Birthday Month

So, evidently, we're in some weird time warp right now, and instead of April showers, we're having April flurries.   Odd, I tell ya.  Odd.     So, I figured since I have nothing better to do (other than clean the house and do laundry), I figured I'd update the ol' blog.    Especially, because, it's my birthday month.   Yep, I'm hitting 40 in ten days and I made a short list, in my phone, a few weeks ago, of things I want to do as I turn 40.  Or maybe, shortly after I turn 40.   I'm a procrastinator, so I don't know when "said" goals will actually be accomplished, but the intent is there.  I promise.  But it won't be before I turn 40, I can almost guarantee that.     My list, so far, is pretty boring, but who knows maybe I'll think of something more daring in the days that follow.       I wanted to do something fun on Facebook for my birthday month, like a giveaway or something, but I couldn't come up with anything creative, so I settled for just using a childhood picture as my profile photo.. (which reminds me, I need to dig out a bunch of old photos today, for my husband to use on a collage at my party.    Yes, I actually did want a party.  The girl who usually wants nothing, actually made it a a point to ask for a party.  Why not?   I've had a rough few years, so why not find something celebration-worthy and party it up?    I don't fret turning 40, but I do have regrets about not accomplishing certain things by this time in my life.   BUT, I also know that it's never too late, so I may surprise myself (and others) in the near future.    So, let's see...   What was I saying?   Oh, yes!    (memory loss already?)    My list of things I have decided to do as I turn 40....(in no specific order)

♦ get my nose pierced (I have wanted a little diamond stud forever and never did it)
♦ learn to knit (or crochet) is there a difference?  If so, it doesn't matter.
♦ start writing again (and possibly start the book I've always wanted to write)
♦ get a mammogram (that may seem odd, but it's important, and I know I need to) last was almost 4 yrs ago
♦ exercise every day (I've actually been doing wellwith this one! Once I got in a routine, I became consistent)
♦ blog way more often than I do now
♦ get another tattoo (in memory of Mom)

Hey, I told you it was boring.  But, that's it.   Like I said, there will be more added, as I think of them, but this is what I had for now.
