I am going to post several blog posts, today. If these come to your inbox, I apologize.
March 4, I happily said good-bye to thirty and welcomed thirty-one. If you have not turned 30, yet, and you are wondering what it is going to be like, let me tell you it is true what they say!! Things start to go downhill. Just for funsies, here are some examples:
1. I lost 2 toenails and almost lost a pinkie fingernail.
2. I ran a 5K (a little under trained, I will admit) and about a week afterwards, I get this strange pain in my hip that is so awful I can't even walk down the hall. I just lay in the floor and cry. Wes stares.
3. Sitting on the couch one night, I notice my hand is hurting in the joint below my thumb and right above my wrists. The pain keeps getting worse and worse until I can't even touch my thumb to my index finger. I sit on the couch and cry. Wes tells me to go to bed. In the morning, I am fine! WTH!?!?!?
4. All of sudden, I can't remember things, I am not organized, and I don't care half as much as I used to. (Maybe this is good!)
Well, anyway, that is the short list of why I was happy to see 3.0, go!
Wes planned a wonderful day for me to welcome in 3.1 in New Orleans. We at Muriel's. They serve contemporary Creole cuisine. I ordered the special. After the waiter left our table, I said to Wes, "I have no idea what I just ordered, something about a puppy and a turtle." He assured me that I would not be eating a smaller of Beaux. And sure enough, I dined on a fine fish called a puppy drum and ate turtle soup which was very tasty. I highly recommend this restaurant the next time you are in New Orleans.
After eating, we shopped for hats for the Kentucky Derby. (Yep, I am going to that next month!) Then filled ourselves with candy and candied apples. We took a carriage ride around Quarter which was very informative and entertaining. Now, I have a long list of new places I want to visit on our next trip. We considered eating a beignet, but decided we were too sugared up, already. It was great day.
Thank you, Wes!
