You know I was having a tough time this morning, waking up and realizing I'm 40 and as I said earlier - struggling somewhat with the prospect of being "middle age" for a few weeks now...
The feeling is gone now, a few good friends made me laugh this afternoon and a good lunch with an old friend and she reminded me I'm the one who usually laughs out loud and laughs often, amoung my group of friends... That I always been the one to focus on the positive...
Well, I guess I realize I've been kind focusing on the fact that I've lived 1/2 my life now and not on I've got half a life time to still live...
It's funny cause the fogs gone from my head and as I look outside my office window the sun is out and it's brighter than I've seen it all week... You know what I'm talking about Rattie.. look outside your window...
I've got 5 kids at home ages ranging from 4 to 12 (megan's and my stepdaughters friends staying over for the weekend) to celebrate my 40th... I'm looking forward to it...
