Never knew....

...back when I was growing up (wait, I think I am still working on that phase in my life), I considered 40 to be OLD!!  As in "over the hill", "one foot in the grave", grey hair & unruly wrinkles...get me a walker & denture cream old...but guess what?  It isn't quite that bad, YET!!!
There are a few things that are true about turning 40 that I am not liking, but for the most part the past 9 months haven't been all that bad and now that I am looking at turning 41 in less than 3 months, 40 feels young, 41 now feels old.
I have been wanting to write a book titled "I didn't think 40 would feel like this", hitting on points that I have felt as I have approached & journeyed through the first year (nearly) of being 40...but a book feels overwhelming & very, very tiring, so I decided to try it out here, on this blog, just to see if I can create enough to compose a book, who knows, you may just be reading the NEXT New York Best seller & you did it for free....
So I am going to take a shot at this, letting you in on some of my thoughts (now mind you that this is a ROUGH draft of a book, some of it may be feelings of the day & not really pertain to my title of being 40, so bear with me), I want POSITIVE, NON-CHEESE, NON-GASSY comments; truth, suggestions, no input on my being way off base....so if you can't give me that, PLEASE email me & let me know, so that I can ignore you & your comments!!
SOME posts will take several days to complete, because quite frankly I can't really spend more  than about 20 minutes a day, nor do I WANT to spend a lot of time on it, if I do, I will hate it, I don't want to hate it....also it may read like my brain works, -- scattered!!!  (Besides it is only a rough draft, some days may be rougher to read than others....ha ha)  So there may be posts that are started, not to be finished for several days, weeks or even months...I am my boss, the boss of this blog & I can't wait to do with it whatever I want...GO ME!!!
Looking forward to taking this journey with me, my thoughts & I!!
