This year, for his b-day we will be more sedate and spend a few days in AZ. We have tickets for 'Thoroughly Modern Millie' in a theater in the round. We both love live theater and musicals, so it's win-win.
Yes, it is a new dawn. We ratchet down our plans to meet our needs. I must say it is hard sometimes to 'remember' we are no longer 30 or 40 or 50, going and doing whatever we want. It is hard to modify our day to include only one or 2 events and not multiple excitements. Conversely, who in their right mind would want to be a teen again. Going through that lovely period in life once is most certainly enough!
For birthday number 80, we will treat Russ to some sun, some fun and one another. Sounds good to both of us.
