Welcome to my Daily Wishes and thoughts

Ok, I just turned 46 yesterday and I'm really not sure how that happened. When I was younger someone that was 46 was old...am I old? I don't feel any different then I did when I was 30 but there are definitely signs such as having to wear these ugly reading glasses and not being able to stay up late anymore but those are little insignificant changes. Other than that I feel pretty good but the biggest reminder that I'm getting a little older is the fact that my children are now 22 and 19. Can't be 29 with them being that old...just kidding. I've never been one of those people that try to hide my age so I've embraced each year. Actually the only year that even affected me was when I turned 25 which meant that I was a quarter of a century old. I won't kid you..that day I was a little depressed but the others have come and went without even a tear. My goal thru this journal is to start my journey and take you with me if you want to tag along. First I was a daughter, then a wife, and mother. Now it's my turn to try all the things that I've wanted to. I'm not afraid of failing and it might even be kind of interesting. I've always only pursued things that I knew I could be successful at. This will be a time of change and I'll promise to not make it sappy. I'm going to end with something each day that I was thankful about and a wish for tomorrow. Of course I am always thankful for my children, health, friends and right now for having a job (even if its one I don't really like) These grateful notes will be something little and unexpected. Today I am thankful for the thunderstorms that lasted for most of the afternoon and kept us all at home which doesn't happen that often. My wish for tomorrow is that I'm productive at work and get to the tag office without getting a ticket to renew my tag which I thought was good until the end of the month but actually expired on my birthday...wish me luck.
