Mine was this year - turned 66 on March 1. Holy Cow, I'm closer to 70 than 60.
My husband experienced the YIKES when he turned 25.

My brother is 18 months younger than me. The last time we visited he told me he was turning 65 and I thought, "Gee, he's getting up there" before going, "Umm, yeah, I'm turning 66."!I'm OK when I hit milestone birthdays, but I feel old when my "baby" brother hits them.
I had to Google that and it said it was 70. Did Google get it right?Three score years and ten was definitely the most impactful, so far!

My husband had his "YIKES" birthday at 25 - that was 41 yrs ago I couldn't understand it really until this year. My attitude had been, "Geez, it's just a birthday."I don’t know why, but 30 really messed with my mind.
I had long hair, and I felt like I needed short hair to bring in my 30’s. I think I thought I needed to look more mature or something, so I cut it super short.
I got over it though and I’ve grown it out many times since then.
I remember having to learn what a "score" was in grade school when we were studying Lincoln's Gettysburg Address. Seems like yesterday and a million yrs ago at the same time!I had to Google that and it said it was 70. Did Google get it right?
I was just thinking, I could also see people having a yikes birthday as they approach the age when one of their parents died.My husband had his "YIKES" birthday at 25 - that was 41 yrs ago I couldn't understand it really until this year. My attitude had been, "Geez, it's just a birthday."
This.....now hope to make it to Dan's Yikes oneI hit 70 last month. It wasn't a Yikes birthday at all. It was more of a Halleluiah one!!
