first and last days...

Today was my very FIRST day at my brand spankin' new job!! I will just tell you right now that I loved it and I think I will have a lot of fun working there.

Ok now that that is out of the way...

I am turning 26 in one week. Easter Sunday I will be one year older and I have to tell you, I am really dreading it this year. There is something about turning 26 that just really bums me out. I am well on my way to my late 20's and that just sounds so.... well, old. Ugh. I know, I know, it's really not that old, but I got to tell you, it feels ancient. I thought by this age I would be married and have a kid or two, but right now I couldn't be any further from that destination. Funny how life doesn't always turn out the way you thought it would.

So today begins the last days of being 25. *sigh*

Now I am not writing this to have anyone feel sorry for me. Heck, I don't feel sorry for myself so why should you?! I just thought maybe someone could explain to me, why a day that I normally LOVE to celebrate, I don't even look forward to this year? How can I make turning the big two-six easier on and more enjoyable for myself? (Or how I can just avoid getting older all together. *wishful thinking*)

Any suggestions are more than welcome...

P.S. I'm not going to lie, I don't think having my birthday fall on Easter and General Conference weekend really helps my situation.

You made me laugh. I went to Europe about the 25-26 year time. It's an excellent idea!

I feel like 25 is too old! I wish I could stay 23 forever. I think you should totally go on a trip...or skydiving. Two things you won't really do once you get married and have kids.
