44

DaGoddess @ 04:00

Yes, I’m 44 today.

There have been times in my life when I didn’t think I’d live to see this age. There have been times in my life when I didn’t WANT to see this age. I’m glad I’m here, though.

I don’t feel any different than I did last year except for a couple things: I’m more a peace; I’m more comfortable in my own skin; I feel good about the path I’m on; I’m not angry like I used to be.

I used to dread birthdays. I hated that people forgot my birthday, that I never got a surprise party or presents or whatever. I felt very much on the outside of my own life. You know what? I got over it and over myself. If I can’t celebrate ME, what’s the point? And so I do celebrate me.

Since it’s my birthday, here are two images from my at the dry lake bed…in my birthday suit.

Thanks to T for the awesome images!

Super big thanks to everyone who sent birthday wishes my way over on Facebook!

  3. I really like the first one :biggrin: loverly.

    And I have always been the same about birthdays, somewhat ambivalent now.

    As for comfortable in my skin, I’m older than you and we’ve already had this conversation ;)

    And happy birthday to you :may: :may: :cocktail: :princess: :cocktail: :may: :may:

  4. Happy Birthday! And is that your age, or the size of your *smack*. Sorry…I deserved that. Just envious.

    I’m almost a year ahead of you…but I don’t have any cool pictures like yours!
