Can’t believe it sometimes, it feels like yesterday I turned 50. I was dumbfounded then. Every now and then a new wrinkle shows up. I take care of my skin but boom there it is. It is all downhill from there right? How do you deal? |
Being grateful for what still works and looks good. |
NP. Just curious. How old are you? |
Op, you are younger now than you'll ever be
(does that help ...?) |
If you don’t have cancer or an unhappy marriage, consider yourself fortunate.
Your concerns sound so superficial. Buckle up because old age holds alot worse than wrinkles! |
A lot happens quickly at 70. Enjoy 60.
Decide on a strategy for your hair. Keep dying it? You need it lighter as your face gets older. Let it go gray? Or bleach it silver? I wish I had done that. |
62. |
Im 44 and started plucking my grays yesterday. |
Grateful my workday goes by fast but the week going by so fast spooks me - 50 to age 60 went by so fast, I’m not looking forward to 70. Wrinkle coming in fast now, thank goodness for hair dye. |
For every skin tone? I’ve been debating this. |
I’m almost 64 and I completely agree. What really matters is the quality of your life, which is hugely impacted by health, relationships and fulfilling activities. Wrinkles are insignificant. |
The title of my story would be "Whose Thigh is That?" I am 62. |
I discovered a congenital defect in my heart in my 60’s. One could say my health took a turn for the worse but I don’t look at it that way. I am currently 69 and have big plans to watch my grandkids grow. I just adore them and they keep me young.
Someone mentioned that things start falling apart when you reach age 70. I have heard this too. Age has a lot to do with mindset and I plan on keeping mine positive. But, dear God, please spare me any more health surprises. |
My friend died at 56 and won't see her daughter graduate HS, go to college, etc. Getting old is challenging but there are worse things. |
Once you hit 70 things just really begin to ache. 60 was easy! However, my husband and I are both basically healthy, our marriage is great and our sex life is still very active so I really can’t complain. I know so many people who have lost a spouse or have major health problems and that is a good reminder that we are blessed. |
