Its official! I'm now past 40. Yep the big four one.....dramatic sigh. I shouldn't feel any worse about it than 40 but I swear I woke up this morning and could hear the sucking sound from age fifty. I even caught myself looking at caftans in the beach wear section at a local shop. What happened to just a cute over sized tshirt? or a wrap? Oh no, I was actually holding up a caftan and thinking" this is cute!" Some one shoot me now! Next thing you know it will be false eyelashes and crepey brown buzooms, poking out of some kind of blouse with huge floral print. Not to mention the oversized jewelry and shiny blue eye shadow........oh the pain of ageing. It truly ain't for sissy!
Despite the drama of it all, we did manage to have a fabulous time! In our daytime exploration (sans map) of the area we stumbled across Sneeds Ferry with its infamous Christmas shop. Then dinner in downtown Wilmington at an awesome french restaurant, the Caprice Bistro. All in all not bad for an old lady and her old man. Next weekend we plan on picking out side by side burial plots. Maybe try on a shroud or two...one has to be prepared at our ages.
