Yup. I am 33 today. Man, I feel a lot older than that…
* My mother sent me THE BEST CARD EVER. Click HERE (ps…. grab some tissues).
Now, I feel a whole lot better about ‘The Move’.
A special THANK YOU goes out to Rolando for this post!

Since I recently celebrated the 10th anniversary of my 33rd birthday, I want to be one of the first to say: ENJOY EVERY MINUTE OF IT!
What a thoughtful and beautiful card your mom sent!
Happy Birthday Mel!
Dan
Yay!! One more trip around the sun! Here’s a reason to smile today – In Spanish, the “smile to the camera” word, like “cheese” in English, Diga treinta y tres (“Say thirty-three”) is the same as “Say cheese”!
I join Dan in the very first sentence of his!
Happy Birthday Meleah!
The card hit that one spot in my heart…I think it shall be one of those that sits with me the rest of the day!
May you have sunshine in the gloomiest of moments, my heart shine through the darkness and light your soul’s way. I wish you many manymore moments, as now in each and every coming day!
Happy Bday!
Jodi
meleah!!!! i had no clue.. you sent no cosmic waves into the blogshphere to prepare me for this!!!!! happy birthday my darling sister from another mother… i love you and wish that this year will be the happiest most fulfilling ever… it is in deed coming in with the force of a lion… so may it leave with the peace and love deserving of you my little lamb….. happy birthday!!!!!!
oh yeah… i may get an update for you today on “that other thing”..nudge nudge wink wink…
Happy birthday! I hope you have a great day.
What a beautiful card and message. I must keep those thoughts in mind in my relationship with my daughters.
Happy Birthday!!!!
Happy happy birthday! Enjoy your day!
(Aaaand again with the scary similarities… I have a birthday in October, too!)
Love you Melz! Had fun talking to you yesterday, and I am glad you liked your prezzie from me. 🙂
Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday Fruitloop.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR MELEAH! That IS a beautiful card…..obviously your mommy loves you very much! I hope you have a fun and UPLIFTING day today!
~Olga
Ooops…messed up on my address. sorry.
Happy B-day M, best wishes.
Beautiful card, and an even more beautiful Birthday Girl… ahh to be only 33!! I hope you have a lovely celebration of your life today, Meleah!
Happy Birthday! 🙂
And you look so pretty sweetheart. You do. And what makes you more attractive now is your wisdom.
Happy Birthday, lady.
Don’t worry about the age; I’ve been married for 34 years, so that makes me old enough to have kids older than you. I don’t even remember when I turned 40, let alone 33. Besides, you look great; a lot of 23 year olds would be happy to look so good.
Awww, HAPPY BIRTHDAY Meleah! =)
That card is the sweetest, I’m so glad you shared. I remember how much I loved reading the chicken soup books when I was younger–great stories and even better lessons.
Happy Birthday and I wish you well.
Have a very good day, my dear.
Happy Birthday Mel.
xoxo
FV
Oh, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, girl. You look GREAT and I hope your birthday rocks!
xoxo
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!
I wanna wish you a spctacular day…And technically, this b-day marks a whole new beginning….So by the power invested in me by the state of California, I hereby REVERSE the clock and start you off at 1!!! Woo hoo!! I love posessing this much power.
Anyway, I am so glad that I stopped lurking around your blog ‘cuz how often is it that one finds their BI-COASTAL PARTNER IN CRIME?? How rare is it to find a Louise to my Thelma?? Not often….*feeling faklempt*
Nothing but love for ya baby!!!
Ana
What a beautiful birthday girl!!
Wishing you a wealth of delicious decadence, darling, on your special day!!
I will raise my glass to you!!
Cheers!
Lots of love and kisses
xox
Happy birthday, Chick-a-dee. Hope it was fabulous!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Thank you everyone for all of your well wishes. Unfortunately I have been in bed all day with a migraine from hell. Its been a lousy day.
Get well my friend! miss ya!
FV
What a nice card, thanks for sharing it. Hope you feel better soon!
I think it is just all of the stress and an onset of heavy duty depression (a byproduct all the BIG CHANGES) has hit me way too hard all at once. Ill be alright. It been a few hard weeks, but I know it will pass.
Again.. thank you so much to all of my peeps. Ya’ll will never understand how much these words / comments / emails are helping me. xxoo
And it’s also Happy Birthday from me. And depsite being about the 40th person here to send their wishes I think I can proudly say I was the first on Facebook when it was still Sunday where you are 🙂
HAVE A VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Wonderful card. Wonderful person.
You look gorgeous!
I may be late, but I will be writing in all caps…
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MELEAH. MAY THIS BE YOUR VERY BEST YEAR EVER!!!
WOO HOO!!!! WELCOME TO 33. WE CAN BE 33 TOGETHER FOR THE NEXT 2 1/2 MONTHS.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, I’M A LITTLE TOO LAZY TO TYPE THE REST OF THIS OU-OUT, SO HAPPY B-DAY TO YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Happy birthday to you.
You are 33 but look like 25.
cheers and wishes,
despo
A day late and a dollar short… story of my life…
Happy Belated B-Day, Meleah. Hope it was a great one.
aww… thank ALL of you guys …. sooo very much.
🙂
Happy belated Birthday! Ok, but seriously we need to talk… you are too young looking to be 33…. wrinkle! Age damn it! *grumbles*
But you sure don’t look older:)–happy birthday!!!!!
~Becky
oh–and if you didn’t get any birthday spankings could I have the honor??–LOL:)
I hope everything is going ok. Your current predicament I am sure will not be as bad as it sounds–I speak from experience. In a way it is an opportunity to get closer to your parents–even though as I mentioned before, they will under these circumstances continue to be under the illusion you are perpetually twelve years old:)
~Becky
Okay, ya’ll are just being too nice with telling me I still LOOK so young.
But, Thank you! Keep saying that!
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention how dang young you look! Oops, forgot to put it in caps:
YOU STILL LOOK SO YOUNG FOR 33. I LOOK LIKE A SENIOR CITIZEN AND I’M THE SAME DAN AGE!!!
Oooh I feel like shit fr missing your birthday. From one Libran to another – happy birthday. I have a feel this is going to be our year – you wait and watch. I am – fingers crossed.
Many many happy returns.
And sorry again for missing your special day.
Lots of kisses and hugs
Oh! Stop! You know I still love you AMBER / Random Magus! Us Libras have to stick together. This ‘new year’ just HAS TO get better.
Oh Michael C: Thank you!! ….thank you… thank you!
I’m soooooo sorry that I am a day late, but I wish you a very very very happy birthday from “over the pond” here in England. I am sure that the next 12 months are going to bring you sooo much happiness and joy… a new page in your book of life.
Best wishes and a big hug
Many happy returns, Graham 😉
ps. That’s a lovely photo!!!!
You are so very welcome! I say you celebrate for the rest of the week!! It’ll be like a Festivus for the Rest of Us…or something like that 😉
G’day from Australia,
A very happy belated birthday to you. As a father of three, I know exactly how your mother must have felt when she sent you that card.
Hope you have a wonderful year ….
Ha ha ha ha ha ha….
“Festivus”
