    24

    No..I’m not going to tell you my age.  I’m usually quiet about this day and choose to keep the celebration private.  This year no such luck!

    My client, 24-year old (autistic young woman) has been marking the days off on the calender, and letting everybody know I’m an old lady…Hmmmm!  It doesn’t help that both her Mother and Sister had their birthdays last week, so she has been singing Happy Birthday all the time too!

    To me it is just another day..although the celebration is to have achieved another year of life!  So, I’m choosing to  share with you a list of famous people who also have shared this day as their own!  Have a splendid day and enjoy…..

    Famous People born on February 24th:

    1885 Chester Nimitz (US admiral)

    1942 Joseph Lieberman (US senator)

    1955 Steve Jobs (co-founder of Apple)

    1955 Alain Prost (racing driver)

    1962 Michelle Shocked (singer)

    1966 Billy Zane (actor)

    On This Day In History:

    1582 Pope Gregory XIII announces Gregorian Calender.

    1946 Juan Peron elected president of Argentina.

    1981 Britain’s Prince Charles becomes engaged to Lady Diana Spencer.

    1992 Nirvana singer Kurt Cobain marries Courtney Love.

    24 February is also:

    Independence Day 1918 (Estonia)

    Flag Day (Mexico)

  2. I’m glad I didn’t miss that!! :)

    This is for you:
    Count your life by smiles, not tears,
    Count your age by friends, not years.

    And as Jonathan Swift once said:
    “No wise man ever wished to be younger.”

    Happy birthday Barbara, may all your wishes come true! :)
