It's the age it is, and the walls are where they are and there's not a lot you can do about them. What you can do, though is personalise it and make it yours. The history is unimportant - what IS important is what you now do with it.<br /><br />May your next 40 years be even more fun than your last :)<br /><br />Kathy - I hope you had a great day :)<br /><br />Adila - thank you - and I did! :)<br /><br />Marke - Where motorsports are concerned, I used to be an avid Formula 1 follower, but eventually I just kept falling asleep - see <a href="http://kimayres.blogspot.co.uk/2006/04/losing-interest-in-my-favourite-sport.html" rel="nofollow">Losing interest in my favourite sport</a><br /><br />Sandy - from 45 to 47 in one step - so you're now leaping up the age ladder 2 at a time?<br /><br />Pat - I still have a sense that the best is yet to come, and there's no doubt you will always be an inspiration :)<br /><br />Theanne - thank you :)<br /><br />Kim Ayreshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02656677501116622953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15322620.post-72591358724896450792012-10-31T00:46:06.309+00:002012-10-31T00:46:06.309+00:00my son will make it to 47 next month...I made it t...my son will make it to 47 next month...I made it to 70 this past July. the odds are I will live as long as I'm meant to...and that's that. however, if only I had Don here to share this growing old crap with me, I'd be a lot happier :D<br /><br />BTW Happy Birthday!

But that is a pretty famous number:<br /><br />As soon as I saw this I thought you were blogging about Valentino Rossi (46 is his racing number, not his age) .... (pretty important news is; he's leaving Ducati and riding for Yamaha again next MotoGP season..)<br /><br />...but, that was not what you were writing about and so I was disappointed. ;-)markehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06387629308058823374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15322620.post-83762351888328267392012-10-27T00:22:36.600+01:002012-10-27T00:22:36.600+01:00:-) Happy birthday!
