So it’s here, today I’m officially not in my twenties anymore. Funny how it feels. I feel great, like I don’t need to hide my age. The whole myth about thirty being old made this birthday all the more scary. Well it’s here, and it’s not that bad! I think this is going to be a great decade. I’m more aware of what I like, and don’t, what I will and will not stand for. But I still feel young and vibrant.

I’ve been thinking a lot about this day. It’s the day that most women begin lying about their age, “29, once removed.” I’ve decided that I will not do that. I’m going to embrace each coming year and think of it as one more year of knowledge and experience. Now…. I’m not sure I’ll be able to say all that stuff about embracing with regard to gray hair or wrinkles, but age, yes!

This Friday I will be celebrating by going out to dinner with my close friends and family, without kids. :-) Should be fun!
