Happy birthday!! 🥳 I’ve decided this year to stop feeling bad for not working ‘normal’ hours. In fact, I’m excited. If I get up at 9 and work a bit, then have a nap after lunch and work 4-6 and then a bit in the evening, that is fine. I’m too old to try and make myself do what doesn’t work for my body/brain.
Wishing you a wonderful half century birthday. I can honestly say (having romped through the fifties and now in the sixties) that life really does get better the older yet get. Sure, your knees creak, and a Nana nap is sometimes needed, but the wisdom and understanding that comes as we age is just wonderful 💃
Happy Birthday!🎈 That’s a great list! I’m certainly too old to plug on with things that no longer bring me joy and I’ll never be too old to try something new 😊 xxx
I volunteer at my local food bank where I'm the youngest and when I took in cake to celebrate my birthday I had several people tell me I'm still a youngster 😄
Bravo! And happy birthday! I discovered this week I’m not too old to go horse riding. And today I realised I’m too old for underwired bras. Can’t be bothered with that, other softer stretchier options are available!
Happy belated birthday! What an inspiring list!🙏🙏 I realized recently that I'm not too old to learn how to ride a bicycle. And that there is nothing to be ashamed of😅
Also-bloomin-lutely! I remember reading that Arianna Huffington decided to tick skiing off her to do list, not because she'd been skiing but because it was on the list as a 'should' and she'd decided she didn't want to ski so she could tick it off 😄

Such freedom in this, Deb! 🙌
Happy birthday!
Thanks, Annabel!
Happy birthday! 🥳🎂🥳 I’m too old not to listen to what my intuition is telling me and i’ll never be too old to follow my curiosity! 🙂 x
Oh yes, Penn, I see our intuition as the older, wiser part of us so if we're going to list to anyone, it's them 🤩

Well, now I'm looking forward to my 60th, Sue!
Happy 50th Birthday Gabrielle! This is a great list. Here’s to 50 years of knowing yourself 🎂 🎉🥳 enjoy your celebrations xx
Thanks, Hannah, there's always more to learn about ourselves, right?
Happy birthday, beautiful you ❤️
Thanks, love, been thinking of you x
Have a wonderful birthday, Gabrielle!
Thanks, Jo!

Yes, Jo! When there's always something new to explore why make ourselves stick with something that isn't adding to our lives?
Happy happy birthday Gabrielle! Wow you know yourself so well, I love these lists! Here’s to the next 50 🥳
Thanks, Ingrid, I may know these things but some of them are easier to embody than others… 🧐
Happiest of birthdays!
Thank you!
50? Hah! That's nothing!
Sounds like you've just finally become an adult, and can now finally get on with your real life as the unapologetic YOU!
Now you can plan how you'll enjoy the other half! 😬

Love the specificity, Izzy, burn the underwired bra! 😆
🔥🤣
A great list. I am too old to follow the crowd. Happiest of Birthdays to you xx
Oh yes indeed, Angie, you do you x
