Happy birthday!!

Tillyscoutsmum · 12/03/2012 19:16

Happy Birthday Smile.

I remember being quite depressed about turning 30 but that was because my life wasn't going in the direction I had hoped/planned at that time.

ABigGirlDoneItAndRanAway · 12/03/2012 19:16

Depends on your circumstances really, I'm 30 later this year and I'm in a good place in my life with my DH, DD and nice home so meh to it really, it's just another number nothing to get het up about.

Happy Birthday Wine

StuckUpTheFezziwigTree · 12/03/2012 19:18

Oh sorry - happy birthday!!! Grin

lesley33 · 12/03/2012 19:19

Truthfully, I wasn't happy at turning 30. But truthfully, I was happier in my 30's than my 20's.

JustHecate · 12/03/2012 19:19

30?

Bog off with your 30.

I'm hurtling towards forty.

At least you don't have to tie your tits round your waist if you have to run for a bus yet lest they fly up into your face and knock you cold.

Grin Grin

Seriously though - happy birthday!

AntsMarching · 12/03/2012 19:20

I wasn't keen to turn 30, but so far my 30s have been much better than my 20s. I agree with above poster who said it depends on how happy you are with your life at the time.

Hope you have a great birthday! Wine

GavisconJunkie · 12/03/2012 19:23

YABVU! - I vaguely remember 30. It was ok, 31 on the other hand is rubbish. It's nothing, it's in your 30s. It's 'next big birthday is 40' territory. It's depressing. Enjoy 30 :o

When magazines do those 'which skin routine would suit you' spreads I still look at the wrong bit :(

Piccalilli2 · 12/03/2012 19:24

I was newly pregnant on my 30th which made the event rather annoying but the experience less so - kind of felt like I was at an appropriate and happy time in my life and had 'achieved' what I wanted to. 40 is now approaching fast and that's a veerrry different matter

Bunbaker · 12/03/2012 19:25

Happy birthday. If you feel old at 30 you will be old for approximately 56 years since the average life expectancy is now 86 Smile

It's just anothe number, suck it up.

FriskyMare · 12/03/2012 19:26

Wait til your toppling over the edge of the mid 40's.
Loved my 30's
46 in a few months :(

ArielNonBio · 12/03/2012 19:26

Thirty? EnvyEnvyEnvy Don't look for sympathy here, my love Grin

lesley33 · 12/03/2012 19:30

I'm 47, hurtling towards 50!

FriskyMare · 12/03/2012 19:31

Aaargh - i've just realised I'm nearly old enough to be your mother op.
Seriously depressed now :( :( :o

lesley33 · 12/03/2012 19:33

I am old enough Sad

FriskyMare · 12/03/2012 19:42

Frisky - Have you seen my thread then Grin

AlbertoFrog · 12/03/2012 19:47

Loved being in my 30s and so far 40 is good too.

Happy Birthday Blurry29 (will you have to namechange now?) Grin

Blurry29 · 12/03/2012 21:48

Never even thought about a name change... Will get thinking cap on.

In answer to posts... Very very happy in my life Grin wonderful family and amazing friends.

It's kinda creeped up on me that's all... However DH creeping towards 40 so I've always got some age related banter to fall back on.

Thanks for your messages. Hope everyone is well Wink
