One week from now and my 39th birthday will be past.
39...
At 38, I figured I could still pull off the whole "mid-30's" thing - you know, young (well youngish) and fun. At 39, you are definitely LATE 30's and on that slippery slope to 50. Oy!
39...
I know I should be focusing on the positive aspects on my life. I have so many wonderful and loyal friends who are there for me. My relationship with my family has never been better. It looks as though my life is finally getting back on track. On the other hand, I'm starting over at 39. I'm tiring more easily and quickly. I'm not bouncing back well - as quickly or as much. And let's not even get into the "man thing", cuz it just ain't happening. I can't help wondering if it is all worth it.
So, here I am on the cusp of 39. I can't afford the red sports car I don't want. I know I probably won't accomplish all I want to in life. And I'm starting not to care anymore.
Everybody dance!
