50 :: Up Close And Personal

My Mom and sisters

discovered something on a trip

that I couldn't attend.

The hotel was equipped with a lighted

magnifying mirror.

The way I understand it

they found unwanted facial hairs that

had slipped under the radar and they left knowing

one thing for sure...

we all had to have one.

I received mine today from mom

for my birthday.

Let me tell you...

at 8x magnification I got an eye full.

Asking myself questions like...

hmmm...

when did that happen?

Real positive self talk like...

thank God for cover-up!

Nothing left to do but laugh...

and flip to the other

1x magnification...

quick!

So, this is what 50 looks like.

Happy Birthday to me!
