol, but hope you had a fantastic day! I'm sure 2nd man treated you to an evening to remember!
ReplyDeleteHey, I will take birthday wishes any day. Thank you so very much, you're very kind!!!!
DeleteOn my goodness, Happy Birthday! Funny how changing the front numbers seems more monumental than changing the second ones. You know what they say though, age is all a matter of mind, if you don't mind, it doesn't matter. :)
ReplyDeleteWonderful comment, I like that. I don't mind AT ALL, LOL! You're right though, 49 didn't see so big but just one year later, BOOM, FIFTY! ;-)
DeleteHappy Birthday, 1st Man!! And many more.
ReplyDeleteTHANKS!!!!!! You rock!!
DeleteHappy, Happy Birthday 1st man!
ReplyDeleteHow kind you are, thanks much!!!
