Sometimes I...



"Wish I´d never been born at all."

I hit 48 today - he never reached this...

"Nothing really matters to me" - not even my family said "hi".
My MIL did, though.

Addendum, Bro and the Nieces called :-)

Happy Birthday ... you are younger than all my children, so it doesn’t seem like you’ve reached a great age to me (I barely remember it )):).

Bill said...

I was that age back in 2000 and I thought that was old. :)
Have a wonderful day, Iris, even if you aren't happy. Better days are coming your way!

Happy happy birthday Iris. I hope you had a good day, even if your family forgot. (what a naughty family, yes?) You have made a big accomplishment. Think how many people don't make it to 48. Hope that doesn't make you feel bad. Hugs-Erika

If my Math is right your 12 years younger then me. I will be 60 next month. Hope your birthday was full of blessings.

Iris Flavia said...

Thank you all.
Well, I should be thankful, I guess.

48! Happy Birthday. My oldest child will be 47 this year, in February.

River said...

Is that the real Freddie Mercury or the actor in the scene from the movie?

Valerie-Jael said...

Happy Birthday etwas verspätet! GlG, Valerie

Iris Flavia said...

River... ups. I feel like a child now, too, thank you :-)

YES, that is THE ultimate Freddie!
I do not like the guy who tried to represent him, he was not even man enough to wear brown contacts! Freddie had brown eyes, not blue, it was not all about his teeth, either...
Sorry, I saw the movie on our last flight to Perth and I got a tad mad.
Freddie was a legend.
I am glad they made a movie, but this was a bad one.
Jim Hutton got no proper reputation and Mary Austin way too much.

Valerie, danke, hach... ist ja nur ein Jahr druff ;-)

Oh happy happy birthday Iris, it's a good day, I can't believe you are 48, you look about 25! Queen are coming to Perth in February with Adam Lambert as the singer, he is really good! Obviously no one can take Freddie's place, but he is quite a good substitute 💙

Iris Flavia said...

Oh, Grace!!!!
You have me laughing out loud here, 25!!
Well, that´s from one Gal to another, right :-)
What did we do????
Ohhhh... do you go see Queen?

Happy Birthday, Iris. A little late. But nonetheless a warm happy birthday -- with loads of good wishes for your "new year."
