Age is only a number for some. Attitude and a little white lie are much better. I refuse to get older (dreadful word).
As I have every intention of staying here until my number say 90 I have to keep a young attitude. Antique and vintage are not the same thing. One would hope to be worth quite a bit by the time we reach antique status. |

I've noticed a whole lot of ebay sellers don't really have a clue what they're talking about. |
The worst moment for me was having the music on as I sew, and having my DD ask "Why are you listening to that 'old' music"? Aerosmith and Queen are old????? I think I need a nap. :oops:

As I continued to look through the various quilts I realized that many of them were from my childhood and they are labeled vintage. Now that official definition of an antique is 50 years or older. I am 51 and the realization came to me OMG I'm vintage! LOL I have the soul of a 30 year old.
