This seemed appropriate...

Happy Birthday to me! Wow! I'm 30 today. That's 3-0. How can that be? I feel like I was just 17 or 22 or something doesn't start with the number 3. Time flies by and it seems it's only getting faster.


I thought of this song last nite by Tim McGraw entitled, "My Next 30 Years," and it just seemed appropriate since it's a reflection on his first 30 years.


I think I’ll take a moment, celebrate my age
The ending of an era and the turning of a page
Now it’s time to focus in on where I go from here
Lord have mercy on my next thirty years


Hey my next thirty years I’m gonna have some fun
Try to forget about all the crazy things I’ve done
Maybe now I’ve conquered all my adolescent fears
And I’ll do it better in my next thirty years


My next thirty years I’m gonna settle all the scores
Cry a little less, laugh a little more
Find a world of happiness without the hate and fear
Figure out just what I’m doing here

In my next thirty years

Oh my next thirty years, I’m gonna watch my weight
Eat a few more salads and not stay up so late
Drink a little lemonade and not so many beers
Maybe I’ll remember my next thirty years


My next thirty years will be the best years of my life
Raise a little family and hang out with my wife (er...husband) :)
Spend precious moments with the ones that I hold dear
Make up for lost time here,
In my next thirty years

I LOVE IT!!! How can it be... that is what I am thinking too!! How time goes and things change!! I sort of get sad, when I think how fast it has went. It seems the good ole days weren't that long ago!! Hey, you remember this one..."You just call out my name and you know wherever I am...!" I heard that the other day on The View I think it was!!
Anyway, I love your blog! Here is to today and the next 30 years! LOVE YA JAME!!!
