Happy Birthday to me

Today is my birthday which is conveniently located about midway through the year. I always find it an excellent time to reflect on my yearly goals. (Just one of the ways I like to punish myself on my birthday.) So far I have been falling very short for my goal of writing every day. This blog only serves to prove that point. My last entry was in May. Sheesh, that is embarrassing.

So this year I turn 41. I'm still trying to get use to 40 and now I have to deal with 41. I guess it's time to buck up and just deal with the fact that I am, indeed, in my 40s. There is no denying it. The good news is that a lot of decent things happened while I was 40. I got a new job that includes a bigger paycheck, I've found an exercise routine that I've been able to stick to, I've gotten a lot of big projects done around the house (thanks to my wonderful husband), and lots more. So maybe this being-in-your-40s-thing isn't so bad.
