Holy crap!! I’m 50?!
- Fun fact: Sometimes I pee a little when I sneeze really hard now.
- Reading glasses are now a permanent part of my daily ensemble.
- Wearing sweatpants in public is now completely acceptable to me.
- As a married woman with a not too shabby sex life, I no longer have to be worried about becoming pregnant (‘course that ship sailed long ago..but still, it’s a pretty cool perk).
- I now think before I eat so I make better food choices than I used to. With the exception of the piece of gourmet chocolate birthday cake which was most certainly bigger than my head (and possibly my ass, combined) when I thought “I’m going to eat this whole thing because, well, it’s my birthday-duh!”)
- Regular massages are simply. The. Best. Thing. Ever. (well, except for gourmet chocolate birthday cake).
- I’m cool with being a grandma now. Way more fun than being a parent for sure! As my mother in law has said “if I had known how much fun being a grandparent was, I would have done that first!” Not like that makes any real sense of course, but you get the gist.
- I have way more to write about at age 50, than let’s say, aged 27 and 3/4.
- I’ve got less time to waste (which can be anxiety producing or motivating as hell, depending on my mood that day).
It’s all about perspective, right people?
