Helloooo!! Peeking in again. I am officially in my 40's now so I guess I belong here!

Welcome! How does it feel to be a member of the club?

Howdy Lofters, I hope that everyone is having a happy weekend. I am home and happy to be here with the kitties.

Chad

Evening lofters! Hope everyone's having a fabulous weekend! :)

In my bed. Waiting for sleep to take over. Just wonder y I can't stay awake in my recliner but I get in before and I'm eise azz awake

I hear you. In my mind and in my body, I'm still officially in my mid-twenties. Except, I really do love my age, and all the things that I've learned.

One helpful factor is that I don't have any aches or pains. Nothing.

Hey now! It says butches and femnes in their 40's!

I'm getting the aches and pains already. :|

(pout sulk) get offa my lawn, y'wee whippersnapper! (chuckle) - I still feel like a late teen in many ways in my head, but my body is FULL of aches and pains... sigh.. :-} Enjoy the ache-free years while they last, Introverted1!

(Intro quickly sprinting from Esme's lawn....)

I hope I remain ache-free for a very long time...I know I'm lucky!

There was a fabulous interview of Edie Falco on Bullseye this morning. The interviewer was ticking me off a bit, he was borderline insulting in pointing out that Falco's career didn't really begin to take off until she was nearly middle-aged (in her mid-thirties! Really?).

She replied beautifully that in her opinion, her life has just gotten better and better with each decade, and that she's hitting her stride right now.

Aches and pains, bah humbug. My mom taught us all about mind over matter. She was a pro. ballerina through her 30s. Smiling through performances that I would have called "safe word" on. Her right great toe nail never did heal properly. She used to tell me stories of taping up her foot when I started in about taping ankles and wrists doing gymnastics. Made me feel like a wuss, though not her intention. Was just trying to bond.

Oh my gosh, I've have heard horror stories about the pain of ballet! Your mom was a definite trooper, cathexis.

You were a gymnast? Did you have a specialty? I can definitely see how that would be wear and tear as well.

Ballet ain't no joke. I have no idea how they do it. Props to your mom!

And very interesting that you were a gymnast. How long did you do that for?

I think I'm up for a hike this morning...what are the rest of you up to today?

I woke up earlier with a headache so thus far I've only managed to reboot my start. :p I took a couple aspirin, went back to bed, just woke up and feel WAY better! Some fresh air and sun sound like a great way to go! :koolaid:

I`m doing some decluttering which so far has resulted in a lot of clutter.

I think I need some of Clay`s stackable totes !
