My God I’m 27!


As you may have guessed from my Botox blog I may have an issue with getting older. Well I have always had an issue with age full stop! And as I have turned 27 today it made me stop and have a think about getting older. When I was younger I always wanted to be older and I hated that my high school boyfriend was older than me by a full 6 months and now I would like to be younger by a full 6 years. Well not a whole 6 years maybe just 2.

When I was 25 I could deal with that and I decided that this was a good age the half way point to 30 ok I would like to stop now! Apparently it doesn’t work that way. Damn you father time moving that clock forward! But I looked at myself naked in the mirror this morning to see if things had changed. Silly I know I really don’t take much time to look at myself in the mirror sure I do when I’m shoving make up on my face or checking what I’m wearing looks ok. But I decided that I would take a good hard look and not in any kind of dirty way. And I came to a few conclusions firstly I look much better now that I did 3 years ago and that’s a lot of gym work and good food. My butt hasn’t dropped to the floor (just yet) it is actually smaller. My tummy is much flatter and also has some definition to it, thanks Amanda for that one. Legs are leaner and more tone, so I have to say I haven’t aged so bad.

So apart from the body I had a think about how else I have changed in the last few years. Well I think I’m a lot more calm than I was a few years back, I’m learning not to sweat the small stuff. I am also learning to be a lot more accepting of people in the whole. I use to be a like this person drives me crazy, but now I am more excepting of people and everything that comes with them. I don’t not like anyone anymore I just accept people as they are and there rubbish it’s not worth not liking people.

I also remember when I was younger that I thought by 27 I would be married and have one child and pregnant with my second?????? Man I am so not ready for children. My friends who are my age with children I think are amazing who have children I have realised I am just not ready for them yet. My fiancé on the other hand is.

So after my reflection on my birthday maybe 27 isn’t so bad but ask me next year when I am half way to 30!
