Happy Birthday to me....

I know most folks don't like a big "hoorah" on their birthday....but I sure do.  I'm thrilled to be 35, happy, healthy and still moving forward with my life.  Lots of folks would like to say that, but can't, so I'm going to enjoy each and every day I get on this Earth.  I've got adult acne, wrinkles and a little more weight around the hips than I would like, but BIG DEAL....I've got it pretty good!  We have our house on the market right now and had an offer after just 8 days, but that eventually fell through because we weren't willing to negotiate on a major detail, so we're back at square one on that!  The cable boxes have been returned to the cable company.  Maggie said today, "my baby's gone...." meaning the TV.  She's just like her momma' because I sort of feel like that too :) but we're pressing onward!  The homeschooling is in week 2 and I'll honestly say that it's much harder than I anticipated.  I think I was expecting M1 to do too much work from the get-go, so I've chilled out a bit and started to work on having more FUN with our day.  At the rate we were going, she would have finished 2nd grade by Thanksgiving ;)  I'm also beginning to look for more life skills to focus on instead of all school work, work, work!  We'll figure out our routine soon!  Now, off to a birthday date with my favorite guy (who has a birthday in 4 days...I'm 4 days older and I DREAD the time when I'm 40 and he's still 39).  I'm such a cougar-hee, hee!
