It's Just a Number......







That's what everyone says about the "round" birthdays. That, along with some nonsense about only being as old as you feel, or something like that. Whatever. Anyway, here are some other numbers that went along with my "round" birthday last week:


720 = months old
2880 = weeks old
20, 160 = days old
483,840 = hours old
29,030,400 = minutes old



But here are the real interesting numbers from that week:

1 = Number of daughters who traveled across the Atlantic Ocean to surprise me on my day!
7,315 = Approximate number of miles she traveled from Norway.
150 = My heartrate when I saw her standing on my front porch.

17 = Number of times I said, "I don't believe this! You're here!"
15 = Number of drinks I consumed that day starting with mimosas in the morning, lattes at mid-morning, drinks with lunch, champagne in the limo, wine with dinner, and martinis at the Red Door.
1:00 a.m. = Time the limo driver poured us out on the driveway at the end of the night.
0 = Number of keys any of us had to get into the house in our delightfully drunken state!

Wow! What a birthday! What a surprise! What a girl!! She managed to turn what could have been a somewhat depressing day into what will go down as the most memorable of celebrations!


THANK YOU, JEDA!!!

skinnybitch's mom...WOW! Those are some big numbers, but nowhere near big enough to match the amount of fun we had. I thank you too, JEDA and also you skinnybitch.

You can only be young once. But you can always be immature. I felt young and immature. What a fun day. THANKS JEDA for the best suprise party ever.....
