Full Version: I don't feel 40

Hey friends. One of my really good friends Johnathan, came by my shop this morning and dropped off a little present that he thought I might be in need of very soon. It appears as though I'm turning 40 today. Hmm.



Well, so far my eye sight is still spot on. The cane? That one is till up in the air. I'm gonna try an hold off needing that as long as possible too. But thinking about age and what we accomplish during our life time did remind me of a commercial I recently saw. I assume the statement is meant to be funny, and I thought it was, but I also sit and think about it often and what it means to me and what things have I yet to accomplish. The comment? "It's never too late to start beefing up your obituary." Some of you have heard of my dream to train for and climb Mt. Whitney as my grandparents did. Well, I guess I better get started and hopefully you'll join me in getting healthier, setting goals and the like. Have a wonderful day!

Well I had wanted to start my training a couple months ago but life got in the way. I need to start saying no to more things so that I can focus on my well being a little, which is really against my nature, for those that really know me. So Saturday I'm shooting a wedding, Sunday I have 3 back to back shoots and I plan on biking all next week more than just my typical to my sons school, then to work and back. I have never known a day in my life without asthma so things have to always take a different route with me and exercise. I just wish I had the body I had when I finished doing the Body For Life competition I did 8 years ago. Darn. 17.gif No I won't be showing you those before and after pics.

Happy Birthday, Mark! It was just after turning 40 when I noticed that small print was a little more difficult to read, so keep those glasses within reach! As I've pushed through the 40s (I'm 48), I'm certainly wiser, but I really don't feel older. I still feel like I'm in fighting condition! boxing.gif

Happy Birthday!!
