I am 72, probably look a lot younger....thanks to the genes! I try to make a point of standing straight, I work my tail off everyday. Our daughter is a full time masters student with twins (6) yrs, who all live with us. I am essentially a mother again with all the jobs that come with it. It was easier 40 years ago. But I do it, I volunteer at church and library, I sometimes work in the children's classroom. I think when we take to napping in the chair all afternoon with our mouths open, and shlep around like it is too much trouble to go from a to b. Then we get old! I will be old when all this happens. When I can't use my bow flex and exercise machines, I will be old. I know it will happen, but I plan on fighting every step until old. I just pray I get to keep my mind! I am so lucky, I am healthy. Chronic health issues send many people to old age way before they should be there. So I guess our biggest blessing is health.
