Feeling Older

Last week I celebrated my 29th birthday. Not a true milestone birthday I know but a significant birthday for me. Why? - you might ask. Because this is the first birthday in a long time were I felt significantly older. I had no plans, no parties, no presents, no perceptions. I took the day off work and stayed home most of the day. I slept until 9:00 am which is really significant for me. I went to lunch with my Dad, did a little shopping with one of my best friends - Meghan, went out to dinner and went to bed early because I had work early the next morning. Maybe it was the lack of activity that had me feeling older or maybe it was that I had found out that Chuck Norris was 70 that made me feel older.

Next year I will turn 30 - a true milestone in the way of birthdays and I will hope to impart some true wisdom to my growing family.
