30 and 40 were a breeze for me...but 50...oh my...50 was hard!!

60 was the worst!!!! I am now pushing 62.

I loved my 30, 40th and 50th. In fact, I threw my own party for my 50th. I had DH rent the VFW in our neighborhood and invited about 60 friends and family.

We had a blast.

60 ~ ooofa! That was rough. I ain't gonna lie on that one.

Just another birthday. (Like my 40th, 50th, 60th and 70th) No big deal. In a year and a half it will be my 80th - G o d willing...

I loved turning 30!

Thirty five was a whole 'nother story though.

You sure are on top of your game mentally when it comes to the trivia quiz.

I don't even remember it as it was just another day to me....the same for 40 & 50!

Busy life with toddler, husband and career when I turned 30. I had some of the same thoughts and moments you are having, however, I learned often 30s is a much better decade than 20s. IMO - women are smarter, more compassionate and more beautiful. Enjoy this wonderful decade!

Mel, why did your sister cry?

(if it's none of my business, tell me it's none of my business. LOL)

Because she was turning 30.
