OUCH! It just Dawned On Me I'm 50!

Monday, June 29, 2010


OUCH!  It just dawned on me that I'm 50!

You know, I thought I handled the 50th Birthday Surprise Party rather well.......embraced the actual "Birth Day" with grace and ease......and welcomed the 50's with anticipation and excitement...

Until Saturday.

A week after turning 50, reality set in.....UGH........I'm old.

  1. Someone in your family (I won't say what HIS name is) wanted me to send you a 60th BD card as a joke.

  5. Geez, louise, I am 52 and I am not old. Life begins now. A few more aches and pains. And as for smarts? You are musch smarter at 50. You can get things done faster because you don't have to relearn wisdom. You are much better off. You are right where you need to be. Its awesome. Great, wonderful, amazing. I feel alive!

    Oh, ugh, I am over fifty too. Geez.

  6. I love the t shirt....you just need to cut the sleeves off real short...like a muscle shirt so any breeze can be put to good use, especially in this horrible weather......hot, hotter and hottest with humidity dripping....and bug city right here in Bradenton.....I bet you can't wait till you get to some cooler places! I have a box of stuff started but have not finished it
    and it includes some stuff for your birthday, for your belly dancing or halloween (whichever) and some stuff for the grandkids...a real mixed mash.
    I will send it when I get your blog that you are headed home...sorry I am so late.....that stuff I sent earlier was just bits and pieces from the beauty
    show...not birthday stuff....just junk stuff. Take care and stay safe and get somewhere cool....my heart is with you both.

  15. Wait until you hit 70; 50 now seems like a mere child to me! Of course, I don't think you're old until you hit 100 so I have 29 years to go.

    Enjoy your travels and I hope we bump into you again.

  16. Every time I have complained to my Mom about some ache or pain or memory or whatever this age thing brings on, she (at almost 99) replies, "well, it doesn't get any better!" By the way, she still lives in her own home and although she uses a walker, she practically runs with it. Has no aches or pains (she says), and is VERY healthy. So...we have a lot of years yet to go through this "stuff"!! Yes - you are too sexy to be 50. You look like you are way younger. I remember when we lived in Taiwan (Joe with RCA) and thought we were so old. I think we were about 45. Jan
