On my 50th Birthday I went to the Beach....


I am not one to sit around and pout. It was my birthday and since my husband and son could have cared less I took off by myself to Mustang Island...I loved it!

Men don't have a clue. Glad you put on a happy face and took off. Me being a widow since I was 50 years old I learned to pull myself up by the boot straps.

Exactly Paula, we have to pull ourselves up by the boot straps and get on with life....
