so it's the birthday today.

i am telling people i turned 62 so i can hear them say "are you serious? you look AMAZING."

he he

i don't mind this birthday. i'm cool with myself. i like my life. i like my friends and my family and i really like my husband. a lot of my people my age can't (or don't) say that. i feel blessed...when i was half my age, i'm not even sure i knew what feeling blessed was.

so perhaps that is the difference. at 41...i know i get to spend the rest of eternity in a relationship with the One who made me. it makes ALL the difference. i didn't know that at 21, or even 31. so 41...yeah. it's the best age that ends with a one so far :)

plus, i have a cute yellow dog and a fuzzy orange cat sitting here in the sun with me and twinkly-eyed husband who came home to take me to lunch. how can you beat that?

off to montana so wish me luck with my older bones on the ski slopes. hopefully i bring them all back home in one piece next weekend.
