The Big 40

I turn 40 today.






Wake up, go to work.

Yes, that's right, my day job.

The office phone rings non-stop.

Face a motherload of issues.

Energy sapped.

Mike picks me up for lunch.

Smile.

See lovely trees.

Smile.






I dig into comfort food, Chicken Rice!

Extra helping of chilli sauce please!

I'm ready to take on the world again.

I learn from Mike that Tessa

will buy me a cake after school.

Smile.

Father and Son go to a pet shop to buy.....fish.
No smile.

I can't resist it.

"Thank you, John for buying me fish for my birthday."

"Eh, Mum...the Neon Tetras are for me

but your birthday gift is to be able to see them swimming

in my tank."

Smile.
