(119) dearest laogong...
YOU KNOW YOU'RE GETTING OLD WHEN...
* 'Happy Hour' is a nap
* It takes longer to rest than it did to get tired
* No one expects you to run into a burning building
* Getting lucky means you find your car in the parking lot
* In a hostage situation you are likely to be released first
* The little white-haired lady you help across the street is your wife
* You are cautioned to slow down by your doctor instead of the police
HAPPY 47th BIRTHDAY!
**UPDATE**
Laogong was sad because I did not prepare his usual steamboat birthday dinner as I already knew he had to work late. But he was very happy when Judith called from Brisbane to wish him a happy day. Then Gabrielle and Damien, our little god-children aka niece & nephew, phoned him at work too.
Later when Laogong got home, Ben, Emily and Jon surprised him with his favourite chocolate cake from Lana's! When his sister sent Brenda aka Big-Mama No 1 Fan over for her sleepover, she asked Laogong about how his birthday was. Even Laogong's mum asked him if I had prepared steamboat for him!
As our kids are always so busy with their own stuff and Laogong comes from a very big family, he was over-the-moon that so many people actually remembered his birthday. Funnily, Laogong did not know exactly how old he was... and he started counting the candles on his cake!
