49 and Freaking Out!
Oh My God! I've just had my 49th birthday; well actually it was in July and now it's already October! Nine months to go and then I am no longer in my forties. How in the hell did this happen? I just told my Blogging teacher the title of my Blog page and she said you don't look 49. I love her! Does she have any idea how much maintenance that it takes to Not look 49? Well, I regularly hi-lite my brown hair with blonde streaks, helps hide those white hairs that keep appearing. I spend entirely too much money on those anti-wrinkle face creams. Well, that is another post to look forward to. What I am wondering is what will I say now when people ask me my age. Before I got away with "mid 40s." I think I will lie. The only problem with that is that I want to have a 50th Birthday party. If I have a 50th, then all my freinds will know my age. Worse, if I invite one or two freinds from work, then everyone at my work will know. How embarrassing. I wonder if men care if everyone knows they are 50? The other thing is that I had a child when I was 40, so I have a child in year three. Most of the mothers in my child's class are younger than me. So now everyone at the school will know. Will they care? Probably not. I will care though. There goes that kid's mother. Can you believe that she is 50 years old? I am so worried about turning 50, that I am missing 49.
