Happy Birthday to Me

Today is my 42nd birthday. I have to say I'm okay with it. I don't mind the number at all...it's just a number. I actually don't feel like I should be this age.

Truthfully I'm having more issues with having three adult children than I am with how old I am...

My day has actually been pretty good. I had to work of course, which was fine with me. Some people think they can't work on their birthday for some reason...

I did get off work early and came home to just hang out. I took a little nap, which I'm not able to do very often. Afterwards; Josh, Nicole and I took all the pampered poochies for a walk. (Since two of the bubbies are still learning to walk on a leash, we didn't walk too far). 

I think we'll go do something to celebrate tomorrow, but if not I'm okay with how my day has been.

I've received many birthday wishes, but Adams made me just laugh....

Seriously....can't complain! I've truly been blessed with a family that is one of a kind. Everyday I'm so thankful for them...

My Hidden Talent

This morning my back was hurting from all the work I did yesterday canning pears. I was on the floor stretching to help with the soreness. Then little Susie (the new dog I need to introduce) came down and was doing the stretches that dogs do...we laughed that she was showing me what to do. Then she started putting her head on the ground. So I followed her and well....

This happened....

I haven't stood on my head in probably 30 years....(geez I'm showing my age!) 

When I was little, I would practice seriously for hours to learn how to do a headstand. First I did it against the couch then got a little better...then I could do it away from the couch. There was a long period of time when my mom actually saw more of my feet than my face!

So today I did it again! I was a little wobbly, but I did it and even stayed up with control for about a minute. I won't lie...it does hurt my head! But I can still do it! 

And my family never knew this about me until today!
