Today, I am 41

Tomorrow, 42. :oP Could be worse, I guess, right? I mean, I'd always rather have a birthday, than not have one.

42. I remember my mom turning 40 - she was old! I wonder if my kids think I'm old. Probably, I think all kids think all parents are old. I kinda feel old lately. Too much weight, rapidly greying hair, spots on my face that weren't there last year. Were they?

Mentally I'm not old, I remember just as much as I'm called on to, and what I don't remember I can look up or figure out quickly. Emotionally? Well I'm not hormone driven teenager (thank god!), and I'm not a know it all 20-something (again, thank god!). The rollercoaster emotions of my 30's, either pregnant, wishing I was, wishing I WASN'T, chasing toddlers and dogs and employment at the same time has brought me to this point. I like it here. And I don't look like that-> yet.
