Beach Boat Birthday - 3 of my favorite words

It is my birthday! Well technically I don't get a birthday this year, I am born on a leap year - the 29th of February. I only get a birthday once every 4 years so I am really only 7 years old! I celebrated my birthday on the weekend down the beach. We took our new (new to us) boat out for a spin around Rocky Beach, we spent hours swimming in the ocean and then we had fish chips for dinner on the sand and watched the sun sink below the horizon. It was a beautiful day.
This year I was very happy for my birthday to pass by quietly. I didn't want a birthday this year because I really did not want to turn another year older. This year I am 31. When I turned 30 last year I was a little sad that I wasn't in my twenties anymore but I was only 30 I could deal with that. It has been a much more mental shift for me to turn 31. I am now into my 30s, I feel I am getting old and I really don't want to. However I did have a fantastic year last year and it was a wonderful start to being in my 30s so I am going to try and stop dwelling on the fact that I am getting older and try and live the best life possible. Here is to another fantastic year being 30 (and 13 months).

  1. Well, happy un-birthday, I guess, to you! Oddly, I think 29 was harder for me than 30, probably because I spent that year obsessing about getting older. 31 is soooo not old. Relax and enjoy it!
