(491 posts)... we 'grown ups' are just a tad impatient with foolishness....
... being 70 is great - you'll see ....
... your joints may complain or such; but you've had enough life experience at out age to deal with most things....
HAPPY BIRTHDAY and welcome to the club

(13,018 posts)I hit that number Fed 7. No cake and candles. We had a no burn extremely dangerous low humidity rule here. Congrats. This number scared me. But in these times, thankful to reach another.
Wicked Blue
(8,867 posts)I requested a single candle. Not sure I can blow out any more than that.

FailureToCommunicate
(14,605 posts)having only ever used sparklers at night, I had NO IDEA how much smoke they give off!! The smoke alarms went off throughout his entire apartment building.
Everyone was frazzled and upset at first, but eventually sang happy birthday to him. Whew.
Hope your birthday is **almost** that memorable!

As I write this I'm realizing that I'm exactly 51 weeks older than you.
My 70th birthday celebration was last year, March 14th.
Happy Birthday Wicked Blue!
