Approaching 75: so young.
What’s the word ending in -tion on the orange cone?

Thank you, Eliza. Of course I took it well. I’ve always said I am happy to be growing old. Many folks don’t realize that privilege. 🙂

Maybe but compared to all my coworkers I am the elderly. Thanks, Peter!

Attention Elderly is the answer for the other Steve, I think.

I’ve received similar treatment in the past so wasn’t shocked. At least they didn’t post it on the billboard by the highway that passes the store. Lol.
Thanks, Robert!

Gini wants a Tee-shirt made which says: “With Age Comes Wisdom.”
Get yourself one but try to resist the urge to call your younger co-workers ignorant.
Many Happy Returns!
I’ll be there later this year so try to cross the road before then so you won’t slow me down. 🙂

I ain’t quite doddering yet, Wally. 🙂 They gave me a hat sort of along that idea…”I don’t know how to act my age, I’ve never been this old before.” Thank you!

Well, I just had a surprise. I never can remember exactly how old I am, and thought I was 75 myself. Then, I got out the pencil and paper and discovered I’m actually 76. You’re a youngster! with plenty of happy birthdays ahead of you. It’s great that your co-workers had such fun with the event; thanks for sharing the party!

Ha! I provide a similar service for a friend who has the same birthday but doesn’t remember her age. She is exactly 10 years younger than I so that’s how she knows.
They actually threw a very nice party for me with some great Italian food (my favorite cuisine) and a fantastic rich chocolate cake from the Whole Foods bakery.

Happy birthday,Steve. Not so sure I want to admit that you’re elderly, though. You might guess why . . .

Thanks, Linda! I can guess but it’s all in our head. We’re as old as we let ourselves think we are.
