I turned 40 over six months ago (!), which means I'm on the shy side of turning 41. Before any more time goes by, I want to acknowledge this milestone birthday for many of my friends and me. Unfortunately, for one reason or another, I haven't been able to attend any of the 40th-birthday parties to which I've been invited. And, for the remaining 40th-birthday parties to which I might be invited, I already know my RSVP is going to be "maybe" (which really means "no" in my world). So I am blanketly declining to attend any official 40th-birthday parties in 2012, you know, just to make it fair to all. However, I can't let the occasion pass without memorializing it somehow. The best I've come up with is a blog post about 40 Things to be Happy About. So, here goes. Enjoy!
