Fifty feels like contentment, which is something that would have made me hurl in my twenties. But 'contentment' is great, as is calm, tranquil, easygoing, relaxed and chilled.

I turn 50 this weekend and when I read this, I couldn't agree more.
Being in a far better place in my life and accomplishing on my own (with God) what I have, reaching some pretty significant goals with buying my new home, losing weight and feeling great, and professionally, I can say 50 feels pretty awesome!
To think when I was 39 years old turning 40, I had a an elective partial hysterectomy as part of my 40's & fabulous life. That is a highly recommended decision.
Turning 50, I bought a beautiful new home, which has become quite the entertainment destination and I've created a list of 50 things I want to do for my birthday/this summer, and having fun checking off my list.
It's a beautiful place in life and I laugh at the 20's, 30's, and early 40's year old me who thought my life would most likely be over by 50, that I would be settled and matronly. I couldn't have been more wrong.
50's, I welcome you! I embrace you and I laugh in delight at this new & beautiful season in my life that is so unexpectedly serene and freeing and blessed.
Cheers to 50!
