The big 40

Today is my 40th birthday.

It's a weird day. I'm feeling reflective for once. I don't feel old or young, successful or under achieving ... just a bit stuck.

I've been given wonderful presents from colleagues, friends and family and a lovely dinner cooked for me when I got home from my bestie who had also completely covered my home in balloons. She also gave me the most amazing cake with me in stripy pjs listening to the shipping forecast in my boat.

I'm planning to tick off as many things of my bucket list this year. My 40th year.

I think George is a bit miffed by all the birthday activities
