30 and Hot

Last night I started to write my last post as a 29 year old, then I got tired and fell asleep. What a classic way to kick off my 30s! So, today I am the big 3-0. At 30, I am cuter and more fabulous than I was at 20, so I don't mind moving into a new decade! ;)

Dave is in Key West for the entire week...poor guy. All he has to do is drink pina coladas, go to the beach, drink some more, make a decision about where to eat, have another pina colada...you get the picture. My birthday could've been sad and lonely, but....

1. I got a kiss from Rooney this morning right when my alarm went off
2. Made it to swim. Got birthday rights in my lane (kind of). Joy didn't kick my butt too much. Laura is in trouble for skipping.
3. Got brownies from my back row, jelly beans from the boy in front of me, and a running shirt from my other fellow 30 year old at school this morning.
4. Came home to a HUGE floral arrangement on my front porch from my friend Dolly. She has never, ever forgotten to send me flowers on my birthday, and they are always top notch.
5. Had a card waiting on the table from my sister with 2 swim lessons with Lesley Brainard. Yes!!! Someone finally has listened to me about what I like/ and need!!!!
6. Looked up in the closet for a gift from Dave: some fabulous earrings and a running top! Yes, again, someone got me some training stuff...stuff I like!!!! And, the earrings are beautiful too!
7. Tonight I will go get a good drink. It doesn't matter if it is one other person with me or 10...today has been a great day!

Thank you to all of my other fabulous friends...even my young 20 something year old friends. To a new decade: may I actually finish school and Ironman Florida.
