Sixty-One!

I haven't been in the best of moods for the last few days.  Not depressed, exactly, but just somewhere shy of my usual level of happiness.  

The news hasn't helped. I really needed something to jack my spirits up.

Then on Facebook, I got a notification about an upcoming birthday of an old friend.  

I worked with him at Ikon.  We shared some classes and shared some drinks at a few trainers' conferences. We had grandkids about the same age. and I assumed he and I were about the same age, too.

Today I learned that he will turn sixty-one this week!  Sixty-one - that makes him over fifteen years younger than me!

I guess that might sound depressing, but for some reason, it really put a spring in my step.
