Getting OLD 😩 The good & the Bad || Thoughtful Daily Post

You can't help getting older, but you don't have to get old. - George Burns

I just wanna live but not turn on older LOL, here is the thing I’m not ashamed of my age I’m actually proud I’m the age I am and have all the things I have in my life, yet here I am thinking omg another bday I'm so old!

I hate having birthdays but I'm happy I continue to have them cause well you know the only way not to have them is if you die 😬. Let’s start talking about the bad to you know do the catharsis part of this post…

The Bad

• Your body is making you feel pain in places you didn’t know existed before.
• You get more wrinkles, I mean there are women who said they are proud and love they have them, and let me tell you those are LIES nobody likes to have wrinkles! This doesn't mean I will be paying for botox (cause I don’t have the money LOL) but to be honest they are a little annoying something maybe I will get pass in the future.
• You can still get acne, like I had acne back when I was a teenager and well into my early 20s but then I started on the pill and said good bye to acne, now I'm old enough that I even had a child and decided to get sterilize so I don’t need more pills but well acne never forgets and has come back with a vengeance like you are older now less make you look even uglier.
• People start calling you mam, mrs, etc… like no more miss you are old and have to deal with it.
• You can not longer stay up all night and then pretend to sleep just 2 hours in the morning or will be like me today feeling like you are going to die. (and nope I didn’t stay up in a party I was working).

Now that we got the bad out of the way let’s do…

The Good

• You eat cake, this can be done every day of the year but the good thing about it being your bday is you can eat it all yourself and not sharing with anyone and people cant say anything to you. I am lucky enough my boyfriend got me a chocolate cake, fill with chocolate buttercream, cover with Chantilly and topped with Oreo and ganache of chocolate I mean it was my dream come true.

I love chocolate this is like not a joke I can eat it everyday all day so to get a chocolate cake is a most in every birthday but the good thing about getting old is you are done trial and error and found the best ones in the city by now, there was not a question if this cake was going to be good.

• You stop worrying about what other people think like do I have wrinkles and acne, so what? who is going to care, people are probably going to talk but unless they are willing to pay the Botox or creams fro my face they can F$%@ off.

• You start to embrace being call MRS like you don't even care anymore cause you have heard it long enough now that you just think well I'm old I cant do anything about it LMAO.

• You understand better the limits of your body, and actually start doing schedules to have better sleep and treat it better, cause you now see how your body is not getting any younger and it needs this.

• I get to be pampered and treated like a queen and also demand I don’t do dishes or anything else for the day. My boyfriend cooked me my favorite dish he makes a Chicken Cesar Salad.

• To be honest the older I get the more I know how to demand this stuff, cause when is his bday I treat him like a king (to be honest I do this everyday doesn't matter if is his bday or not) i got better at knowing how to communicate stuff before I just didn't know how to express, I feel like we have a so much better relationship now, I mean i still want to kill him from time to time but to be honest, I feel more mature and act out more talking and less on the drama crying side of things.

• I realize that even tho I still have things to accomplish in my life, there is food in my table, I have a roof over my head, and I have everything I need to be happy and to work and to continue to produce more money to be able to get all the other things I want.

• I'm working on something I like, even tho is not what I studied for I really like what I do and allows me to pay the bills and buy stuff for the acne and try to fight it back lol I don’t lose hope I will someday wake up with no more pimples on my face.

• The best thing about getting old is that since I already found the love of my life and we were ready and prepare to have him, I get to spend the rest of my days with the product of that love, my kid, and since he is getting older and smarter (he is only 2 years old) this was my first birthday with him singing to me the Bday song. And I just feel like nothing can top that not even the chocolate cake.
