I made it. I’m 30. Feels so good! Yesterday was perfect: a beautiful day of stunning 85 degree Virginia weather, a morning massage, afternoon and lunch at a vineyard and then a downtown dinner with my parents. It was everything that I could have hoped for, and so far, 30 is good!
This weekend, I have a mix of 30 actions, reflections and things for you to do. Do these and it will be a like a birthday present to me.
