Yep, Celebrated my 42nd year of life on October 26th this month. Wow, it is hard to beleive that 21 years ago on this day, I gave birth to my first son, Chad. You got it! He turned 21 on the same day. I n Gainsville, Florida. Perfect memories.
We did noth'in all day, except me and a baseball friend went to "Walmart" to replenish the concession stand. (fun huh?) I thought That i'd get the kids a cake for my birthday. They got me some well needed pajamas and a card. With me being a diabetic now, it makes it hard not to touch those sweets. Gotta get a little taste though! I guess it took 3 days but yesterday I woke up in bad shape. My blood sugar was "sky high". While trying to stir my coffee, I darn near fell over I was so dizzy. And on top of that, I think the night before I may have missed my Cholesterol pill. That sure didn't help the situation. Today I'm a bit light-headed, but nothing like yesterdays tragety! I recon it all comes with the age. These 40's have been the pits man!
I remember when Chad was younger, we were talking one day about how old I would be when he turned 21. I didn't think much about it then, I was liv'in my life one day at a time, having a drink when I wanted, doing what I wanted, when I wanted. But now, he's at the drinking age, and I'm at the age of no return! I haven't had a drink in almost 3 years. If I did, boy would I ever pay for it. My body took a big dump at the age of 39. Hello 40's!!
Yes, we are both "Halloweeny babies"!!!
