26


It was a great Friday to have a birthday and now I am officially in my mid-twenties. Feeling a little sad to have left the earlies but looking forward with bright eyes and smiles. What will 26 bring? It started pretty well with a wonderful offer from a publishing company which means I'm back in the journalism/writing seat professionally. A cosy dressing gown, some perfume, tea and books plus a few glorious gatherings with family and friends and I think I can be sure, that this year, once again, I'm a lucky girl. You can still be a girl at 26, can't you?

I also love the fact that I can eat as much chocolate as I like this weekend because it's my birthday and Easter. No-one can suggest I've eaten too much because I am honouring two celebrations.

  3. Happy birthday Jodi. You can still be a girl no matter how old you are. I'm still a girl at 40, and will be until I start feeling "old"!
