Thoughts on 40
What's so bad about being forty? Aside from a huge increase in grey hair and the need to apply neck firming cream, it doesn't seem so awful to me. But then I am only a week or so into my fortieth year. One of the best things about turning 40 is that people shower you with gifts. 40 being a significant number means that the pressies are fantastic! One beautiful gift that I will treasure always was a plum coloured Ted Baker bag with copper coloured accents. I don't really have the lifestyle to go with such a beautiful bag but there's still time! They say life begins and all that. To prove I'm still youngish I also got a Brits CD full of young people music. I have already irritated the family by over-playing Justin Bieber. I also got a beautiful silver honey pot, an equally beautiful 3 tier cake plate, some books and a Happy Valley DVD (we missed it first time around and everyone has been raving about it). All in all, a very good haul! Believe me
