Today we will celebrate the 11th birthday of my daughter. We've gotten her some new clothes, new basketball shoes, and a portable basketball hoop. I'm excited to see what she thinks of the hoop as we've talked about getting her one for about 2 years now and we finally bucked up and did it. I'm making confetti cupcakes for her and we're having a little family get together for her at my mom's house today.
So needless to say... this will not be a lazy Sunday for me.... :(
Have you ever had the kind of apifany that seriously throws you for a loop for days?
I've recently come to realize that my life consists of work, sleep, bathroom breaks, cigarettes, & on occassion facebook. But lately it's only been the first 4. I'm 34 years old and I guess it just hit me a few days ago as I listened to my aunts and uncles talk about thier retirement plans that I still have 33 years of work, sleep, bathroom breaks, and cigarettes before I'll be able to enjoy my life without having to work 40 hrs a week. WTF? Really? I mean honestly who decided that 65 or 67 is the apprpriate age to retire? Why can't it be like 40 or 50 when you're still young enough to enjoy it? Let's face it, there are soooo few that will make enough money to retire early and there's even some that won't ever be able to retire. I just want to enjoy my life and it seems like there's always something else that's more important. Bills, gas, groceries, school, gifts, and on, and on, and on.... Will it ever stop? No... but that's not going to stop me from complaining about it because that's the only way that I'm able to make myself feel better about the whole damn nasty little circle that never ends.
