HAPPY BIRTHDAY to you both. I enjoyed your descriptions of aging. I’ll be 44 next month and I keep thinking that I’ll have to live to be 88 if I want to call myself middle-aged. I think that this is where I start having to accept that I’m on the down side of the hill.
The funnest part is my 15 yr-old daughter is sounding JUST LIKE ME on the phone...my friends, siblings, nieces, nephews, boss, and even my OWN MOTHER can't tell us apart. ha ha ha. the big question, "do i sound 15 or does she sound in her mid-forties".
