Happy 40th Birthday To Me

I'm 40 today. No mid-life crisis. I already had one the previous 5 years. I was so depressed while pregnant with Kalian.

It's amazing. I am doing something fun, challenging, new and stimulating so no incredible crisis, though 40 does make me feel old, whatever that means.

We celebrated on Saturday night, so it feels like a normal work-my-ass off kind of school day with a paper due tomorrow. That's OK.

Yesterday, I experienced the kind of decisions I'm needing to make all of the time. Another reason why I xnayed the B&B was that I wanted to go to a mysore yoga class. I havent' gone in over a month. It's tough to justify the time to make it over there. But when I woke up in the morning I knew that I needed to study for most of the day, so I decided that I'd rather spend my free time with the kids. It was nice. We hung out, got out winter clothes - I thought I actually have some - it was more like one sweater and a pair of long johns. Maybe a b-day gift to myself will be to go to TJMaxx.
