oh 40

This last year I turned
FFFFFFFFORTY! ~40~
Uggggggggg!

I can remember someone saying that wisdom comes with age. 
If wisdom comes from lessons learned from mistakes made,
than I can say I am a much wiser person at 40.  

I have learned that~
♥ I am married to the only person I truly trust!!!!!  ~smooch, love ya baby~
• every morning I have the choice to make it a good day, it doesn't just happen.
• there is no need to look for happiness, you don't find it you make it.
• you can stay in shape without going to the gym, just know you have to be happy with a circle shape if that's
   what you choose. 
• taking time everyday to look your best is good for the soul. 
• taking a shower is the best time to cry, you don't have to worry about ruining your makeup that way.
• going to bed with the dishes done and kitchen clean helps you sleep better.
• a house isn't a home without laughter in it.
(I got this from Thayne) If you're gonna do something bad, don't ever have a witness. 
• be your best and when climbing to the top don't ever forget those you stepped on to get there.
• be careful who you trust.  Don't ask why just be careful!
• you don't have to cut your hair short when you turn 40.  Stupid rule.
• fashion rules are for followers and who makes the rules anyways.  BE yourself! 
• if you have to tell people how great you are then you're not that great.  If you are great people will tell you.
• wearing high heels is slimming and gives you better posture.
• tan fat looks better than white fat

I have more lessons and will add to the list later, but the most important rule I have learned so far is......
○ I am responsible for the choices I make.  darn-darn-darn!

NOW things I have decided at 40
♥ I am married to the only person I truly trust!!!!!  ~smooch, love ya baby~
♥ I am going to do things for myself ~ it's not selfish, it's healthy!
♥ I need a nose job and a chemical peel ~ yes I do!
♥ more lunch dates, they make me happy
♥ to make my bedroom a sanctuary
♥ I am going to take a photography class

40 isn't so bad.  
I may look in the mirror and see someone who looks older, but inside I still feel 18.
