JeanieS: Waking Up Old

So, I woke up this morning, my birthday morning, as an older woman. Older than yesterday when I was 59. And somehow jumped into another decade as I have just turned 60. Ok, now I can tell you that I was being kind of optimistically frivolous when I made up my 60 reasons I am excited about turning 60. It’s more like, if you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em. I say it – 60 years old – and think to myself, uh, no that’s not me. That is not who I am. Age doesn’t describe the inner me. I am ageless in my mind – and you ask my two sons and they agree. I’m playful and goofy and pensive and romantic and introspective and soul searching. Has nothing to do with age/ JeanieS , Nuts & Nonsense. More here .

Question: You can use this thread to wish a happy birthday to JeanieS. And/or to let other Merry Hucksters and her know at which age you felt “old”?
