37

[Brigitte]

Y'know, I turned 37 in January and had some of the same things go through my head. I have the house and family and all the trappings of such and am happy with it all, but 37 sounds oh-so-much closer to 40 than 36 did. I live a good life and don't really want for anything, so it wasn't a sense of not having accomplished what I thought I would. Just a nearness to another decade that I really thought was further away.
