A couple of weeks ago, exactly 2 now, I turned 40. I still can't believe it. Every time I say it, I cringe a little. Acceptance, they say, is the first step...In previous years, I've celebrated my birthday as big and loud as possible, sometimes calling it my birthday "week". All about ME. This year was a little different. I just wanted to spend it with friends, family, people I love. It ended up being spread out over a week, dinner at Linda with friends on the 11th, dinner with the fam on the 12th, tea party with the lovely ladies of my work family on the 15th and dinner with the cousins on the 18th. Each event was relaxed and lovely. I just wanted to let those close to me know how much I love them. They let me know the feeling was mutual. A feeling of dread in anticipation of the day lead to a pretty nice week. I can't complain.
