Happy birthday . Keep looking forward ,but something to cheer you up .50 is the new 40 so they say and 40 is the new 30 so at this rate it wont be long before you and me and others will be 20 .

In a mix of the figurative and literal, it sounds like there isn't anything out there you can't fix with your own two hands. I'd love to have a person like you in my corner (no homo). I'm certain that your family is glad to have you and are hoping you will be around for at least another 50 years.

Best wishes and happy 50th!

Just wanted to say thank you everyone for your responses and offers of knowledge and advice. Here's to what lies ahead and beyond the horizon.
