Happy Birthday To........

 ME!


Today, I am 46 years old.
My mind doesn't feel like it's aging.
I still think of myself as a young, carefree girl in her late twenties or thirties.

My body, on the other hand sometimes reminds me that I am not twenty something or thirty something,
by behaving way beyond its years.
It punishes me physically, as if I were a ninety year old woman.

I breathe the air and smile that I am still here.

  3. Well HAPPY BIRTHDAY JarieLyn! I dedicate my post today to you since you almost said exactly the same thing I did about age. I expect to see a young girl in the mirror and I see my 52 year old face...lol. You're still a California Gurl to me...FINE, FRESH, FIERCE!

  5. Happy Birthday, JarieLyn. I don't think you are yet at the stage where you catch a glimpse of yourself in a mirror and let out a shriek!!

    I now say to hell with the shell, I'm doing a damn fine job of taking care of the inner child!

  8. Happy Birthday Jarie Lyn. I definitely know what you mean about this age thing: how on earth did I get to be 60 years old? That sounds ancient. I am perpetually about age 31 I think, in my mind. And you are only 46! A babe in arms, practically. I hope you had a happy celebration.

  9. A happy birthday to you! Please forgive the belatedness of the wishes -- I just found you and your blog. Great place! Love it!

    (I, too, am 46 -- although for nearly a year I thought I was 47 ... until my birthday in June and my husband pointed out my real age!) :o)
