Gabby Turns the Big 3-0

October 21, 2008 · 2 Comments

My best friend since the sixth grade is 30 today! I’m not exactly sure when it happened, but it seems like we’re all grown up or something now. Maybe it should have hit me when my close friends started getting married (and some having BABIES!), but this kind of cements it for me…my twenties are quickly coming to an end.

I’m not exactly sure how Gabs feels about turning 30…I’m not exactly freaking out about it…yet. It is nine+ months away, but it is looming. The hardest birthday I’ve had so far was 22. For some reason, I felt so old and had nothing look really look forward to any more – especially after the long wait to turn 21. My friend actually gave me a subscription to Redbook for my 22nd…it caused me to burst into tears.

But, I think if you surround yourself with family and good friends and focus on what makes you happy, you’re off to a great start towards happiness…and all of the other stuff will seem incidental.

Happy 30th Birthday, Gabby!!!
