Sunblossom

I am 60 years old, married for 29 years, divorced for 10.....currently with a wonderful guy who I met on E-Harmony 6 years ago....scary stuff to start dating again after all those years, but my ex was a very heavy weight around my shoulders, feel about 250 lbs. lighter!!!!  I have 3 children 29, 27, 25...no grandchildren....I am enjoying the freedoms that being this age brings....hate the burdens being this age brings i.e. wrinkles, arthritis, people calling you maam--huh, I guess that guy was talking to me....I haven't learned to be old yet, and guess maybe I never will.....just learned to finally be me.

I am stunned that I am 60, not sure how that happened....I see young girls and think, wow it was just yesterday I was her...

a postcard to my younger self

Ok, girl, you know that fork in the road you took in 1970, go back and take the other one........

my role models

Anyone who gets through this life successfully by way of honesty, integrity, perseverance....I truly hate the Ponzi-schemers of this world who think they can help themselves to other peoples success.....

"Right Placid about the old 68.....some people just settle in to that "senior" attitude and lifestyle, and, Irish, it just may be that you need a different type of guy.....I still believe in giving him a chance before shutting the door...like you said..." (read comment)
