And it all got another year older and some parts got longer....meh.

I woke up this morning and rushed to the bathroom to look at myself naked in the mirror.
Sure enough, my boobies were a little longer (yes, I said longer) than they were yesterday.
My flabby belly flap from having four kids was just a little more flappy and my thighs look like hamburger stuffed into a pair of pantyhose.


"I really need to shave my legs...."

On the bright side of things, my shaved off eyebrow is coming back in and my ass still looks ok.
The face is holding up pretty good too. I guess I can't complain.

Wanna know the weirdest part?

I feel better about myself than I did when I was 23.

Who would have thought that 20 years ago, when I was firmer, smaller, younger and had more energy (mainly because I hadn't had the remaining three kiddos yet) I wasted a lot of my life worrying about stupid things that don't matter?

I actually found a picture of my on my twenty third birthday....



Pretty ain't it?

In spite of the wild hair and stupid grin on my face I really did stress myself out over stupid shit.
Now?
I don't sweat the small stuff...or at least I try not to.
As I've gotten older I've come to realize the difference between the things that matter and the things we "think" matter.
Oh yeah...I've also learned how to forgive myself.I'm more forgiving of my imperfections.
I guess that's the best benefit of getting older.

I know I haven't been blogging much lately but between Miss KIA's graduating and trying to clean my house for painting, it's been crazy.
So today I decided to take it easy and give myself a birthday present and blog.
(I do miss it when I don't get to do it you know.)

I was considering baking myself a birthday cake but I've decided to go with jello instead....



Who needs cake when there's vodka?

Anyway, the old Blonde Goddess here isn't the only one who was born on this wonderful day in history.
Good old Stew Magoo was born on the same day as me.
And Brenda Love was born yesterday.
Normally I suck at doing shout outs for birthdays but today I will do both Brenda and Stew and send you both their way.
Give 'em some lovin won't you?

Here's to both of them!



Anyway, that's all I have time for. I need to shower and I may have to work today. I won't know until they call so I have to be ready.
If things slow down then I will address my two awards that I got recently. One from John and the other from BuzzardBilly.
(I am so undeserving of awards...I honestly am...)

So with that said, have a great day and be sure to drink a toast or eat some toast in my honor. I've survived 43 years without being institutionalized and people, THAT is worth celebrating!
