63!



Getting older is a breeze, since if you let it, it just happens, and so I did.
Did you know that all numbers have some significance? Sure you do, since you are brilliant! But here are some things that you may or may not have known about this combo of numerals…

“63 See: 36, but less outgoing.
36  Very creative.”

Thanks for that! But I beg to differ with that, since I am very outgoing!

“Represent the organization, 3, in the cosmic harmony, 60, producing the full development of all things - 6+3 = 9 - according to R. Allendy. It would represent also the complete series of the evolutionary cycles - 7x9 = 63 - and as odd, it would mark the passage towards a final state that would be the number 64.”


And than there is Psalm 63 and it was very long to transfer, but here’s the link: http://www.biblemeanings.info/Bible/Psalms/ch63.htm

Now, my reasoning for going into a little background on that particular numerical pair’s background… on its own it is quite ordinary and not noteworthy, but when put into context with all those above possibilities, it is something!
Sure monetarily it is a nice wad of a little cash.
And if a group of that many people got together it would be a small crowd?
Many of my friends have turned this age or will be this year.
Personally in our immediate family of three here, counting Skipper too, since it was at one time that dogs years were in increments of sevens and so 9X7 = 63, which he is than too, and Hubby has been 63 for a while now, and today I joined the gang! TA DA! Three at 63, whatever could that mean? But multiply that times all my school chums that have or will turn 63 and you really have something, huh? Not to mention my one cousin who is my identical birthday twin! A lot to think about, hmm?

We had just the two of us for the celebration though with eating out at the Crabhouse in Punta Gorda Florida after my gym/rehab workout. I so wanted blue claw crabs like we used to catch in our traps, but they were plum out. Just as well, really, the market value is $35 for a dozen! We used to catch them for free, never paid for them before; had no idea they were that dear. Fortunately, I had a ten dollar off birthday coupon, since we both had soup and dinners. Hubby chose clam chowder and a blackened grouper sandwich; I went for the Laishley Crabhouse Cobb salad with the she crab soup, our usual beverages, coffee for Hubby and iced tea for me with extra lemons.

Last night with the nasty storms I didn’t get to sleep until the wee hours, I think it was close to four A.M., and awoke at 6:35 A.M. My tummy was not too good before we left and when there I became very cold and could not eat and so we took it home.

Even when we came home I was still not right and so I took to bed and tried to sleep, while talking to number one son who called to wish me a very happy birthday! Hubby listened to make my homemade recipe for chicken noodle soup. You see that last night we had cooked a whole chicken and so veggies and spices and no egg noodles were incorporated into the known to cure the worst of anything ills, Jewish Penicillin!

But even that would not go down, only my club soda, warm.

Hubby did buy me an adorable ice cream cake.
Tiny! I have never seen one this small and just right for the two of us to have a serving and perhaps another next time?
I waited awhile and did blow out those six red and three yellow, signifying my allotment for this year and with no fear to burn down the house!
Before...

After...



On this note of thanks to all who wished me a happy birthday and any who had no idea it was my birthday, don’t worry, be happy, and allow me to be the very first to wish all of you a very happy good night and ask you to kindly count all your blessings and share all those overages with you know who and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear!

PS Oddly enough, I did have a slice of my ice cream cake and you know, somehow, so far, it is staying down! HOORAY! My wish as a kid! You had to be here or there too!
