Does it bother you to tell your age? Why do people want to know?

I could care less about age...either they are asking me because I looked like the 200 year old Dali Lama or they are asking me because they are amazed at my wisdom, hahahahhahaah

Anyway, I am 69 and proud of it. I may be 69 because that is the accepted way but I don't feel like 69. I am always at my favorie age of 32. That is when I got real upstart and spoke back to my elders hahahahahah

I'm 29 and holding......at least that is what I told everyone when I was suppose to turn the big 3 0 ..but they keep reminding me that I am 53 now. Age is only a #. I don't look in the mirror therefore I do not see the greyhair. I do remember a few years back I saw my elbow in the mirror while cleaning it and I thought OH Lord what has happen to me I have my mother's old elbow -LOL
I just started riding moutain bikes with my son and DIL - had never been on one and hadn't been a reg. bike in a few years. It's a blast. At first I said oh no I am not going to ride I might break an old bone-then I said what the heck , I could stumb my big toe tomorrow and break my neck-give me a bike!

I am a whopping 48.5

I am 45 ... but holding at 40 :wink: that was a great year for me :thumbup:

42, but I feel alot younger, lol!

43 and still trying to figure out how I got to be 43.. Do not remember the time passing this fast before. But when i was 34 I thought I was 32 and was feeling out some papers when my husband corrected me. I did not believe him till he got the calculator out and proved it to me. I still do not know where those 2 years came from. Then on my b day I thought I was turning 38 and dad looked at me and said I was 37. I liked that much better than being told I was 2 years older. Now I try not to care. I started menopause a couple of years ago, I feel extremely young to be in menopause, so that was hard to come to grips with. I think I am handling it better now though. Sorry this is so long, did not know I had this much to say about my age. It must have hit a button with me.

That's what I keep saying although it is getting more difficult to pass that off seems as my oldest hit thirty (SS), in february, and the youngest is about to be 21 in 6 months.

But it's my story and I am sticking to it, even if my DL says I am about to be 45

I am 23. Sometimes I feel so young and inexperienced on here, but I love learning from everyone. Age shouldn't be important in my opinion.

I just celebrated my 36th anniversary of my 30th birthday. :-D :-D

If my kids weren't so darn old (43, 41 & 39) I would never realize how old I really am. But they keep aging!!!

60 & 11/12's

Four months from today I will be 62? I can hardly believe it! Where does the time go?

55. I earned every one of those darn years...and every gray hair...which is gray.

I am 45 and I don't mind getting older...it sure beats the alternative!!! LOL

I am soon to be 55 and I love where I am at!!!

I don't mind my years - I just mind LOOKING like them!

More years for you to become an expert quilter! :)

I'm 45 1/2. :)

66 years!!!

i am 4 months from my ss, age has never been a big deal to me, i remember when i turned 30 thought it was the end of the world but that passed every year has only gotten better,keep remembering what my mom told us, takes guts to get old. lol
643/4 and holding

ALMOST 55 AND GLAD TO BE HERE!!!

yipeeeeeee I am the oldest hahahahahah.....I forget my birthday most of the time really, no kidding and I forget my anniversary all of the time (39 years this past June 4th). Hubby never forgets, bless him...we don't do gifts we just want money..hahahahahah

Oh BTW, I love my grey/silver hair. No more dying. I stopped at 60. I am now officially a platinum blond...

I'm 53 but Dr. Oz's real age test says I'm 72 :(

I am 55 and never have had any problem with admitting my age. However, I still feel about 32, just wiser than I was then. I rejoice for every year I've been around - why hide it?

I'm 42 and proud of it. Some days I feel 25 and others I feel 85. Having a little one around I think is what keeps me going.

ill be 52 in Nov,actually had to get a calculator out to figure it out,thats either sad or good,cuz I don;t feel it(?)

56. I've been told so many time that I don't look my age, so I do not concern myself with it.

53 yrs, 1 day and a few hours. Yesterday was my birthday and I still say it is just another day, I just didn't have to work. I mentioned to my son yesterday that he is 35 and I am 53 and I thought that was kind of weird.......

I'm 44 and I love this age.

53 years old (Birthday, November 15, 1956)

47 years, 4 months, 8 days. Some days I feel older but some days I feel younger.

I'm 34 (in Hexadecimal... that's the geeky base-16 counting system used by computers - yes, I'm a geek, LOL!)

In regular counting, I'm 52.

Im 29!! I have two kids 9 and 5!! And I feel like a kid so age is just a number!! lol

I'm 20 x 3 minus 5mos = Granny x six !!
Love it...I wouldn't go back to a younger age even if I could. It wasn't so great...and I didn't have my grandbabies..

I'm 63

I just turned 57. When I'm with quilter friends of all ages I don't feel a day over 35.

I'm 56. Had a child at 45.

On June 13 I turned 59. 59? Can't be!!! What year was I born? Oh, yes, 1951. So.....59. Yup!! I have a daughter that will turn 36 in October. And another daughter who will be 26 in November. And a grandaughter that just turned 18 in May. OK, so I guess it is 59. I don't feel it, and people say I don't look it. My 85 year old mother looks great, and people think she's early 70's. Must be good genes!! :-)

I'm 48, and I love my age!

I just turned 50 this year and was so proud of making it to 50 that i told everyone I met that day! Can't believe it! I use to think 50 was old but now I just think its not old just a WHOLE lot smarter.

I'm 69 today and young at heart.
