The Big 3-0

I Birthday
just wanted to take a moment to welcome my sister-in-law, Stacie, into the thirties. She's been in her twenties entirely too long and I'm so pleased to welcome her into my demographic: the thirty-something women. It's about damn time.



Stacie: if my math is wrong and you still have a year of twenty-something left, I apologize. Just remember, you only get to turn 29 once.

  1. My sis-in-law just turned 29. Her sister made her cake like a traffic light that said "Caution: 30 Ahead." :-)
    In February I'll hit the "backside of 30" as John Conlee sings.

  2. I know that you really like to suck up to the in-laws, and, I'm sure Stacie appreciates it, but, she was born in 1977, if you do the math, she done rolled trip 10's and is now 31. This is inside info I received from her Daddy tonight at dinner. Incidentally, she graciously accepted the complimentary desert, but quietly begged the waitress not to serenade her with the Birthday song.

  3. I beg to differ. I have been turning 29 on my birthday for several years now.

  4. I'm with New Diva. I've been twenty-nine for a while now. I must admit that since my daughter is turning 13 !) this week it is getting harder and harder to explain....

  5. ***Just a little admiration plug for your writing, Don't let this go to your head too much, I'm still waiting for a major slip up, but, I clicked on your story, Chattanooga Health Scope-Volunteers in Medicine Clinic, and you not only are doing a great job on the composition, the people at the VIM Clinic deserve nothing but praise and appreciation, kudos all around!!!

    Just say you were a young mother. It's becoming hip. Just look at The Spears family!

    Thank you. I'm proud of that article and it really is an awesome place. I wish there were more clinics like it.
