Yikes.

i have a big dinner with family planned tonight, then am going out with a bunch of friends while Kay stays at Nanny's house, and Daddy of course, has to work.

Then on Tuesday we are taking off for Banff, and I am getting a spa afternoon after all! We're staying in a five star hotel and eating at four star restaurants. And most importantly, we will spend THREE WHOLE DAYS ALONE TOGETHER. The last time, and only time that's ever happened is our honeymoon. Five years ago!


So I'm happy about that!! Big time. he never over-spoils me, so this is like, over the top!


Hopefully my 30s are as good to me as my mid twenties. The early twenties were OK, the late ones, after kayleighs birth have been unlucky and sick, and I'm sort of happy to walk away.

It's just hard on me because I've got all these perfectionistic should haves running through my head. I should have a mortgage, I should have a teaching contract, i swhould have baby #2 over and done with...and I should be 40 pounds lighter, LOL!

That's the only reason it is at all stressful. Age itself is no biggie. I'll never get Botox, (maybe a tummy tuck) I'll proibably be OK with grey hair, and I won't mind hiking my pants up to my nipples some day, lol. But when i look at what I feel I should have accomplished by now, that's when i get mad at myself. Like these things are ALL under my control or something. Very silly, I know. That's what makes perfectionists like me so retarded!LOL!

Hope it's a happy birthday indeed!

Thirty's not so bad, not so bad at all.
So far, my 30s are MUCH better than my 20s were. A week after I turned 30, I got out of a bad relationship and got my career back on track. Then I got my self & my confidence back, met the man I married, and all sorts of good stuff.

I'm sure your 30s will hold all sorts of good stuff, too!
