Time
is ticking away and I wish it would slow down........
I turned 38 last week. It sounds much older than 37. I've been dreading this birthday so much that I accidentally told people I was 38 most of the year. I'll be 50 in only 12 years. :O A troubling thought brought to my mind after watching a prescription drug advertisement. Those 12 years will fly by.
It was a stressful birthday, having to spend most of the day doing correspondence continuing education courses for my dental hygiene license renewal. I had forgotten all about it that month and had only one day left before it expired and 12units to complete. It's always a wonderful feeling to finish that last unit and exam to renew my license!
(I have to complete 25 hours of continuing education every 2 years)
Once that was over I was able to enjoy my birthday.
I awoke to a gift I've had on my wish list for many years now.
I feel young again being able to ride with my kids.
But the pink bike won out with style. The wheels were wider and I loved the handle bars.
Wish I could keep them both!
For dinner we went to Outback Steakhouse for my favorite: Alaskan King Crab.
Having worked all week getting up at 5:30am, I started getting sleepy at dinner and decided to postpone our late night movie. We went to it last night instead and I loved it!: (post edit-have seen it twice now)
I loved loved loved Steve Carrell and Ryan Gosling's performances. It was a surprise to see Josh Groban with a small role in the film, and Emma Stone was perfect for the role of Ryan's love interest. There were a few parts of the movie that were overdone, and some content of the movie made me feel yucky (Steve's character trying the worldly life). But the movie had true to life characters and situations that you resonate with. The movie was very funny and had a great overall message about what brings true happiness. Can't wait to buy this one!

Travis also found this Schwinn bike for me from Wal Mart at half the price.
It was very tough deciding between the two, even after
riding them around the neighborhood. This bike is
like a hybrid with it's beach cruiser style and 7 speeds.
But the pink bike won out with style. The wheels were wider and I loved the handle bars.

Birthday treat
