Abuelito’s Birthday
Oct 27,
My dad’s birthday is tomorrow, but since I have a work event I went to see him today and brought a cake to celebrate. He is not big on celebrations per se, but I think he still appreciates his birthday being acknowledged.
After party

My friend Mario likes having fun creating memes and AI photos, and he sent me this after my birthday. I got a kick out of it.
Milestone Birthday!
Oct 17,
After almost dying on multiple occasions throughout my life - no joke - today I was lucky enough to turn 50 years old. And I was really ecstatic about it. Turning 50 is a great milestone that I don’t take for granted. Not everyone makes it this far, and not everyone makes it healthy and surrounded by loved ones. Turning 50 also gets me closer to retirement. At this point in my life I am closer to the end of my career than to the beginning, and I find that really exciting. There is so much to do and enjoy after closing that chapter.
I started the day talking a walk in Ault Park with Kika and my sister. It was a beautiful fall morning. I was lucky to have a cool but sunny day all day. No gloominess and no rain. In the afternoon we cut cake with my family and in the evening we hosted a party for old and new friends. Given that it was a milestone birthday, I figured it was worth having a celebration. Unfortunately the date didn’t work for my closest work friends, and not everyone could make it, but my sister was able to come and I really wanted to have the party right on my birthday. We barely took photos because I wanted to be in the moment. So, for once, I only took photos when others asked for them.
It was a good birthday and I will keep my fingers crossed so it is also a good year ahead.
