I will be 47 tomorrow.  And seriously?  I have no hang ups about age, so I don't mind saying it.  It is what it is.  I never got the whole lying about your age thing.  My mother was the queen of that.  I find it both amusing and somewhat sad that I never knew how old she was until she died.  She never would tell.  Not even her own flesh and blood.  Is that weird?  
I took tomorrow off work.  I wish I could say that it was to celebrate but the reality is that it is going to be round 2 of the root canal (insert scary music here...LOL).  Oh well.  I am reserving this weekend for celebrations and cake, so a silly ol' root canal is NOT going to spoil my fun.  
I wish I had words of wisdom to share from my 47 years of life experience.  The only thing I can say with certainty is this:  try to go for MORE fun and LESS worry.  Things happen exactly the way that they were meant to, and wasting time worrying about it doesn't change a thing.  It just makes you miserable.  There is more than enough misery in the world without any of us adding to it, so....yeah.  There you have it.
