The one request when I hit the big 50 was no black balloons, over the hill jokes, etc. I think every birthday is a blessing - and I am thankful to have lived this long. But the one thing I got for m fiftieth was my car - a shiny black former FHP patrol car with working spot and pushbumpers, etc. My DH bought it for me since I no longer felt safe driving after our PT Cruiser got hit twice in hit and runs. I get a lot of respect on the road now and enjoy driving my “grocery getter”. Last year he put in window tinting, and a new set of tires for my ride.

Celebrate your day!
