It doesn&#8217;t<br \/>\nbother me at all. In all honesty, I&#8217;m happy to be out of my 20s.

I wasn&#8217;t your<br \/>\naverage 20-something and I&#8217;m not your average 30 year old. I&#8217;ve<br \/>\nbeen through so much more in my lifetime then I can ever wish on<br \/>\nanyone. When your life changes overnight when you are only 18,<br \/>\neverything is different. (you can read about me and FAQs if you<br \/>\ndon&#8217;t know what I am talking about) My biggest problem is that<br \/>\nthese people are usually my friends. My friends are usually older<br \/>\nthen me. Older in number anyways. There is a reason THEY Are my<br \/>\nfriends and not very many people the same age as I am or younger.<br \/>\n(I DO have friends my age and younger, I&#8217;ve just always had more in<br \/>\ncommon with people that are older). Some of that is probably<br \/>\nbecause I am the baby of 9. My oldest sibling is about to be 54.<br \/>\nI&#8217;ve never really been around that many people MY age (except at<br \/>\nschool). ANYWAYS. Back to my birthday. Charlie and the boys are<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.konagrill.com\/\">taking me to<br \/>\nKONA<\/a>. It&#8217;s probably my new favorite place.If you ever go,<br \/>\nget the sweet and spicy shrimp appetizer. I think we will probably<br \/>\nhave to order 2 orders. It&#8217;s the best thing ever. The macadamia<br \/>\nchicken is divine, too. The shoyu-cream sauce is just mouth<br \/>\nwatering. I have NO IDEA what is in it and I am afraid to ask. I&#8217;m<br \/>\ngetting a diamond band that almost IDENTICALLY matches my wedding<br \/>\nband to go on the OTHER side of my engagement ring. (i have two<br \/>\nthough. a gold one like hubbies and diamond one to go with<br \/>\nengagement ring). I&#8217;ll post a before and after.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\nhttp:\/\/www.wheelchairmommy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/20110214-114458.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full\" src=\"\nhttp:\/\/www.wheelchairmommy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/20110214-114458.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Yup. 30.
