Do you feel your age??

[~Victoria~]

I am 35 - some days I feel like I'm 21 and I look in the mirror in utter horror, seeing wrinkles and things that are lower to the ground than they used to be, although I keep in great shape.

Some days I have aches and pains and feel like I should just sit in the rockin' chair and wait for the "big day."

Getting old.... well a lot of the time, it stinks (can you say sucks here? ) But, if only I knew then what I know now.

I'm 33 and I most definately do not feel like I'm 33. Some days I feel like I'm 942, and some days I feel like I'm 15.

My Mom thinks I still act like a teenager

Some days I feel much older and others...well, I still do act like a teenager....love to giggle

When we had all that rainy weather I felt 110! But as soon as the sun came out, I felt normal (43!).

I do have small aches and pains - but as the saying goes - as long as I'm feeling SOMETHING life is good!

I am 26 and some days I feel my age and a few times I feel younger than my age. Most of the time I do feel a heck of a lot older though. Fortunately I am told that I at least look young so I have that to bank off of

I'm almost 54 but I'm mentally stuck in my early twenties. It's always a surprise to realize I'm not that young

I am 34, but since I waited until 30 to have my kids, they make me feel young every day. Of course, every night I feel very old since I am trying to keep up with two DDs (4.5 and 19 months)!!

every bit of my 35 years old!!! Getting grey hairs, things lower to the ground than they used to be LOL. But I'm working on feeling younger.

Actually, I feel pretty much like the same person I was in my early 20's. I'm 46. Yeah, some things hurt...my feet mostly...but it's not bad.

Years ago my Mom was travelling and we would write letters. And she would send MY letters along to her sisters, and she'd send THEIR letters to me. On the occassion of my aunt Catherine's 65th birthday she wrote to my Mom that she could scarcely believe she was that old...that she felt exactly the same on the inside that she always did. This stuck with me all these years. AT her 85th birthday party in October, I asked he if she still felt that way and she said yes!!

And remember: Getting old beats the hell out of the alternative!!!

Sometimes I feel my age or a little younger, but most of the time I feel older than 27 (I have been married, I have two kids, I'm with a 39 year old man). Luckily, most people are shocked when I tell them how old I am though.

I definitely don't feel my age. I am 35 - I can't believe it sometimes. I feel that I look pretty good for my age, but sometimes I look in the mirror and see lines and gray hairs and get freaked out by them.

This morning, I felt like I was about 500 years old - DH and I shared a couple bottles of wine last night and I sure felt it this morning.

I was born in 1963, and yet I'm always 29!! How does that happen??

BTW, my mom recently had to go from age 29 to 39. A family full of miracles!!

I didn't really feel my age until I got into my fifties (57 now). I guess that was when everything started catching up.

Now that I feel my age, my wife thinks I should start acting my age. Gee, do I have to?

Bet you can't guess the one place I start feeling younger again...
