I will just say that if you asked me 10 years ago where I would be at age 30 I would NOT have said single and living a few hours away from my family. I always thought I would settle close, but not too close to home. I would have thought I would have been married with a couple babies by now. It seems that life had different plans for me.
I will say the fact that I had my Bachelor's degree at 22, Master's at 28 and I became a homeowner at 23 is still pretty exciting! Everything I have done in life I have done on my own, so that gives me some degree of accomplishment. I am successful when it comes in my education and where I have gotten myself financially. I really hope that this next 10 year chapter in my life brings me all that is missing- a life partner and a family! Only God knows and only time will tell!
On a lighter and happier note, I went North for my birthday weekend (last weekend) and it was wonderful. I arrived to my party on Friday night. It was my last birthday party at "home" so that was pretty bitter sweet. I will talk more about that in an upcoming post. We had my favorite dinner and mom and Katie made me a Kit Kat cake that I found on Pinterest and have wanted for the last two years.

I got a fully magnetic clipboard for my classroom, decor for my new guestroom I am designing, clothes (lots of them!!), some Fridge Binz - I am in the process of a total kitchen reorganization project, beautiful fresh flowers and a Chromecast, so that I can watch Netflix (and Hulu, YouTube, etc.) from my tv vs. my iPhone or iPad. It was just a quick visit, but surely a good one!

And, the countdown to my 30's begins . . .

Going to give you an older women's perspective on turning 30. I loved turning 30. I thought people started taking my more serious. And what I have found out is each decade has even been better then the last. I'm absolutely loving my 50's! Don't give up on having kids. I think being in the 30's will make you a better parent. Had my first at 31 and my last at 37. They have kept me young and made me laugh! All I can say is embrace your age. They all are pretty good!
