Me and the Fam! I have news. A few weeks ago I celebrated my 40th birthday. It was my second COVID/lockdown birthday and I wasn't even sad about it. I'm not a huge birthday bash kind of girl, so not having to break the news to everyone that there would be no crazy party felt sooooooo good. I've thought a lot about this post. About turning 40. What do I want to share here to help document this milestone birthday? When my kids look back and read this online journal so to speak, what do I want them to know about what I was thinking on May 11, 2021? And here's what I came up with: On celebrating my special day: COVID birthdays aren't so bad as an adult. Sure they suck shit for kids (can't have a party, can't see their family and friends, hardly any presents because said parties are a no-no). But for me, as an adult, I understand why I can't party it up with like 50 of my closest friends and family members. I understand that a Vegas trip is out of the questi

I loved this! I always like reading posts about the blogger :) Fellow Canadian too, Born and raised in Vancouver! Have a lovely day xo
ReplyDeleteI love reading these! They're fun to answer and even more fun to learn things about people that you otherwise would probably never find out. I've never thought to ask my friends if they could do the splits, for example! Haha.
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on the clothing, for sure! I used to live in jeans until I gained a lot of weight over the past couple of years and now I live in the leggings that "hold everything in". I would love to feel comfy in jeans again! ;)
Oh, fun! I'm also a Taurus! Last thing I bought was a costume gavel and fingerless gloves for my Halloween costume!
