I'm also wanting my hair to hurry up and go silver so I can color the tips in magenta and turquoise, lol. I might have to hurry along the silver though, I got my Mom's hair and she only had a touch of gray in her eighties!

Get those little rugrats off the couch and away from those video games and out walking and hiking with grandma. Visiting museums and learning history the real way by experiencing first hand instead of reading it in a book. Would I want to go back to my teen years? Heck no!! Back to my 20's or 30's?? not even. I love my life now. I'm fit, happy, and confident. This is the best time of my life. We’re not only a role model for our children, but our grandchildren as well.

And if we don't make the change and set ourselves up as positive role models, who will? I want my kids looking forward to the wisdom and grace of getting older! Now, the part about the grey hair though...haven't been able to give that up yet! I suppose when I can't see the roots anymore, I'll stop! I so agree with everything you said.

There is a certain freedom, lack of self examination that happens..and the kids are pretty much grown (for most of us) However the mirror is not always so friendly..and it does take a bit longer to get put together..However we feel more confident or if not..don't care ....And we look a lot better than our moms did at this age...that is pretty certain. Just thought I would put my two cents in ...carol stanley author of For Kids 59.99& Over. Aging is a love/hate proposition.

I've mellowed. And if I've become invisible in the sense of no longer being a "babe", then I've also become more visible in that I'm more authentic, and people sense this, I think.
