Yep. I was born 45 years ago, today. You know, it’s not really a big deal to me. I feel okay about where I am in my life; my age is just a number, and I don’t feel old at all. I don’t feel that much different today than I felt at 25. Except that I feel better about myself, wiser, a little more confident, and I have a keener sense of direction in life. And I’m not quite as stupid! Sometimes I think that our 20′s are just an extension of our teenage years, except that we can legally drink, and vote. I am so glad I am not there anymore. I like it better, here. As in being 45.
In celebration of today being my day, I did what I love to do best: scrapbook. After finishing some more work on Hubby’s book (title page: check; epilogue: check; statement page: check), I was itching to make a layout for my scrapbook. I have had my eye on one of Ali Edwards’ pages from Valentine’s Day, so today was the day I “scraplifted” it to make a similar page of my own.
It’s been a great day. Happiness to all of you, too!

Happy Birthday, Miss Jennifer! (belated). Reading about your life has helped give me perspective and reminds me to stay inspired. Thank you so much for sharing your 45-years (and a day) worth of wisdom and smiles! I hope your special day was wonderful!

Thank you, very much! I have to agree; I never met a fellow Taurus I didn’t like!
