Wrapped Birthday

Who would have thought this would have been caught in the way-back machine????

I’m not done celebrating my birthday, thus I’ve not talked about it.  However, the rumors are true, I did in fact turn 35 on Tuesday.  I’m not 100% dealing with it well.  (But for the record, I turned 35 with a sink full of dishes and lightning didn’t strike, thus I think I’m not done being young.)  And I feel I must point out that when you are told someone is having a wee bit of trouble turning 35, mentioning that it is half of 70 might not be your go-to plan.  Just saying.

But I am not done celebrating my birthday yet.  I still have dinner with my boys and then there is the trip away. Ah, the birthday celebration continues.

So, since I’m not ready to wrap up my birthday — but I will say that I’ve not had a homemade birthday cake in YEARS and Tuesday my knitting friends pulled out a chocolate cake to die for!! — I have burning questions.

  1. Is 5 too young to make a kid do all his own laundry?  He’s suddenly decided that he must wear MANY outfits a day (even multiple pairs of PJs a night) and I’m tired of trying to keep up on his clothing needs.
  2. Does anyone need proof that the original Star Trek was super boring?  My child falls asleep during it nearly everytime.  He doesn’t fall asleep during Next Generation, just saying.
  3. Why do I always seem to be walking uphill?
  4. Is it actually possible to go to bed without a sink full of dishes in this house?
