Well I turned the big 40 yesterday. We celebrated last weekend. With my husband being a truck driver we hardly get to celebrate events on their actually days.

I got the usual oh you're getting old comments from family and friends. All in good fun though. But it's what my daughter said that put the biggest smile on my face. She said I didn't look like what she imagined forty to look like. Of course when I was eleven I thought forty was ancient, so I can just imagine what she imagined forty to look like. It was just so cute the way she said it.

I am taking this weekend off to take my family to the zoo and a picnic. It's so beautiful outside I would hate to waste it sitting around in the house all day.
