Aging Happens
The winds of change are coming.
In three weeks, my youth is gone. I know some of you might think I’m being dramatic but let’s just face the facts.
Gray hair is no longer just a thought but an entire continent springing up on my head.
Wrinkles can’t be destroyed with the iron in this case
Bones squeak, muscles leak.
Gravity… well ….add two inches to everything and there ya go. OK. three.
I have such awesome bat wings that you could call me batman.
Every child I potty train only brings me closer to diapers for myself.
The good news is that I’m only turning…. gulp… 30. And I won’t have to have my teeth in a glass next to my bed yet. Some say that 30 is the new 20 but let’s face it, they’re lying. Holding onto their youth by little white lies. I’ll just embrace the little white things sprouting up on my head and dispel the rumors of youth.
Aging happens, I’m gonna roll with it. Because one day soon I won’t be able to roll without breaking a hip.

Oh my gosh. That crazy picture. The tides are changing? Or was that the wind? In either case, you had me fa-reaked out!
I then I remembered that I’m 35, and I began rummaging through the white pages to find your phone number so that I could tell you loud and clear to SHUT-UP. Or be quiet. Because we aren’t allowed to use the “S” word in this house.
You are so not allowed to be old, cause then that makes me old, and I’m not going down like that. So just buy a push-up bra and call it a day 🙂
Ps-i may have overreacted. you don’t have to shut up. but your still not allowed to be old until I’m ready. And I’m not ready. Capisci? I don’t mean to put our blogging friendship on the line, but if you know what’s good for you, you’ll stay young forever. You know what I’m sayin?

Well, sweetie, I dont think you are turning 30. I think you may be having your second 29th birthday. And as for the greys I know a FANTASTIC stylist… She travels! 😉 A push-up bra (GREAT IDEA Nicki!) and a new cut n color and maybe some new polish for your nails… See? You dont feel old anymore! And lets face it. You are only 50 weeks older than me, and DANG IT ALL! Im never growing up, so neither can you. xoxoxo
