I am getting old (at least I feel like it!)
Got my eyes examined a few weeks back. Got new contacts. Found out I need reading glasses in addition to the contacts! I guess you can call me “EIGHT Eyes!” Also, about a week ago, I was walking to the bowling alley with my husband, and stepped on a big, fat rusty nail! Got a tetanus shot and antibiotics the next day, but I’m still limping around like an old lady! I’m only 39! Give me a break!
I’m bald.
I wore my hair natural for 5 years. Then, in a few moments of boredom, I relaxed it in January. Did it again in March. Finally realized that there was a reason I didn’t relax any more (well, more than one), and decided to go back to natural. I warned Mr. Day that he might come home one day and find that I had cut all the relaxer out of my hair. That day came yesterday. I have about an inch of hair now. Couldn’t take it anymore! However, you probably won’t see it until I’ve got at least 6 inches or more. Until then, I will continue to let Mr. Day pick out the wig for the month!
This weekend was boy central.
Not only was I surrounded with the normal males, but at various times, Mr. Day’s cousin and two nephews came to visit. Of course, this was the weekend when my momma, the R.N., decreed that because of my jacked up foot, I had to stay off of it. I had NO ESCAPE! It’s a whole different experience when they all get together! Thank God I like football.
Summer won’t go away.
I love fall and spring. I could do without the other two seasons – especially summer. I hate to be hot. I hate humidity. And this summer was a beast. However, it’s been cooler for the past week. So I thought I was in the clear. But no. Today and the next three days will be 90 degrees! Thankfully, I have a place to escape to in the next few evenings. I’m sick of being hot!
MrsDay is a wife, mom, stepmom, daughter, sister, auntie and friend. Writing allows her to let off steam so that nobody around her gets maimed or killed, and it's great for meeting all kinds of people online. She enjoys reading, singing, photography, and spending all her free time with Mr. Day.

Sounds like you've been very busy and a lot of masculinity has been around you. You need to hang with the girls.
I know what you mean on age, except the hair, I was cursed with extremely thick hair that tends to give daily headaches. I'm considering chopping it and donating it, still need to find a place that won't charge an arm and a leg though. As for age, yesterday I came into the house and collapsed at the door. I tried believing I'd stepped in a puddle but reality is there hasn't been any water, I just slipped and fell. Hubby says the floor is slippery so going with that, I would hate to think I've gotten old enough to lose my legs like that. I've had knee trouble in the past so a bit concerned. Man I don't want to get old. (I just wish I'd get over this cold completely, please no more humidity)
My recent post I Failed My Test!
I was supposed to hang with the girls last weekend, but due to that old stupid nail, I had to stay home and off of my foot the whole time. I WISH I had thick hair…but alas, NO. Be careful! No more slips and falls…..and yes….getting old SUCKS!
