The big THREE-O.

So my birthday is coming up next month, I'll be thirty. I don't mind turning thirty, honestly. I've never been afraid of aging (grey hair, wrinkles, etc.). Although I don't like how hard it seems to be to lose weight now when before what I am doing now would have made me drop a TON of weight and then some. But, ah well. Now, I am looking forward to getting rid of my acne. If that means wrinkles, so be it!! I'll take them over what I have now, any day.

But the reason I bring this up is because Matt asked what I wanted for my birthday. Originally I told him I wanted a big birthday bash. But well, after thinking about it, I realized it would be quite a hassle. Not to mention we would really need to get on it ASAP since my birthday is in less than a month and invitations would need to get out, the planning, etc.. But it would be fun to get a whole lot of friends together. Then the question would be, what would we do with Maddy?! Ah, too much hassle. So then Matt said I need to come up with what I want or want to do.

I don't know. I don't need anything. There's really nothing that I want. I have more than my fair share of jewerly. I don't need clothes. I really don't want to go on a trip (I like our little weekends away spread out more than some big trip that takes up the cost of our weekends away). Nothing seemed right.

But while I was in the shower I figured it out! I want a new shower! I want a new bathtub! I want to renovate our bathroom!!! So Matt is all for that and now we're starting to think about just how much we want to have done, how much we want to do ourselves and to what extent we want to do it.

Hey, it takes 'recaulk the bathtub' off my list that's been on there for MONTHS. That in and of itself is quite a birthday present. I love to erase things from my list.

BAH! No party?!
I can totally help with invitations and everything if you need it. :)

True, a shower you will definitely be able to enjoy for longer, but hee hee you only turn 30 once!

Mom B.:

Bathroom renovation sounds like a good idea. It's your "thing", do what you want to do - I can't tell you who to sock it to!!"
