You have very youthful hair and skin. Great look, all around.

Happy birthday! You look amazing, and it sounds as if the world is looking amazing to you again, too! ENJOY!

Happy birthday! You look wonderful. Your birthday outfit is fabulous, the blazer and top are a great combo. I am glad the cataract surgery went well, and the clarity in vision is interesting.

Happy Birthday! I'm glad the surgery was a success! You look lovely! I really like your sweater and it looks great with the blazer.

You look incredibly stylish and graceful. Happy birthday! My mom had cataract surgery last year and her surgeon mentioned that sometimes they actually cause depression because of the lower light levels reaching your eyes. Glad you have a new lease on color!

Happy birthday, Maven!! I think you look glowing and beautiful <3 May we all look as beautiful as you do as we age. Love your outfit. I'm glad you had such a successful surgery too. If it were me, I would be writhing to wear my eye makeup again. I share that to say, I feel your impatience. But well done for obeying doctor's orders. It will be worth it <3

Happy Birthday to you!So glad that your surgery went well and that you are looking forward to a new lease of life and wardrobe!

Thank you so much for all the comments and birthday wishes. I'm so motivated to keep at it in taking care of myself and my body.

Today we went to lunch at Stanford Shopping Center. As we drove along the freeway I realized I could read all the signs from as far away as they could be seen. How many years has it been? Can't remember. and going back home and looking towards the mountains to the east--I could see the houses and buildings way up into the hills--admittedly just bumps and dots on the landscape, but I didn't even realize how much detail I couldn't make out before. It's a beautiful clear autumn day. When we got home, I had a get-well postcard signed by all the people who took care of me at the eye surgery center. So grateful for all the wonderful medical treatments available and the great people we deal with here. And this is just the first eye!

Looking good Ms M. Happy birthday! And congratulations on your successful surgery.

Nothing better than the gift of improved sight! I am so glad the surgery was a success! You look great - no makeup needed! Happy birthday!!

You Look Fab !!! That blazer is perfection. Happy Birthday!

I’m told after cataract surgery, one will regret looking down at one’s carpet, lol

Happy Birthday! So glad you look (and see) fab!

Happy Birthday! Eye surgery is terrific. Your birthday outfit looks fab. Your day sounds perfect. Hiking and dinner.

I'm late but, Happy Birthday! I like your outfit and your jewelry - you look fab. Congratulations for the successful surgery.

Happy birthday Love the blazer, and the cake is so fun!
Big yay for the cataract surgery! When I had mine (a kazillion years ago), it felt like nothing short of a miracle.

Congratulations! Hope recovery continues very well.

I hear you on colors. I had both eyes done this past spring. Everything was so blue! That shifted a bit. It has changed some of my color choices — some things like bright fuchsia are too bright in large amounts. Also presumably I’m seeing my hair and skin tones differently.

I had same experience, that before I had the other eye done, I was shocked at how yellowish- brown things looked. But now with 2 new lens implants, I have
no more comparisons. So may be choosing slightly different shades going forward, but I won’t exactly be able to tell!

It also made a huge difference in daily life. I’d given up night driving and also could not navigate a darkened theater without assistance.

So I bet things will be “ looking up” for you!

Fellow Scorpio! Happy belated birthday, it sounds like you had a fab day and chose a very nice outfit to celebrate!

Unfrumped, I felt the same about night-driving, and I didn't even like to be a passenger at night.

Something's been bothering me about my hair for about a week. Didn't look right. Yesterday morning it dawned on me: I'm seeing the true color of my hair! It's much grayer than I thought! The texture seems different. I thought maybe I'd used the wrong shampoo, or mistaken conditioner for the shampoo bottle. Yes, and I can see that I have a lot more wrinkles than I thought. Yikes!

Lots of discoveries ahead.

Happy Birthday! You look fab!!

Happy birthday! So happy to read that your surgery was a success.
