Aging...Screw you!

Well another birthday is coming for me next week and as far as I'm concerned this will be my 39th and last one!
 Not that there is anything wrong with 40 but I find that thinking about entering that decade brings out the weirdest thoughts in my head like,

1) will I need anti aging stuff now?
2) If I use anti aging stuff when I don't need anti aging stuff will that make me age?
3) will gravity take over now and make everything drop to the ground?
4) will my children think I'm not cool anymore.

Will it lead to this????

I know that this is ridiculous but I can't stop them from creeping in and it freaks me out!

I went to the doctors last week and when he asked me how I was I told him " I'm almost 39 and not falling apart yet! " you know what he said??

" Just wait it's coming... "

 That is NOT encouraging. Once he started talking about Peripause...I tuned out. I am completely in denial about that and menopause in general. All I can say is I WILL TAKE THE DRUGS or take up drinking. I've seen many menopausal woman in my time turn to the bottle instead of the meds, maybe not though It only makes them crazier.

I think am getting far ahead of myself (hopefully very far).

I keep thinking I'm going to wake up and my face will look different or I'll develop a pouch you can hide a large bag of Nibs in or something! It's freaking me out! Mind you I won't turn 40 until next year and think of all of those beautiful people out there that are 40 and even 50 years old and they look fabulous. I'm not saying that the next phase of life is awful by any means and part of my life is just starting. That I look forward to!

If need be though I'm not one for plastic surgery or botox or collagen any of that shit, BUT... if I need to be lifted as in boob job lifted then that I might go for...maybe...if I'm not a complete chicken about it.

I do believe that you are only as old as you feel and I don't feel 39 yrs old! I will obsess about this until the 30th and then it'll be forgotten until this time next year when I have a total freak out before I embrace the next 10 yrs. when The Gong Show will be gone and I'll be left with the zoo.

I guess we'll see...

What you see is what you get!

You know we have a houseful of teenagers 90% of the time that come by the house. That's fine with me because I'd rather have the kids at home rather than wandering around getting into trouble and me sitting by the phone waiting for to cops to call or for one of them calling to tell me they did something stupid.

I have actually been very lucky with the 3 of them and for the most part they are responsible ( sometimes ) at least they tell me when they are not responsible and in most cases I really didn't want to know but I have fun trying to horrify them and their friends which is truly one of the funniest things ever!

I'm extremely tired today because I got caught up in a conversation with the kids last night. It started out on a serious note and then quickly changed into one of those " why are we talking about this? " conversations. I think me and my girls have been able to completely horrify the men in our lives and thank goodness they have a sense of humour!

From insecurities and when I was young stories to the masterpiece last night after talking about LuLu Lemon pants.

Asses... yup that's it...bums and the ability too take any ass and make it spectacular...

The fact is that as women we ALL look at other women's bums. Shapes, sizes, lift ect. Yes it is a fact that we may hate you for your perfect apple shaped or heart shaped ass and lucky you for being genetically perfect in the glute area!

As my co-worker and new writing partner informed me there are several different  types that stand out.

The athletic bum we all want,

 The hungry bum we never want to eat our pants,

 The straight bum they now make implants to remedy,

 The bum I can't locate. ( those are awful )


So as the boys are entertained and astonished that we women so much pay attention to these things and each other. I told them, we are critical of ourselves and therefore others even when we don't mean to be!

We will compare ourselves to other women unconsciously and unwillingly it just happens so bare with us when we get like that and just tell us how perfect we are!

Even if we don't believe you we will appreciate it and for that we will make your lives easier...

until you piss us off and have to start over BUT that's why you love us.

Quick update

Well it's been pretty busy around here, which is strange because it seems like I'm standing still half the time!
we're tyring to get our business off the ground and I'm loving the research and development part of it! What is it you ask???? Let's just say it has something to do with Customized+Ambiance+Organic+other words for natural products. The other half has to do with Restoration projects...ya I know two completely different ends of the spectrum but both useful.

Let's not forget the writing! The book is coming along nicely, slowly some days but nicely I did bounce around from Script to Novel then back again...and again but I've realized that the book is the best way to go for me. I would still love to write a script and hopefully can turn the book into one in the future.

Hey I know my limits.

There are lots of irons in the fire right now, hoping not to get burned by any but if so I'll just slap on the cooling cream and keep poking.

Those people though that are out to hinder my progress by pissing me off to the point that I can't think straight because they have annoyed me to the point of temporary insanity... you know who you are.

Pay back's a bitch and here I come!
