I just had a birthday this weekend. It’s hard to believe I’m as old as I am!! Rather than ignore it, I’ve included some
Tips for staying young (at heart)
Do have your hair colored!
Do trust your hair stylist
Do hang out with younger people
Do serve in your church’s youth group
Do eat right and workout (OK – I do one of these pretty well)
Do get outside as often as possible
Do have a myspace and a facebook and a blog!
Do let your daughters (or nieces, or a friend’s daughter) help you shop
Don’t pay any attention to the creaks, pops and groans of your joints
Don’t take yourself too seriously
Don’t, don’t, don’t look in the mirror any more than necessary!!

I’ve decided denial is the best policy in growing older. Not much I can do about it anyway---guess I’ll just enjoy it! It is much better than the alternative….. ;-)

My daughter Ali has a birthday one day before mine. Do you have family members with the same, or very close to your own, birthday?
