It's My ***30th*** Birthday!

Just thought I'd toss up this post since it's after midnight ... I have to be up at like 5am so I should be in bed, and I'm about to, BUT since I'm up - I hereby give you all permission to celebrate with me =)  In fact, I started celebrating today with homemade ice cream cake that a co-worker made me:
I'm going back & forth between being OK & being freaked out about being 30, but I'm determined to put a positive face on it, so bring on the gifts & spoiling.  Tomorrow ... uh, later today ... is the 25th anniversary celebration at work - I will be enjoying it like it's my party LOL.  Since I have the blog I am one of the photographers for the event & I also think that will be fun.
Later on ... well, we'll just see what develops =)  What did you do for your last birthday?
Then I will be off Friday & Monday & Tuesday.  I plan to sleep & to get caught up with everything I possibly can - and everything else I'm sad to say is going to get chucked.  If I can't get on top of it with 3 full extra days off my job, I'm never going to get on top of it.  I need a clean slate, whether that slate is carefully polished clean or side-swept with an extended arm ;)
I wore Nubar Moon Shadow the other day, so I have pics of that to edit ... and pics too of the worst break I ever had that I suffered wearing it.  I also recently did my first collaboration on YouTube & that will be going up Friday, so stay tuned!  Thanks for reading.

    This is a good age, believe me ;) I got a coffee mug with a writing inside: "30 years. You are beginning a new chapter in your life. You are a grown-up but still so young. You know who you are and that makes you attractive. You are in your prime and you are working for a good and safe future". Happy Birthday Colette!

    Happy Birthday Colette, all the way from Australia!
    I just turned 30 yesterday (7/13) and I was freaking out too but today, I was like, oh it's just another day... It seems like it's an old age as you approach it but if you feel young at heart, it doesn't matter. I hope you got everything you wished for today and had a fantastic time!
    Keep up the fantastic work on the blog, you are super inspiring to me!

    Hi, Happy birthday Colette. I think I know what you mean, I will be 30 next year. But hey, a girl is not older than the guy she has a relationship with, right? :P My bf is 22 and noone can make me happier.
    Anyway, all the best wishes for you.
    Many hugs
