Wornoutwoman

So on the sixth of July, I joined the club.  I turned the big 4-0h.  For the weeks leading up to it, I was a bit apprehensive. I wouldn't say I was depressed, but I was definitely dreading the big day. Usually having a birthday around July 4th, my day has days of celebration. From fireworks on the 4th to multiple family functions.  It's usually a weekend of fun.  I love love love my birthday. I wasn't love, love, loving the idea of turning forty.  So my husband decided to throw me a big party, to ring in the new year in my life.  And did he throw a party ... I invited a lot of people.

Okay, Sunday I leave for one last trip! I think this is the most I've traveled for any job ever! Four weeks straight I've been going...going...gone! I won a trip for our annual bash, so a lot of us will be celebrating for 4 days next week. It will be all business attire or business casual.....bummer! I would like to be comfortable, but being dressed for work isn't always so. I will be more regular in my blogs once I'm back. I've been too busy to sit and write as I've been driving my arse off or flying somewhere for the last month. By the way, last time I got home from Savannah...I came home to a big WELCOME HOME banner with balloons and streamers. My son has already told me he wants to have another surprise party for me when I get home this time. I can't wait to sneak in at midnight and wait for him to wake up to yell, "surprise"!
