65! How did that happen?

I wanted to post today to #thoughtfuldailypost tag that was started by @wesphilbin

Tomorrow is my birthday. I love that the universe celebrates it every year with shooting stars. The Perseid meteor shower is already underway, but it will reach its peak from Sunday, Aug. 11 through Tuesday, Aug. 13. The full moon might dim them down this year, but it will still be worth remembering to look up! #lookingup

My kids and grandkids are arriving this morning and have a party planned to celebrate my birthday tomorrow. They have invited 30 people and have hired caterers to bring the food!

It is odd to think about turning 65 years old, when I really don't feel that old at all...at least while I am sitting in my comfy chair!

Hope everyone has a great weekend and remember to watch for meteors!

I hope you're having an amazing celebration @melinda010100, and may all your birthday wishes come true!
@fotosdenada(67)· 2572d
Wow, sounds like quite the birthday plans! Happy BD!

It's a little disappointing that the meteor shower lined up with the full moon this year, but they should still be visible... ish. I was considering getting up at 3 AM after moonset on the besrt night, but I don't know if that'll happen. Plus, the last time I took photos of the meteor shower, someone called the police on me and they ruined a ten-minute long exposure by leaving their headlights on, pointed right at the camera.

Congratulations! You made it to another year! Wishing you a Happy 65th Birthday and many happy returns of the day. @Melinda We never feel our age. Sometimes, we feel younger, sometimes we feel older. ☺️
@janton(71)· 2573d
Howdy Melinda! I sure can relate! I've been out in the heat working my tail off all summer just like I always have except I shorten the work day. I blame that on steemit though, not my age! I still haven't used a Senior Citizen discount yet, that just doesn't sound right, that's for old people!

I'm so glad the family is coming over, that sounds like quite the party!
@steemimages(57)· 2573d
Wow has a year gone by already? It only seems like a few months ago that I was hunting the Perseid's.

Have a great birthday Mel with the family. 65? Just a number!
