Same. Except we probably were middle aged 5-10 years ago. 😆

I don’t feel old but definitely notice a cheerfulness difference with younger friends. They are so bubbly. I miss that part of myself.

I am 68 and I guess I am old, but I am very healthy. I just volunteered myself to help with an arriving grandchild for a one year period.

The “old” thing hit me when I turned 60. It just sounded like such a big number.

Old for what purpose?

Competive gymnastics?
Having a baby?
Work?
Senior discount?
To live alone?

My very wise grandfather said that "old" is always 10 years older than you are

In 1929s, 55 was considered old, 65 was very old.

How about now?

Did anyone feel old at 50?
