So this year was supposed to be special because it was my GOLDEN BIRTHDAY. For those new to the phrase, I turned 29 on the 29th, of July. As a kid I remember thinking I was going to have to wait
so long before I got to have my golden birthday. 29 was
sooooo old too. But came it did and I still feel young! ...well, most of the time. Anyway, we didn't get to do much. I ran a few errands in the morning and ate whatever sounded good. (which means eating very poorly and not healthy at all for the day) Thankfully John is working hard as a nurse and making ends meet for our family. The hardest part is he typically works knock shifts, 6pm-6am. It's pretty awful as far as ever wanting to see each other goes... So, he worked the night before and slept til about 2:30 on the day of my birthday. We took EZ over to his Grandma's and then John and I went to see the new superman movie, Man of Steel. We rarely get to see movies anymore because of the wonderful blessing that is our son... and I'm a superhero lover so this was the only thing I chose to do that really mattered to me. The movie didn't disappoint! I hear they plan to make another and this time, Bruce Wayne will be in it too. YAY! Okay, so after the movie we spent a little time with John's family playing at the nickel arcade and eating ice cream. So, it was a good day, but not that 'special' of a day. I guess I had my hopes up, being my GOLDEN birthday and all. But I guess that as you get older, getting older really isn't much of a celebration. Plus next year I'll be 30 and I told John that I want a cruise. So, there's that! That will be a much more exciting blog post. I did make myself some yummy cookies though and ate so many I got a stomach ache. It was a satisfied-ill sort of feeling. Don't they look delicious?
