When I wasn't looking, I have a family, great husband a couple of kids and me....nearing my 40's ( who are we kidding, next year). So I sit here and wonder- should I start to cry or should I embrace it? I say- embrace! As someone who has had a life straight out of " My Big Fat Greek Wedding," I realize that I am lucky. Life deals you a certain hand- you can either deal with the cards that you got- or fight like hell to discard and grab some new ones. I had to discard SEVERAL cards before I got what I liked. Now, I have a 'child' going in to high school, a four year old who THINKS he's going into high school- and a pretty hot husband. I'd say I'm doing ok. Do I wish I had a Honda Odessey in my driveway (because in this house it's buy ford- or go home), I sure do! And a master bathroom of my own? YUP! But don't we all wish for something a bit more? In the grand scheme of things- I HAVE everything that I want. As far as my 40's are concerned...bring it! You won't ever see a tear out of me!

Seems like you are trying to convince yourself that 40 will be fun... just suck it up, you're old.
And Kurt says your husband IS hot - "hey gurl!"
I didn't know you had a car crush, we'll have to bring it down and park it in your driveway more so you can pretend :)
