Sam Is 30

There are many among us who believe that life begins at 40. Is that just a rumour invented and then perpetuated by those already well past that milestone in their life? Wonder what Sam thinks? Tonight we are hosting a party to celebrate his 30th Birthday. The blue and silver iced Birthday cake has been secreted in to the refrigerator. Blue and silver balloons are being hung. Go figure. There seems to be no age limit to the need for balloons. Food frozen, packaged and fresh brimming from every receptacle. Chairs cushioned and tables arranged. Weather might be a little cool but often wine has a way of warming from within bones chilled by the night air. The patio heater has been gassed and ready to light. Knee blankets conveniently placed. Cat's in the garden so tomorrow we'll know what transpired when the fairy lights sparkled and the wine corks popped.
