Thirty Nine

Today I turn 39. This is the birthday where everyone asks you if you are ready for 40. After being asked that question several times, I realized I don't really think about my birthday that way. My birthday is a point where I reflect on the past year and look to what the days of the next year might bring. I'll deal with 40--whatever that means--when I turn 40. Today I look review.

For anyone that was interested, I thought I'd expound how you too could get $5 gift cards to Amazon.com and fund your favorite habit.

The WiX Tutorial is one of the most comprehensive resources on the web to learn the WiX toolset. Ensuring this resource remains available and stays up to date aligns perfectly with our goals at FireGiant.
