4.5K On My Birthday!
That kind of rhymes! :)
So yeah - today is my birthday! 29 big ones! (which is getting periously close to the big 3-0).
And how did I celebrate you might ask? Well, I woke up at 4:45 am to go to the pool for a big (for me) 4500 yd swim! With a main set of 6x600 I was rather intimidated! But tired as I was those last few repeats I was happy to nail the workout just as I wanted!
Then I went to work. Then I went to the YMCA to lift. Then I came home and did some laundry. Fun birthday huh?! :)
Actually, all the celebrating went on over the past 2 days, first with my family on Sunday and then with O's family on Monday. AND my co-worker (somehow remembering it was my birthday today) made brownies for me! AND I got a card in the mail from my best friend today with a gift certificate for a massage (boy, does she know me or does she know me? :). AND my hubby, as always, has made my day very special. He left the house before I got back from the pool (and I left for the pool before he was awake!) so I arrived home from the pool to see I had a voice message on my cell. Of course it was none other than O crooning happy birthday! :)
And so it goes. Another year older and hopefully wiser. Here's to making my 29th year better than ever!

Happy Birthday, Beth! Have a great 30th year of your life! (You may not be turning 30 until next year, but this is your 30th year, which should ease the transition.) I'm sure you'll make the best of it!
