Antiques...and Becoming One :-)

Hi my friends, I'd like to share something with you. 

I've become an antique :-)

"An item which is at least 100 years old and is collected or desirable due to rarity, condition, utility, or some other unique feature. Motor vehicles, power tools and other items subject to vigorous use in contrast, may be considered antiques in the U.S. if older than 50 years, and some electronic gadgets of more recent vintage may be considered antiques. Another general rule of thumb is 75 years for most objects to become antiques."

 According to Wikipedia, here in the U.S. I've become an antique ;-) Okay, so I'm only turning 50, and not 75 or 100, but that part about "other items subject to vigorous use" seals it, I just know it does :-) However I think that although Wiki "might" classify me as an antique today, I'm going to grab onto that part about "desirable due to rarity, condition, utility, or some other unique feature". It makes me feel much better about turning 50 ;-) And if that doesn't do it, I've got one more ace up my sleeve. I've got people around here that feel this way about me.

 So, I may be feeling more aches and pains these days but I have so much to be thankful for. Thank you God, for all the blessings in my now, 50 years of life! 

To celebrate, I'm going to be having a giveaway soon, so check back in the next week to find out more.

I'd also like to say "Happy 30th Anniversary" to my wonderful neighbors, Karen and Steff. We couldn't ask for better neighbors than you two, and we're even more thankful to be able to call you friends! 

Have a wonderful weekend everyone,

Blessings,

Marcia
