Birthday Funny

Nolan and Zander were talking last night. Nolan explained I had a birthday coming up. He asked how old I would be and I told him 43.

He said, "Wow - you don't look THAT old!" I thanked him.

Zander, not to be outdone, said, "Yeah - Mom - you just look 69!"

This reminds me that I should get a birthday countdown up for the boys....

I turned 43 in September and have found it is not so bad. I'm looking forward to a lot of things during this year of being 43!

I don't mind turning 43 at all. I told everyone I was 47 for the first 6 months of the year. LOL I actually am LOVING my 40's.

I am enjoying being in my 40s, but my body sure is telling me that I am in my 40s. I'll be 47 this year! Yikes!

Yes - Debbie - my body knows it's in a new decade too...my metabolism took a real dive in the last two years...but I'm still trudging away. ::snort::

SIS: Oh to be in the 40's again!!! Only bad ting would be to have to go thru those years again even though most of them were good.

Ladies, just wait until your are well into your 60's!!! We still can't imagine that we are so to be just 4 years from 70. :(:(:(:

Still don't want to go back in age but it would be nice to stay the same age for a few years and have the body do the same.

LOL Mom - it's all in your mind...isn't that how the saying goes?

I've been thinking a lot that we are the age you and Dad were when we got married. Time is flying by....I still don't picture you as near 70....maybe 50....LOL
