I am SO thirty-three!


When I was a kid, thirty-three seemed like...a million. I could not fathom being this age.

But I am.

I'm thirty-three today.

My kids are ten, almost eleven.


My husband is still thirty-two, but he'll be joining me soon enough.


I don't have a baby with said husband. I never will. But I have a dog. She burps a lot, but that's no indicator of her awesome amount of awesomeness.



And things are just fine.




Even when they suck? It's all just fine.

Happy Birthday!!

Mine is right around the corner and though it's still not "a milestone" birthday, I'm dreading it nonetheless, and I don't know why.

At 28, I've already owned two homes, had two babies in the last two years, have a wonderful husband and we both have careers in this terrible economy. And yet, hitting 28 in the next coming weeks is something I'm not looking forward to and not because it's "old" or any such nonsense.

Time just passes too damn quickly.

I guess with age comes self-confidence. That is a very unflattering photo of you! I am shocked you would put such an ugly picture of yourself on your blog!

Happy Birthday!! I turn 33 on my next one too.

That is a really fantastic picture!! You look like you are having lots of fun :)

And? Even if the picture wasn't really great, I can't imagine why someone would feel the need to call it ugly! Some people.

Happy Birthday! You've had a lot of exciting things going on lately. I'm betting things are going to keep on happenin!

And if you think 33 seemed like a million, wait til you hit 36, which I'm about to do this weekend!

Happy Birthday!!!

33? Hmmmm.. that was about a decade ago. It was mildly traumatic.. that whole third of a century thing.

Overall, it was still a pretty awesome year.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! If you were here, or I were there, I would so celebrate by making you cupcakes. Mostly, so I could eat the cupcakes. But still. I hope you have the best birthday!

Wish I was 33 again...I'm staring 42 in the face. Sad thing is I had to pause to do the math and remember how old I am/will be. Sad. Very Sad.

Okay fine... my birthday wishes are belated here - BUT! They were on time on Facebook. And that counts too, no?

And your life is so very fine. One look at your husband & children and how could it not be fine?!
