    I don't have much of my 30s left just a cple years and I wonder will that effect me in anyway. 30s have been the best times so far and I'll go out rocking them I anticipate.

    I too only have a couple of years left, and I agree, 30s have been great! I hope the 40s are just as good - I imagine they will be, because I will make the most of it. ;)
    We can do it. I think my mindset it a lot better. I am more thankful and more challenging of myself. I do give into my temptations that make me happy more often than before and I suspect that I will in the future as well.

    I found that as I get older, the more I stick up for myself and don't let people walk all over me. I also do what puts a smile on my face. 26 was the worst birthday for me - I started saying I was in my late 20s and that was depressing. 30th Birthday was great, because I had friends make it great - the grim reaper showed up and everything. When people ask my age now, I have to think about it because I am so much more comfortable with who I am. It also helps that I still get carded to buy alcohol (sometimes).

    Sounds wonderful. I forget my age all the time.....have to do the year count on it well because it's not important anymore. Aging is a privilege denied to many anyway and I'm thankful I get new days.

    Oh I missed lots on here. What can I say I've been busy. I hope everyone is well and I can honestly say that turning 30 wasn't too bad. But this year as I'm about to turn 32 it has been harder. But life has changed a lot in the last 2 years.

    Lying about my age is easier now that I have trouble remembering what it is!

    Lol I have the same problem! Hahaha

    I had a Fun Dip a while back. It was just as tasty (and sugary) as I remember. We'd always buy them from the concession stand (at the pool, ball games, etc.) And Laffy Taffy! Banana is my favorite.

    I bought some Razzles from Amazon. Hard & gross. Not what I remember. Glad the Fun Dip was good-I shoulda gone with that.

    The consession stands. That reminds me of eating at the concession stand for lunch in high school. My DAILY lunch, you ask?
    A yellow bag of overpriced plain chips, a Fruitopia, & a fruit snack package. Explains why I am on MFP in my 30s hahaha

    Oh Fruitopia....
    My daily lunch in 7th grade consisted of two pizza sticks, one of those giant soft cookies, and either a Fruitopia or a can of minute maid fruit punch :D

    Elementary school was mostly hot lunch, middle school some hot lunches, some packed lunches, high school occasional packed lunch, but mostly concession line food. Pizza, nachos, chips, giant Fudge Rounds ... or crap from the vending machines (pop, candy).

    Ooh my gosh fruitopia and a small bag of cheetoes. That was all I ate for lunch most of hight school. And I wondered why I got heavy.

    Anyways. I hope everyone is well. I got carded today. So I'm calling that a win.

    Hahaha! Awesome! Yeah, you don't look in your 30s.
    In my late 20s I got carded at a Kmart while buying the T2 movie (for my ex). There are so many weird things about that sentence.

    But I am starting to wish I'd get carded more. Perhaps it's my forehead wrinkle that gives away my (ahem) ....wisdom....

    I have a slight '11' between my eyes. It's from years of needing glasses but not getting glasses so I squint, squint, squinted for a lonnng time. Pfft!

    I'm always surprised when it happens. I attribute it to my makeup addiction.
