| I'm wiser now . . . I'm in my 30sAt least this is what I keep telling myself!
I am an average, everyday mother of two. By average, I mean married with two kids, a cat, a car, a truck, a house with a second mortgage on it. I am privileged to stay at home with my kids, although not without some skimping and saving. I am always trying to find ways to save a buck, from cooking breakfast-for-dinner to babysitting co-ops. Speaking of average: brown hair, brown eyes, 5' 7" & "healthy" weight range. I have a gym membership I seldom use, and I think I could stand to lose 10 lbs. Doesn't this describe so many women?
I turned 30 last weekend. So far, I've dedicated myself to not letting a moment slip away. I play with my kids more, sleep much more, take care of myself before worrying about tidying the house, and get in a few belly laughs a day. My thirties so far have been phenomenal. We'll see if my hubby agrees as the dishes pile high and the laundry has started to let off a moldy smell . . .
Speaking of turning 30, I had a wonderful surprise party thrown by my hubby and attended by some of my closest friends. I was completely blown away; my sweet husband had packed out our in-law's condo at a nearby town known for its entertainment and shopping. I was expecting 2 - 3 friends and maybe their hubbies. I got 2 of my best friends & their hubbies, 2 of my best friends from my hometown & significant other, and a neighbor couple we've gotten to know and love over the last year. It was phenomenal.
On that note: I found out all my friends are liars. I guess when one wants to keep something a surprise, it's OK to boldface lie to loved ones. Hmm . . . . Actually, I loved it. Thanks all!
This paragraph is filled with the boring details of my birthday weekend. Skip it if you want. Brian and I dropped our kids off in the early afternoon on Saturday (my actual birthday). YES - this weekend was sans kids! We drove to the entertainment destination via a different route than we usually take, which was fun. We relaxed and unpacked at the condo for an hour. We decided to go out to eat, where voila - all my friends were waiting at a wonderful hole-in-the-wall Italian restaurant! I was blown away and probably ran off most of their patrons with my squeals of glee. It was fabulous. We all piled into a couple of cars and drove to the condo to unpack and decide where the birthday girl - ME - wanted to go for the rest of the night. Well . . . there was this fabulous piano bar within walking distance that I had yet to go to, so off we trekked. This venue is known for calling whomever may be the stars of the night (bachelorette party gals, birthday girls, etc) to the stage and singing raunchy songs to/about them. And anyone who knows me knows that I am a glutton for any sort of attention that might be lavished on me . . . needless to say, I loved it! Some songs were sung, some drinks were had. Overall, we were tasteful but relaxed, fun, and outgoing. When reviewing the pictures, I could see that in every one of them I was smiling and singing. So, even in retrospect and in the (bright) light of day, I could tell we were all enjoying ourselves.
So, in my 30s, I plan to continue sleeping, taking care of myself, and loving every moment with my young children and hard-working husband.
