It's only a number, it's only a number...I am trying to find encouragement in the fact that according to Wikipedia I will be middle aged tomorrow!!! I hope the sad, nauseating feeling passes so I can enjoy cake tomorrow!!!
FUNNY COMMENTS FROM FRIENDS:
Oh WOW...I remember that feeling!!! BELIEVE me Kristie...once you get past TODAY, you will be THRILLED to be 40!!! It is INDEED, only a number!!! I am 42 now and I will tell you, that the last week of being "39" was the hardest!!! :) HAPPY EARLY BIRTHDAY!!
Well, it should make you feel better that when I read your post I wondered if you were turning 30 or 35!
OK here are two bits of advice - 1. 40 is God's favorite number - it rained for 40 days & night, the Israelites & Jesus were in wildernesses for 40 days, etc but after the 40 good things happened! 2. Also remember that there will always... be a number higher than your current number & numbers younger - do you really want to be 17 again?? (just to refresh your memory: zits, trying to figure out the OS, angst about looks) there are advantages to age but those above you are remembering your current age & saying ahhh 40 - those were the days ... I didn't have to try & remember where I put my reading glasses,what I promised to do today & where the list I wrote it down on is, my hair still had bounce it & most of it wasn't in the sink or hair brush, parts of my anatomy were still in the right place & hadn't drifted south .... so Enjoy 40 because you have 10 years before all that happens to you :)
Yeah! Don't worry about tomorrow for each day has enough troubles of it's own & tomorrows are probably worse so don't even worry about today just enjoy the fact you are living breathing have a husband that makes you cakes & thinks 40 is a hot number (that was probably AFTER he lit your candles right?) & two adorable kids & all your faculties ( I am not talking about about your mind not school teachers) about you ENJOY what today brings xoxo!
Atleast the sun is shining…even though the temps are so cold, my nose freezes shut and I stop breathing if I am outside for more than 2 seconds!!!
