Feel sorry for me.
I turn 67 tomorrow and my sister sent me a birthday card with money in it. I'm pathetic.

Turns out that $50 was even more supportive than I thought!
At least you have a sister who loves you, and she is generous too. What a wonderful thing! You are obviously a real gift to each other. IMHO, there is nothing pathetic about it.
Have a great day and a wonderful new year! 
I hope it is lots of money and you buy something interesting with it... or pay a bill 
I'll be 67 this year. But money in cards will cheer me up 
I turned 68 last month and the only birthday card I received was from the management of the apartment building where I live. (I am on fb and did receive numerous birthday wishes, though.)
But it didn't bother me. I bought myself a birthday trip and I plan to do the same next year!
Every day is an opportunity.
Hope you use your birthday $$ for something fun!
And Happy Birthday!
Which is worse? 
for his birthday. For the rest of the evening, all he could think about was how many long johns he could buy with that $15.
So, care to tell us just how many long johns you plan on buying with your birthday money?
