Today is my birthday and yesterday was my daughter-in-law’s birthday (I tried to exchange my 55 years for her 29, but she said no thanks…go figure.) Anyway, my daughter is joining us this Saturday for a dinner out, and is concerned that I’m not doing anything “special” for my 55th. I can think of a few things, but nothing within my current budget. She suggested several ideas including a helicopter ride or trip to the zoo. I’m open for almost anything, as long as it doesn’t involve jumping out of an airplane (my son did that last September for his 30th.) 

That got me to thinking about what other people most enjoy doing/receiving on their birthday, so I decided to take a poll (my first, btw!) 

So, if you get a minute, I’d love to hear what your preferred birthday gifts/experiences are. WordPress allows us to make friends around the world, which is a wonderful gift in itself! But, I’m curious to hear how folks celebrate, including those in other countries and cultures. 

Thank you, in advance, for your time and your friendship!
