It used to be, yet here I sit with no curly perm, pull-on pants or round lady-glasses. But I still look much older that I did ten short years ago. Sigh.
I turn 40 this year too and you nailed my vision of what it has looked like to me throughout the years. I'm hoping my visions keep changing for 50 too!
40 was SO two years ago (for me, anyway). But you know what? When we were young, 40 really WAS like that! Now, 40 is when we catch our stride. We have the confidence we need to feel good about ourselves. And then our body betrays us.
I want to live in J. Lo's world where someone is photoshopping me every moment of the day. No, really. I do.
I'm laughing and laughing and laughing at this post.
ReplyDeleteAre we twins separated at birth?
I think we could be. Depends on if you also think that you should look like Jennifer Lopez.
DeleteHeh heh. So true. Seems that ancient age of 40 ain't so ancient...

Delete40 is the new 30!
ReplyDeleteAlso, Madonna makes 50 look young. :)
That is absolutely right. Thank goodness for Madonna! Oh, I can't believe I just said that. :)

ReplyDeleteMe too! The image of me when I was 30 and my mom when she was 50? That was a distinct moment when as I got older, she looked younger to me.
DeleteWait until you see 44 - it's scary. Really scary. Happy Birthday!
ReplyDeleteI see my friends who are 45, 50 - and I hope I look as good as they do. Sadly, I'm afraid that isn't in the cards for me.
DeleteSo funny! I'm 42 and I love it. But I totally agree - I thought 40 was ancient when I went to my dad's 40th birthday party!
ReplyDeleteI have yet to love being in my forties. I am still in shock.
DeleteWhen my uncle turned 40, he received a card that said "40 isn't old if you're a tree." At the time I thought that was hilarious.
Now, not so much.
I think you are a great looking 40! Even better than JLo.
ReplyDeleteYou are my favorite. :)
DeleteThank you!!
Ha! Yep. I used to think 40 was ancient. A year and a half to go for me...
ReplyDeleteI still think 40 is ancient! Someday soon I hope that will change. Enjoy the rest of your thirties.
DeleteLove it, too funny!
ReplyDeleteI'm 41 and I would not want to be a day younger. But those pictures? You nailed it!
I know exactly what you mean about not wanting to be a day younger. But appearing to be ten years younger? Absolutely.
DeleteYour hair totally rocks in that first shot.
ReplyDeleteAnd you look amazing for 40! I hope I look that good in *cough* less than 2 years *cough*!
Thanks for the compliment about my hair when I was eight. Maybe I will attempt to bring back that look.
DeleteAnd thanks too for the other compliment! I'm blushing a little. :)
You will rock 40!
I envy your hair! I wish my hair is that pretty :D You are looking beautiful :D
ReplyDeleteOh, thank you! You are so sweet! *smiling*

I do, too. I think that instant photoshop should be a valid birthday gift after 40. Maybe even a mandatory one.

ReplyDeleteThis is so good. I can get off the internet now.
ReplyDeleteHa! And maybe I should. :)
DeleteThanks.
ummmm hilarious! I feel the same way too. You look fantastic. I'm forty-three when you get there let me know what that looks like!
ReplyDeleteThanks~! I hope 40 to 43 is a better transition for me than the 30 to 40 one. Yeesh.
