Negative Six

Posted March 26th, 2010 by KellBell

Well here we are again. Another year has come and gone and I am officially one year older; or as I like to say I am now -6 yrs old. Seeing as I feel like I am (and often act) like I am 30, and since I am officially now 36, I figure that I am -6 yrs old so that I am really actually just 30 yrs old. Makes perfect sense, right?

OK, it’s true. Despite what I used to say…I REFUSE to grow old gracefully. Screw that crap…seriously. I am going to fight it tooth and nail and stay as young as I can for as long as I can. I mean, let’s not kid ourselves. It’s not like I don’t take care of my responsibilities because I do, but I think I just refuse to be defined by a number. For some reason people hear 36 and they think I am this older domesticated person. Ha! Don’t make me laugh. While it’s true that I have become a bit more domesticated with the newly found love of cooking and of course taking care of Jeremy, I am far more active now than I was back then. I may be a few pounds heavier now, but I can definitely say that I am in far better all around health.

So as I turn 36 today I am embracing the fact that we can’t stop ourselves from aging according to a calendar, but that we are as young as we believe we are.

Happy birthday to me!
