p.s. I was doing a pilates class yesterday and the almost perfectly formed young thing next to me could barely keep up. I thought, I may be old but I can still move what I need to move and in a very good way. I'll wager in 7 years you will be even better than you are right now.

Shelley,
Happy soon to be 43.
I'll be 56 on April Fools Day. So, you know, be good.;-)

The idea is to die young as late as possible.

I hit that number in July so I'm right behind you.
Just remember - 40 is the new 30, 50 is the new 40, etc. so you're really only turning 33.

Considering the alternative...........well...ya know...
I'll be 45 in a few weeks and am choosing to approach it the same as when my kids were little and pined to be a different age than they were. I always told them, be VERY excited!! You've NEVER been 43 before and NEVER will again, bask and revel in it, savour and relish.....be REALLY good at being 43:7 Every year, every day, every hour is a gift! (even the sucky years, days and hours....a gift)
Hope you have a happy birthday!

A friend who is a mid-wife was just saying how she can no longer tell everyone she is 29. (She is 35, but could pass for 29 in my book) Her 15 year old DD had friends over and they asked her how old she was. She said 29. One of the girls thought for a second, then said, "You mean you had a baby when you were 14?"

I like being 42. I can tell people that I'm the answer to life, the universe and everything

Okay. Here's an idea. Just use a different numbering system. For example, I am 56, BUT in hexadecimal I am 38. Only in hexadecimal you are 2B, so that doesn't work so well for you right now. BUT you can make up your own. You could use a base 20 system--and then you would be 23! There you go! We could call is something like vientedecimal. You are still the same you, but you have defined yourself in a different way.;-)

Sorry Shelley, I wish I could understand what you are so upset about, but I am sooooo much younger than you that I can't even imagine what you are going through.
I WAS hoping you might have some words of wisdom (age brings on wisdom doesn't it?) on how you keep up with the Cathe videos at your advanced age...
And I am SHOCKED that you were even considering tatoos and piercing at your age - how inappropriate!!!! What will the other ladies at the retirement community think!

is not an act but a habit.

I'll be 38 next week and have been told that I'm the "energizer bunny", which makes me feel good. (Lately I haven't felt that way, though! lol). I do know I can out-dance the "young" ones when I go line dancing.....
