The Big "30"

Yep, that's right I am officially thirty. I am not tooting the birthday horn by any means, so I don't need any congrats or Happy Birthday's, but I am going in denial over the fact that I have
left the 20's. I have heard many mixed reviews of how others felt when they turned thirty. One of my sisters said it was depressing, another sister said it was the best year of her life. Me, I am still contemplating. I am still young enough to do all the physical things I want, but old enough not to be asked by a salesperson every time I answer the door if my mom or dad are available (I should be grateful, but it is a pet peeve). There are definite downsides to aging. I think the biggest irritation is that life just seems to flash by so fast.

My husband bought me a new ipod for my birthday, which I needed and love. And my family always has a little celebration for me on the fourth of July with cake, candles and singing since my birthday is on the fifth. Even though I am getting really old, I still have an awesome supportive family. Thirty, schmirty is all I have to say. And, at least I am on the light side of 30 now, instead of the dark side of 20, right?
