So today was my last day I could say I'm in my 30's! So how does one spend their final day in the 30's!???!!!! Well got the kids off to school and went back to bed.....surprise...surprise! This time instead of laying on the sofa I went up to one of the kids rooms which is the equivalent to Vegas, No clock, No light, I love it I would be willing to trade since my room gets much morning light! I awake to a phone call from my Sister at 10am....right away she says did I wake you????? My first instinct is to lie...just because I'm kinda getting the reputation of a slug! But its my Sister so I say yeah just getting up. Anyway she just called to shoot the shit so we get off pretty quick. HUM...if I just close my eyes for a few more minutes I should be alright. Phone rings again...Hey its Ashley making sure your up....wow what a bad rep I must have getting wake up calls at FUDGE 11:30. Well of course I have a million things to do since my B-day party is in a few days and the kids have all their V-day stuff on Friday! So I finally get out of the house at 12:30 which only gives me 2 and a half hours to get a bunch of shit done. I end up at Walmart they have the best price on beer for my party! So I'm in the check out line (story of my life) the girl asks me for my ID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yes you heard it right THE DAY BEFORE I TURN 40 I GET CARDED!!!!! Now yes she is foreign and we all know the foreign people card everyone in fear of losing their job, but I DON'T CARE I GOT CARDED! Anyway through out the day I find myself reflecting on my life a bit...so what if this or what if that???!!!! I'm a total over thinker by nature. Then my mind goes totally south and starts thinking what if I don't make it to 40, I've been bitching alot and they say the universe listens to you....what if I get punished???!!!??? Well I have been asking the universe to be ridiculously rich and I'm still waiting so maybe I'm safe! So the day goes on I let Cole have a few friends over which is kinda silly on my last 30's day cause boys are so chaotic...even when they play nice. I find a very reasonably priced bartender for my party which is the highlight of my day....he kinda sounds cute on the phone. Hoping I not only have a great bartender but alittle eye candy for the party. Ya know you get older and its all about fantasy...LOVE U Honey!!!! Parents came in tonight from Chicago, I always love when they are here! As I look at the clock I have 15 minutes left in my 30's...well technically speaking I wasn't born till 12pm. I discovered some signs in my yard about 40 being the new 30 which I know damn well is my friend Jen Beck.....I'm saving those suckers for her! Maybe some people in the hood don't think of me as 40 and now she has ruined it by putting it out there!!!!! Best of all my sister made me a magazine cover with a not so great picture of me saying 40 and FAB! She also made stickers of my face saying lordy lordy look who's 40! My kids want to wear them to school. I told them what if someone thinks Mama is so much younger than that???? They just laugh and say they want to wear a sticker! Anyway another FAB day with the people I live with!
