i took one of my bff’s on a birthday-road trip to VA with me this past weekend,
(well…kind-of.)
On the road with the birthday girl! (So far this is the oldest she has ever been.)
she turned fifty and that’s gettin’ old,
(well…kind-of.)
Coffee to increase stamina for the trip ahead! (Coffee is nice…but cake frosting would be better.) Potty-stops become important at a golden age! (One step closer to adult underpants.)
if anyone else wants a similar birthday-treat I promise it’s lots of fun,
(well..kind of.)
A Birthday Camel Ride! (and it wasn’t even Wednseday.) A birthday dinner Fiesta! (Because hot flashes are just your inner child playing with matches.) A birthday-Mama riding-llama! Feeding the llama 50 shades of hay??? Everyone knows…llamas eat tots! Just a friendly reminder…you are now older than dirt! Because at 50 you need a daily dose of iron! A good LAUGH & a long sleep are the best cures in the world! (And tonight I fell asleep with you in my heart!)
I know there were no presents
and no ice cream & cake,
but… AT LEAST this trip WAS WRAPPED IN LOTS OF LOVE with A SLICE OF HUGS AND SCOOPS OF BLESSINGS,
(and I think that’s kind-of neat!)
Thanking God for this birthday-road-trip with my bff!
hugs n’ blessings with hopes it doesn’t take another 50 before we go on our next road-trip together!
You are only young once, but you can be immature for a lifetime!

Dear FLAT-GAYLE,
I’m sorry if this was a little “cheesy,” but I hope it made you smile! (While you still have teeth, lol!)
