Another day older and wiser?

June 7, 2009 by Michelle Hinckley |

When I was 13 years old I tried to imagine what I would be like when I was 25 years old. I envisioned myself wearing makeup, working a rockin’ career, and older and wiser. Now that I’m 32, I do wear makeup (usually only on Sundays) , I am a mother (I’d consider that a rockin’ career [most days]), but I still feel like I’m 13.

I wonder what I’ll be like when I’m 42? I’m envisioning I’ll finally be able to sit on the commode without anyone watching me. Maybe I’ll try wearing makeup 3 days a week instead of just 1. I’ll still have my rockin’ career as mom but I’ll also explore something that gives me a creative outlet…and I’ll be making gobs and gobs of money doing it.

Look what my three men suprised me with this morning in bed. Aren’t they sweet?! They said a birthday gift is hidden somewhere in the house. My only clue is 1999. I’ve looking around for a half-hour…now I’m bored…so I quit.

    Happy Birthday old friend! Are you really that much older (and wiser:) than me? Perhaps the 1999 refers to a party! Rock on!

    Yea, I know how you feel. I feel like I’m about 30 years old, but mirror mirror on the wall doesn’t tell me that at all….
