Goodness...thank you for all of the well wishes. I have been celebrating for two days. Five years ago, I obtained a copy of my birth certificate, and it said I was born on the 30th of Oct vs. the 31st on which I had celebrated my birthday for 49 years. I then got my records from the hospital, and it too said the 30th vs. the 31st. My parents were deceased so my older sister and figured my Catholic mother of 6 kids (I was the last) decided she wasn't celebrating a birthday and then Halloween. She must've combined my birthday with Halloween. I had to rectify all of my records. Now, my office celebrates on the 30th, and my family celebrates on the 31st!
