    Frannie, you're as sharp as a tack, and have the greatest since of humor! And I must say, you're a glamorous looking lady. I bet that you still turn heads!

    Excuse me, my head was turning. Ok back to the topic. Im 46 and feel 46. I still work out 3-4 times a week. I got into powerlifting years ago.( Not bodybuilding ladies ). I am 5'10" 256 lbs. I can still give the young bucks at the gym a run for their money. I jog about 2-3 miles every other day as well. I have diabetes and have to watch myself, so I try and stay in somewhat reasonable shape.

    MrsMcDucket, you're too kind, cher. That's all just "window dressin' " anyway. Well, at least the engine is still runnin and I CAN still get it in gear.

    I am 53 but fortunately, don't feel any different to when I was 30.
    I guess keeping fit is a bit harder now a days. I still try to run for 30 mins each day and manage this 5 or 6 times per week but this is something I have done all my life. I watch what I eat and as a result feel pretty fit most of the time.
    I think that us of the baby boomer generation are very lucky in that we have enjoyed plentiful, good quality food and the best of health care.

    I'm only 31 and I feel OLD! Yes, Ms. McDucket, the bitterness and pain wears on a person. I have several chronic health conditions that also wear on me, but mostly, I think carrying this anger is what really has taken a toll. I want to find a way to just end it once and for all and let it go. I probably need to go to therapy, but after having done that years ago, the thought of starting over is overwhelming.

    P.S. I think you're all beautiful people! You take the time to share your spirits, thoughts and hopes. Can't get any better than that!

    Do I feel old?? Depends on when you ask.

    If it's been a long week at school, I haven't slept much, I've spent too much time doing homework and I haven't eaten as much as I should have, then yes, I feel very very VERY old. Some days, after a few nights of only getting maybe 4 hours of sleep and not eating regularly, I feel like I'm 80 years old.

    But, if I'm eating and sleeping well and I'm not too overworked, then I feel like a 12-year-old!! It also helps that I haven't changed at all, physically, since junior high, so I still look young, too!!

    Right now, I'm feelin' pretty good, I slept lots last night, I'm cooking some tortellini for supper and I'm gonna veg out in my PJs with a good 80s movie and some popcorn later on, so right now, I'm definitely feeling really young!!
