Twenty Four

Let's face it, I honestly am not that into my birthdays and am usually
not excited about them. I could blame it on age or maturity, but it's
just like any other day of the week.

While I love to get dressed up and go out, I am the type of person who
gets excited when others do. I know that sounds weird. Funny thing is,
I get excited for other peoples birthdays. As it's a reason to come up with
themes for gifts and making cards. I love doing things for others as it gets
 my mind off of what I am suppose to be doing, but I've come to realize that
I sometimes forget about myself. I get too caught up about being 'busy'
with work and what not, that I don't do anything for myself. Okay, yes
I do occasionally go shopping but that is for necessities (I haven't been
in weeks!) or treat myself with desserts (bad idea, don't do it!). I am a
 huge saver and won't buy myself a lot but I am more than willing to
spend it on making others happy. But I should be putting myself in the
spotlight and celebrating my accomplishments whether they be birthday
 related or a new job. So hopefully this year will be different!

If I did do something special, glitter and sequins would definitely be the
focus point! Oh let's not forget the sparklers!
