My mother turned 90 this last Sunday. When I spoke with her, she was telling me that even though her body is wearing out, her mind is still sharp as a tack! I'm hoping I got those good genes from her.....I got her good hair, and ugly toes....so the sharp mind should follow too, right? I'm hoping!
Yeah, it sucks getting older....but at least we aren't getting our faces turned into freaky/puffy/ cartoon-like features like all the stupid movies stars! I just saw Regis Philbin's wife on a commercial, and she got the puffy upper lip and Cher-cheekbone poof! She looked awful! And she used to be so pretty! What's wrong with looking naturally older? I just don't get it!
Ahhh "youth is wasted on the young"... "You're as young as you feel"... I guess growing older is better than the alternative...death!!! I really hate what growing older does to me, because inside my heart I still feel like I'm 30! Well, not when I'm having palpatations! LOL! Blessings, Cindy
Come along as we embark on a NEW ADVENTURE: moving to Arizona and moving my mom in with us!!! Always up to something...I strive to keep friends and family updated with our lives. Hopefully I can uplift and entertain you along the way.

I do love that quote... but yes it sucks getting older!

I'd be able to ignore my age if my knees didn't crack so loud they woke me up!

I'm trying to ignore it, but creaks, snaps, and pops keep reminding me.
