Bye-Bye Twenties

Birthdays are great. Birthdays are grand. But birthdays take on a whole new flava when you leave one decade and enter another. There's no going back. I have no problem with being twenty-nine plus one year :) -it's just hard to comprehend where the time went, you know?

It was a nice day as I took the day off of work and spent most of it with my mom who came to town. I figure if my husband has to work, who better to spend my birthday with than the woman who essentially gave me the birthday (thanks Mom-and God!). We visited, shopped and had lunch together. The hubby made it home early, unfortunately because he wasn't feeling well. He slept for a few hours and mustered the energy to take me to dinner. We swung through Walgreens on the way home for more alka-seltzer and he landed on the couch when we got home. I just came back from a walk and he is already in bed! I must say I'm feeling a little lonely this first night of being thirty...well, there I said it...thirty!

A new blessed beginning. It will be fun to see how the year unfolds.

Yeah! Welcome to your 30s! They will be much more fun than you can dream! Take comfort in the fact that I will always be older than you!

Hope the day was wonderful!
