33
I am 33. My birthday was yesterday and not a totally tragic event. I didnot lose 33 lbs like I had hoped. But my clothes are loose on me and people are noticing that I have lost weight. Even if my husband doesn't. He just sees me every day... But I am ok with being 33. I am not where I thought I would be at 33. But where I am is a good place. I am happy in this 33 place. I have a great family and a nice home and I love my town and I love being involved in things. I have good friends who care about me and what I am doing. I don't get to eat good food all of the time but I made an exception on my birthday. Justin got me a chocolatey chocolate ice cream cake. It was devil's food cake with chocolate ice cream with chocolate shavings in it, then covered in fudge ganache. It was decadent, and evil and something I should only do once a year. But I felt like I deserved it; being 33 and all. So am I in my mid-thirties now? Or am I still in my early 30's? I think I would like to stay in my early 30's for one more year, if that is ok. I am still trying hard to deal with the fact that I am no longer in my 20's. This is difficult. Although someone said to me just last week that I don't look old enough to have a 6 year old. Do you know how GREAT that felt!!!??? Conceivably I could have a child much older than 6. I could have a 13 year old! Because I am 33. But having a young oldest child keeps me young. Caroline turning 7 is going to be a hard day for me. Just a few more weeks away... But for now, I will have to be happy being 23. Oh, I mean 33, that's right, 33.

Happy Birthday! 33 is definitely NOT in the mid 30's. 33 is really just in the early 30's, if even that. It is really just barely out of the 20's...
Do I sound like I am trying to convince myself? I turn 33 in Dec. and I just truly feel like we are in our prime.
Hope you have a fabulous year and many happy returns(do you know what that means?)
Happy Birthday!
You are definately in your early 30's. Mid starts at 35 and up. Late 30's would be 38 and 39. 30's are really looking young to me. The ancient one approaching her mid 60's. Don't you sound so young!
Happy birthday belatedly! Enjoy those early thirties. As one who is officially in her mid-thirties and with the 40's fast appoaching, all I can say is... it doesn't get any easier to take.
Got any of that cake left? Want to share...?
Happy Birthday! I had a hard time entering my thirties too. Still do. But they say 40 is the new 30 which can only mean 30 is the new 20 and that makes us still very young indeed. Enjoy that cake and stuff some in an envelope for me too.
I feel like a schmuck (I have no idea how to spell that!). I was going to get you a birthday wish for your birthday and then totally spaced it! Sorry! And happy birthday a couple of days late.
