40!!!!!!
O MY GOD...I'M 40 
How awful is that???
I'm off out in a little while to buy myself a tartan shopping trolley so I can ram it into the back of peoples ankles & then point my stick at them telling them to get out of the way!
I shall be cantankerous & rude & keep making comments about 'the youth of today' & there being 'no respect these days'
I may even pop to the hairdressers & have a shampoo & set along with a nice blue rinse
If it rains I shall open my umbrella & poke everyones eyes out!
I shall be trying my best, however, not to smell of wee all the time!
Will anyone notice the change in me?

Re: 40!!!!!!
I think you are getting old before your time.
I have not got a shopping trolley, walking stick or blue rinse and I am 71.
As for the latter why not try femfresh

Re: 40!!!!!!
Well my hubby is 50 next week, which is fine except we have been told we need to get our ITA in before then or we don't have enough points, so we have had a total of 8 days to get everything, medicals, police checks, paperwork, etc, etc!!!!
We are going off to Egypt for his birthday on Saturday for a week so ITA has to go tomorrow and now the NZQA website is not working properly aaahhhh!! Panic or what! Also we need to take our passports with us so have had to get copies, etc!
Never mind it is nearly done and NZ IMM have said as long as we get the form and fees (no surprise) we can send other stuff ASAP.
Have a great birthday though, best wishes, Lindsay x

Re: 40!!!!!!
You will It's brilliant being in your 40s.
You can actually start showing your eccentricity without people looking at you as if you should be old enough to know better.
You can be fit and your body seems to belong to you - in a way it didn't when it was far more important to you.
You've moved past an awful lot of 'stuff' and the future seems full of possibilities.
And loads more that you'll find out along the way
Aw **** it - my next BIG one will be 50 and I'll find something good about that too - if I search hard enough
