    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

  2. 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

    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!

  15. Happy Birthday! 🙂
    And you look so pretty sweetheart. You do. And what makes you more attractive now is your wisdom.

  16. BobG says:

    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.

  17. Joanne says:

    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.

  18. Happy Birthday and I wish you well.

    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

  27. Beth says:

    What a nice card, thanks for sharing it. Hope you feel better soon!

  28. Meleah says:

    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

  29. Loz says:

  33. Seiche says:

    A day late and a dollar short… story of my life…

    Happy Belated B-Day, Meleah. Hope it was a great one.

  34. Meleah says:

    aww… thank ALL of you guys …. sooo very much.

    🙂

  35. AntiBarbie says:

    Happy belated Birthday! Ok, but seriously we need to talk… you are too young looking to be 33…. wrinkle! Age damn it! *grumbles*

  36. Becky says:

    But you sure don’t look older:)–happy birthday!!!!!

    ~Becky

  37. Becky says:

    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

  38. Meleah says:

    Okay, ya’ll are just being too nice with telling me I still LOOK so young.

    But, Thank you! Keep saying that!

  39. Michael C says:

    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!!!

  40. Random Magus says:

    Many many happy returns.
    And sorry again for missing your special day.
    Lots of kisses and hugs

  41. Meleah says:

    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!

  42. Graham says:

    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 😉

  43. Michael C says:

    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 😉

  44. 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 ….
