Yeah, the Big 4-0 fast approacheth. It's really bothering me, too. I called my brother today to wish him a Happy Easter, and he mentioned the big day coming up fast.
"How old will you be, Sus?"
"Oh, I'll be 40."
"40?"
"Yes, 40. And it's really getting to me for some reason."
"Well, just be thankful for another day of life."
Of course, I agreed with him. And I AM thankful for yet another day on this earth. The alternative is, well, unacceptable. But 40? Really? Certainly doesn't feel like it.
To take my mind off things, the day after my birthday, the kids and I will be accompanied by my beloved and his son to the St. Louis Cardinals vs. the Springfield Cardinals game. Yes, I actually got tickets. We'll be sitting on the grass in General Admission, but by golly, we've got tickets! The weather is supposed to fairly decent, so I'm guessing it'll be a fun time. I really can't wait for this, as I have been chomping at the bit for baseball season to start.
And to take my mind off things even more, my beloved has planned 2 games of the Cardinals vs. the Cubs for us in St. Louis in May. Now THAT, my friends, is a birthday present to top all birthday presents. He certainly knows the way to my heart. :-) Teehee!
Okay, so I feel better now. This shouldn't be a blog. It should be a vent.

Hopefully the fun time you have on Friday and Saturday will help ease the blow. You look AWESOME for 40!
You lucky dog! I thought about trying to get tickets, but decided I am not that big of a Cardinals' fan. My tickets just came in the mail for the springfield cards vs. arkansas travelers in July. Taking my mom, aunt, uncle, and niece and the hubby of course! Should be fun. Enjoy all of your baseball birthday celebrations and thanks for the help today. Remind me to tell you about a phone message that was received about me today. Very suspicious...
