Default Fifty in 2 days!

Hi! I hope you don't mind me popping in here since I'm still 49...for a couple of days, lol. Friday is my fiftieth, and, believe it or not, I'm really excited!

My forties were kind of crappy...both kids going away to school, family crises, WEIGHT GAIN (!), etc. I'm planning on my fifties being exceptionally great! I've also decided to become a crazy old bat, so I can do and say whatever I want.

As this birthday approaches I keep thinking Molly Shannon on Saturday Night Live doing her "Sally O'Malley" character, who would do kicks and lunges while yelling "I'm fifty!"

Anyway, I can't wait to come back here on Friday and say "I'm FIFTY!"

Wow, thank you! I'm on my way out to dinner in a couple of minutes, and thanks to Atkins it's going to be a yummy one! Who else can have filet mignon and creamed spinach and LOSE WEIGHT? (Not Dr. Ornish followers, that's for sure!)
