I don't really have a problem saying my age I am happy I have made it this far. So many things could have happened but they didn't and I am here at 54 (did I really say that out loud :w00t and loving every minute of it. Ok to be honest maybe not loving every minute but aren't all the aches and pains just reminders that we are alive. :blush:
You are just a "babe". :HistericalSmiley: Well, okay, not a babe, but I am still older than you. On the outside, I'm in my 50's. On the inside, I am in my 20's. :HistericalSmiley:
I'm 47 and it took a lot of work to get this old! I wasn't sure I'd make it this far.So as you get older ,celebrate it. Set a goal,even a small one,like walking a mile,it keeps you alive.
My goal was to bench press 125 pounds,not bad for a middle aged old lady (compared to you young chickies), I'm up to 130 pound press,and working harder... now I wish I just weighed 130....
I figure we're all getting older and at the same rate,one minute at a time,24 hours at a shot.
I tell hubby don't get mad about getting older,get healthy and stay as healthy as you can.
Now if I met someone getting younger,then I'd be mad!
I use to think that 28 (the age of my aunt, when she finally, went into private practice) was SOOOOOO OLD! I heard her tell someone (at the party that we had, in celebration of her accomplishments) - her age - and for years I thought about how she probably wouldn't "last too long, at such an OLD age").
My parents always told me, that when someone died - "it was old age" - well, when you're six, 28 is pretty darn old -
Funny, because at 50 - seventy seems young - - - :blink:
Last summer I was talking with my 13 year granddaughter and I mentioned that we would be going to AZ for the winter but I sometimes didn't like being around all the old people, she looked surprised and then said "GRANDMA YOU ARE ONE OF THE OLD PEOPLE":HistericalSmiley::innocent:For some crazy reason age has never bothered me, I'm 61, and the youngest one in the RV park:HistericalSmiley: hummmm maybe that's why I keep coming backB)

LMAO :smrofl::smrofl:
58. How is it that I used to be the youngest person in the room (and the shortest) and now I'm often the oldest? :smilie_tischkante: Still usually the shortest :angry:and probably getting shorter, thanks to my lack of bone density.:w00t: Heck, I've got my health, a great husband and son, and TYLER :chili::chili: so life, and getting old, is good. And it sure beats the alternative! I'm also older than by DH by 4 years so that makes me feel really old sometimes but he doesn't seem to care.:wub: That's love
Calendar wise, I am 54. After bathing babies, cleaning house and at around 7:00 in the evening after MANY trips up and down the stairs, I feel like 80 YO:HistericalSmiley::HistericalSmiley::HistericalSmiley:
I tell my DH that after all of these tasks I feel like the dolls from the dollar store S T I F F :faint:
My children are 35,29,25 ( in few days ) grandkids 11,7, 3
Why not share our birthdays too. Mine is July 1 ! how about your guys?
Aug. 13 ... 59 (and darn glad to have reached this ripe old age)!! I embrace every birthday I have!! Children are 33 & 29; grandkids are 7, 4, 4, 2, & 1!!
I am 60 years young. My husband is retired and I have to support his lifestyle of golf and baseball cards. I am glad he is retired so he can be with Tyson all day.
I am 65 and this is the very first year of my life. . . . that I have actually felt "older"---I am truly entering a new world---no longer as young as I have always felt! I am figuring out what it means to "grow old gracefully" and hope that my daughters will enjoy me at "this age" and that I will continue to learn, love and laugh!
I got one of those and found it very disturbing. Who told them? I bought myself a beautiful watch. :chili:
I am 63 and the watch is still ticking and so am I. :chili:
