last day to be 28
Yes, the title says it all. Today is the last that my age will be closer to 18 than to 40!! SCARY! Time sure has a way of sneaking up on you, and that has sent me into crisis mode today. This has been the most difficult birthday yet; let me try to explain why. I've always had this vision of what being a grown-up is for as long as I can remember. This image consisted of a very experienced, talented, strong, smart person. I've been realizing that although my age and circumstances certainly have progressed me to adulthood I certainly lack the discipline and skills that I thought adults would automatically have once they reached adulthood. Sadly enough, today I realized that the only thing that time alone does is ages you. If I want to have the skills that I thought would come in adulthood then I have to discipline myself to have them. Darn it; it looks like I have some work to do. I guess the good news is that I'm not 29 yet, not until tomorrow. I should live it up tonight, and oh I will- sacked out cold from old age in my bed. Just kidding, I know I'm not old yet, but the reality is I'm not getting any younger, and the way time has snuck up lately I will be 80 before I know it!

It's true, you are totally old.....but I love you anyways ;)
We'll be getting our walkers out in the next couple of years, so get prepared for Medicaid!
Love you and happy happy birthday!!
I agree with Roxey...you are getting old, but if I say that what does it mean for me? 29 is not even old! I think you are being too hard on yourself because in my opinion, you are a talented, knowledgeable, well-rounded adult. There is always room for improvement in everyone so you should just keep getting better with age! Happy Birthday. I hope 29 is all you want it to be and more!
YOU OLD??????? Boy I'm not, and not making plans on being old either!!!!! Love Ganny
Ya, I felt the same way last month. 29 is a biggie - huh!
Happy Late Birthday! Hope you had a great day!
I agree with Amy, you are being too hard on yourself! I think you have become the person you have always wanted to be, you should be proud! Have you gotten your new necklace yet? You need to do that quiz that I did on my blog, it was really fun!
