I know I shouldn't care about what others think but, I dont want to be the chick that evevryone is looking at like, "um she needs to stop thinking like a college kid and trying to act cool, she's old". That and there's the my babies aren't babies anymore and I'm not ever going to have a baby again thing.....
It's complicated.  |
Age is just a number. It sucks to get old but it sure beats the alternative.
I remember my 20s.
No aches and pains and eat all I could and stay skinny with no effort. I remember waking up in my new house on my 26th birthday. I was single and had my own home but I was suddnely deep in debt I could not afford to date much. Women are the most expensive hobby a guy can have.
By the time I bought a washer & dryer fridge, and some second hand furniture I had less than a $100 cash. I lived paycheck to paycheck. Utility costs and food sucked up most of my money. Fortunatly my 914 was paid for and cheap to operate.
I sure do like the financial security of my 50s better. I have a job I enjoy and now that my hip is replaced I have no real aches and pains.
