 Growing up
Wow, I think I might have finally reached a stage where others consider I'm a grown up now, I wonder when that happened, I must of blinked and missed it. This is a really strange thought to suddenly realize that I have opinions that are worth listening to, worth thinking about and actually might have some real meaning.

Although the body has been telling me for sometime now that the years have marched on without me taking much notice, yesterday I looked around and discovered my children are reasonably independent adults and I seem to manage all my day to day things without creating havoc. I wonder when it all changed and how I missed it?

I'm feeling a lot of relief knowing that I've finally got there.

Oh to be a kid again. No worries, no bills, just playing and having fun, think I'm ready for that. But, I never ever want to go thru the teen years again. The years do go by so fast, you turn around and your old.

BJ, I'd rather think of myself as a lovingly matured women and refuse to use the word old. Ah but to be in my 20's again.

A wonderful place to be, isn't it?! Age is not the worse thing, it actually comes with a few blessings.

V, I just don't understand how fast it has gone, where did the years ago, it wasn't so long ago that I was still a teenager.

Jen I've lost far more than 36 years and I'm sure I know where they went, someone stole them and gave me an old body.

OMG, many years have gone for me and I sometimes...many times feel like I still haven't grown up in the sense of being silly and goofy like a kid. But I hear you when you realize you are your own person with thoughts and opinions etc. etc.

Kal, in a lot of respects I hope I will never grow up, I still have that awe about doing and seeing new things, don't ever want to just slide into old age, think I might just get there kicking and screaming along the way. But it was quite a surprise recently when I realised that people were starting to take me seriously.

Glad to see you back, have missed you on here.
