    You're still a puppy dog! Enjoy it!

    I was 34 when I started getting my life in order. Over 5 years later, I'm still playing catch-up! But...betterlate than never.

    Appreciate what you have, try not to take a single day for granted, treat others how you wish to be treated and life will be good to you. (I was a slow learner, but I live this way now )

    Keep doing what you're doing, you're obviously doing something right!

    I know, haha! I am very young still. I am trying to enjoy it as much as I can!

    Thanks! That's how I try to live. I'd like to say that is how I live, but it's much more difficult said than done. But whatever it is I'm doing, I'll try to keep at it. Sometimes it feels like I'm just in the right place at the right time, but sometimes I think that's all it takes.

    very good advice! w/ their great age comes great wisdom. we sound all listen and be so sage.




    also HBD! it's always a good time to celebrate even on a Tuesday night. the good thing i've always found about weekday birthdates is that you you can have two events - a weekend blowout and the actual weekday birthday bash. just have fun, be safe!

    i also found out that July 31st are also some neat holidays that can/should also be celebrated. check it out! https://www.checkiday.com/7/31/2017

    Very good advice, indeed! I'm taking all of it to heart, and will follow as much of it as I can, as should everyone, I think!

    Oh my, my husband is going to enjoy a few of those holidays more than others.

    That is true about weekday birthdays! We have spur-of-the-moment-planned on going to a casino this weekend, since I've never been to one. And then Tuesday can be much more chill, haha!

I got 1999, and my coworkers chimed in saying things like they graduated college, went on trips, that kind of thing. And I said, "I was in first grade...." They all groaned, lol!!
    Did this with co-workers yesterday actually. I pulled 1998...kind of akward to say "I wasn't even born yet" LOL.

    "OLD"??? Pretty sure I have clothes in my closet that are older than you... But as long we're doling out sage advice, take good care of your health...it's
    hard to enjoy anything else without that.

    Doing what you love in life keeps you young, motivated & going strong, whether it's music, animals, sports or whatever. While I'd love to trade ages with you,
    I also love that I can run circles around most of my peers, & around many far younger as well. In fact, it's fun to pass for much younger. Just the opposite of
    when you're young & can't wait to be "grown up".

    Life is never all "up", there's always "up" & "down" times, so don't let the bumps in the road get you down...focus on all the good stuff you have & look forward.
    Life isn't "fair" either...others will always have things you'd wish for, but you don't realize what negatives they also cope with.

    And for sure stay out of debt! I use credit all the time, but I NEVER pay interest...you want good credit for if/when you really need it, but it's tragic to realize all
    the money you wasted if you paid interest.

    So, Happy (upcoming) Birthday!

    Turned 18 in April I still feel like a child compared to everyone else, though.

    TBH I didn't feel like an adult until I moved out of my parents' place. Adulting takes so much money lol.
