Today I broke my favorite ruler. It's an Eleanor Burns Quilt in a Day 6" square dated 1989. I think I got my moneys worth out of it and I'll definitelly buy another one like it. Made me realize how long I've been quilting.

But--I also realized that ruler is older than the extern who is training in our office!!! OMG!!

When I moved back to Texas, I thought it was a bit odd that one of the doctors was my high school friend's little brother. Now the doctor I went to for my foot went to school with my kids.

I'm NOT that old! Really I'm not! Am I? Nope...counting backward now...lol

Don't fret about getting old Ladies, it sure beats the alternative.

You are soooo funny! Just had my 55th b-day, so feel a little old too right now.
When I went back to college for my RN after 25 years as an LPN, my first clinical instructor was young and looked a little familiar....turns out he was a classmate of my eldest DD!!!!!!!! What a kick! :-)

The first time I really felt old was the first time I drove through a college campus and wondered what all those "kid" were doing there! Before that I always thought they looked like me....and now they look like babies!!
