I am 71 years old and just wondered where it all went .We moved to Australia in 1975 from Scotland and it seems that it has gone in the blink of an eye, a lot has happened in that time ,some sad things and many ,many happy things too.I too have no regrets <br />We moved to Tasmania in 2003,apart from the sadness of leaving our family on the mainland it has so far been idylic. I love my piece of Paradise.I hope we have many more years to enjoy it.I wish you good health to enjoy your retirement with HannoMargaret in Tasnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089828552519076506.post-12979749029778905962012-04-24T04:53:54.904+10:002012-04-24T04:53:54.904+10:00Happy Birthday Rhonda - hugs!Happy Birthday Rhonda - hugs!Francescahttp://www.fuoriborgo.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089828552519076506.post-21085624420807920402012-04-23T17:44:02.956+10:002012-04-23T17:44:02.956+10:00Happy Birthday Rhonda!

I always think one should be proud of the age they are. I'm 48 going on 49 but still feel (inside) a lot younger, although my body feels a lot older due to health issues. I had to give up work ten years ago, much before time, unfortunately because of illness.But I have a wonderful husband, do volunteer work, sew, am involved in several community groups and appreciate the good things in my life. <br /><br />I hope you have many more good years to come. I hadn't realised you were a Sunshine Coast local until reading your post about Daisy's Place. We live in a very beautiful part of the world and I so appreciate it.

The paths we take to get there is what defines us as individuals.<br />I am truly glad that our paths have crossed my dear lady.<br /><br />Vicki<br />Trinidad & TobagoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089828552519076506.post-79921068453301079642012-04-17T03:06:24.204+10:002012-04-17T03:06:24.204+10:00Happy Birthday.

Best wishes for your bday sounds like you had a lovely day and I wish you many more. I was lucky enough to get my hands on your book on Sat when I was out shopping with the kids (picking up supplies to make the laundry liquid) the book store had orded one in for someone they phoned her and she didn't want it. So her loss my gain. I also cleaned our bathroom on Fri with bicarb and vinigar for the first time it felt good. Brought a box of tomatoes on Fri for $4.50 and made some home made tom soup and pasta sauce. I feel so inspired by you and am enjoying your book up to the budgeting section so far which bores me but I'm keen to get to the good stuff. Thank you for helping me to be a better person/mother/wife. Bless you.

Both my Mum and my grandmother died at 57, so every day since my 58th birthday has felt like a bonus to me! I have enjoyed all the stages, and when I actually turned 64 last spring, we were on a cruise ship enjoying visiting some places we had never been (Venice, Greece, Rome, Barcelona!) and I asked the piano bar musician to play "When I'm 64" for me. It was wonderful! <br /><br />Barbara M. in NHBarbara M. in NHnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089828552519076506.post-16472145932312891822012-04-17T00:58:03.947+10:002012-04-17T00:58:03.947+10:00Happy Birthday Rhonda!!
