Well, that could mean 30 ....... or 90. Everything else is middle aged. Happy Birthday! (Psst: It's 40.) News Alert: FORTY IS NOT OLD.Repeat: FORTY IS NOT OLD!I speak from experience. Forty is just the beginning. I'm not sure that even sixty is old. But maybe. So have a Happy Birthday and stop sweating it.

Compared to whom? Congratulations! Well, possibly my mental age of 12. I am actually five and a half. Maybe six. Which makes it absolute nonsense that my little sister turns sixty tomorrow. Julia, had a REALLY TERRIBLE cow chasing adventure today, her and her men and me.

in re forty being Not Old: when I was forty I could have done evenrthing I did Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday before lunch and then attended a memorial service in the afternoon and stood and talked to everyone. Instead, the last two items on that list have left me in too much pain to sit on the stupid pews at St. Bennies, so we are home from church today.
Julia, also, it's supposed to be Not Raining. It's RAINING. Phooey.

It's RAINING. Phooey. Yeah, that. If I want to get any major housework done, I can't waste energy making myself presentable. If I have to go out, I can't plan for any major housework, unless I want to spend the next day or two in an exhausted heap. Today was sloppy pajamas and uncombed hair, but I scrubbed the kitchen floor. And I still haven't finished my vest, because my hands hurt too much for handsewing. Life, ain't it grand. *hugs Julia* I'm also hoping that our old Windows XP PC holds out for a couple more months, until after the semesters end, to minimize the impact on the girls. Ditto our very old printer. Also that might give us time to save up a bit, unless something else around here has to be replaced or repaired suddenly, perish the thought.

*waves*
I finished the vest last night, and put away everything, too. So there, life.
Today I'll try on the whole ensemble and see if it wants anything else, maybe.

At forty I dreamed of retiring so I'd have time to sew. Now I have the time, but can only sew for an hour or two before my back drives me onto the couch again.

#wavey# I am epic not busy, having absolutely nothing to do except wait for other people to make decisions and do like they said they would, and quite a lot bored except for thinking about Captain America: The Winter Soldier. (Which was awesome.) On the weekend I'm going to a Torchwood convention though, so that should be more interesting. Did y'all hear about the gigantimous security hole in the https ? staff.tumblr.com/post/82113034874/urgent-security-update tumblr recommends changing all your passwords everywhere ever, but Dreamwidth points out you should also be sure the place has already fixed the hole. #grouphug#
