Courtney Cox's hilarious 60th celebration

<p>Courtney Cox, who celebrated her milestone 60th birthday last month, gave fans an inside look into her wellness routine - which even she thinks is a bit much. </p> <p>The <em>Friends </em>star took to Instagram to share a video clip of her exercise routine, which included seated arm rows, squats, pull-ups, chest presses, crunches and cardio. </p> <p>“I just had a birthday,” she said in the video while in the gym.</p> <p>“Don’t love the number, but look, we have no choice,” she wrote.</p> <p>“You just gotta do the best you can,” she said in the video. </p> <p>While getting in daily exercise is a pretty common thing to do to stay fit, it was what she did towards the end of the video that captured fans' attention. </p> <p>The actress swapped her black workout set for a tiny bikini before braving the cold inside what looked like an industrial-sized freezer. </p> <p>Taking things a tad further, she also wore a sheet face mask and a red-light therapy baseball hat inside the chamber, poking fun at her own routine and all the different wellness fads trending online. </p> <p>“What, it’s cryotherapy?” she jokingly said while crawling out of the freezer, which appeared to be in her garage.</p> <blockquote class="instagram-media" style="background: #FFF;

"Am I being too sensitive?": Woman's dilemma after partner forgets 60th birthday

<p>A woman has shared her dilemma on how to approach her partner of 30 years, after he forgot her 60th birthday. </p> <p>"It's my 60th birthday today, and my partner of 30 years has not acknowledged it. Should I tell him?" she titled her post on Reddit. </p> <p>"It's my actual birthday today, and whilst we have planned a big party for next weekend, when I woke up this morning I expected a 'Happy Birthday!' and a smile," she continued. </p> <p>"I didn't get anything. He started my coffee but he does that almost every morning.</p> <p>"At first I thought maybe he forgot but now I am thinking that he thinks he doesn't have to say anything because we are having a big party this weekend. </p> <p>"Am I being too sensitive? Should I tell him? If so, how?" she asked in her post. </p> <p>Hundreds of Reddit users took to the comments to share their thoughts on how to approach the situation, with a few sharing crafty solutions of their own. </p> <p>"I'd make a joke of it. 'I can't believe they moved my birthday!' Or 'I saw on the TV we should ask easy questions to check for dementia- I'll ask you first, when's my birthday?'" one user playfully suggested. </p> <p>"I'm going to say the absolute minimum I'd expect for ANY birthday is my wife wishing me a Happy Birthday. Don't let it fester and ruin your day - just ask him about it" another added. </p> <p>One user saw the bright side of things and said: "He's handed you the best birthday present of all - the opportunity to use this against him for the next twenty years.</p> <p>"I'd be rubbing my hands with glee. Happy Birthday!" </p> <p>"Happy Birthday. Go out and buy a large cake. Eat it all yourself. Nobody need ever know" to which she responded: "there is a Costco not that far away. Go big or go home." </p> <p>Another Redditor came up with an elaborate plan on how she could get her partner's attention. </p> <p>"Purchase this 'Acknowledge Me' t-shirt of WWE wrestle Roman Reigns. Then write 'Birthday' on a piece of card and use some tape to stick on the t-shirt. 'Acknowledge Me Birthday.' Then just wear it around the house," they said. </p> <p>The woman was onboard with the plan, but luckily she didn't need to apply any of their crafty solutions and shared an update. </p> <p>"He just came up to my home office and gave me a big hug, admitting he had forgotten because he was so focussed on both work and next weekend's party," she wrote. </p> <p>"He apologised sheepishly, which was exactly the best outcome possible. Now I have both my birthday acknowledged as well as a fine story and/or bit of ammo to be saved for another day.</p> <p>"So there you go. I've cancelled the 'acknowledge me' t-shirt order, and shall now share my Costco cake with him instead of eating it from across the table, glaring.</p> <p>"Thank you everyone for the very fine passive aggressive suggestions which made me smile. Much appreciated!"</p> <p><em>Image: Getty</em></p> <p> </p>

78-year-old woman rewears gown for 60th wedding anniversary

<p>It’s the wedding dress that has spanned generations, and even six decades later, it is still Carol Bates dream wedding dress.</p> <p>Carol, now 78, remembers the day in 1957 when she walked into The Wedding Bell in Tacoma, Washington, and saw the white lace gown.</p> <p>“I found the dress of my dreams,” she said upon seeing it.</p> <p><img width="372" height="458" src="http://ghk.h-cdn.co/assets/17/10/1489085424-bates-wedding-anniversary-today-012-170227-de2c22c848958ac10bb3731a41d0fd1atoday-inline-large.jpg" alt="Weddings Dress" class=" swap-image pinterest-enabled" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"/></p> <p>Thirty years later, Carol’s daughter wore the dress to her own wedding.</p> <p>Twenty years after that, Carol wore the dress again for her 50th wedding anniversary, and just this past weekend, she donned the lace gown again for her 60th anniversary.</p> <p>In the very dress she had walked down the aisle in for the first time, Carol renewed her vows with her husband Bob Bates, 86, in front of friends and family.</p> <p><img width="520" height="426" src="http://ghk.h-cdn.co/assets/17/10/1489086815-bates-wedding-anniversary-today-004-170227-98dc99c9f8ff2e3107bf3c1407ca8746today-inline-large.jpg" class=" swap-image pinterest-enabled" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"/></p> <p>Carol says she plans to wear the dress for her 70th anniversary, too.</p> <p>Carol met Bob when she was 14 years at old at a dance party with her parents. They married and went on to have four children.</p> <p>"He's my first fellow and my only fellow," Carol said, adding, "I must say our love is as strong or stronger than it ever was.”</p> <p><img src="http://ghk.h-cdn.co/assets/17/10/1489086351-bates-wedding-anniversary-today-014-170307-141c9e91c7d39fdd7bbbd217782262b2today-inline-large.jpg" class=" swap-image pinterest-enabled" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"/></p> <p>The couple also offered their advice for making love last as long as they have.</p> <p>"Number one, we're not afraid to voice our opinion, but we respect one another and just because we have a different opinion, it doesn't mean we don't love one another," she said. "We've learned that we all make mistakes. We admit our mistakes. We ask forgiveness, and we get up and we go forward."</p> <p>"The days sometimes seem a little long, but the years have just flown by!" she added.</p> <p><strong>Related links:</strong></p> <p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong><a href="http://www.oversixty.com.au/lifestyle/retirement-life/2017/03/this-couple-has-worn-matching-outfits-for-37-years/"><em>This couple has worn matching outfits for 37 years</em></a></strong></span></p> <p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong><a href="http://www.oversixty.com.au/lifestyle/retirement-life/2017/03/99-and-92-year-old-race-in-60-metre-sprint/"><em>99-year-old and 92-year-old go head-to-head in 60-metre sprint</em></a></strong></span></p> <p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong><a href="http://www.oversixty.com.au/lifestyle/retirement-life/2017/03/great-grandma-dances-into-100th-birthday/"><em>Gorgeous great-grandma grooves into her 100th birthday</em></a></strong></span></p> <p> </p>
