only backgroundI'm a wife, mother and grandmother. I'm opinionated. I contradict myself frequently. Most of all, I love my kids. I believe in them. I fight for them. They're weird and wonderful. If you want to know more, here's a bunch of other stuff from my old site.
Rethinking The Age Thing

Looked in the mirror this morning and saw wrinkles. A LOT of wrinkles. They’re not just around my eyes now, they’re on my cheeks, too. And my face is sagging.
So I’m trying to remind myself of all the good things about growing older. For example, I’m not as gullible as I was 20 years ago. I’m almost eligible for AARP, too. They have great discounts on travel, so that’s definitely good. And even though my body aches more now, I’ll consider medicare advantage, too.
The best thing about getting older, of course, is grandkids. Naturally, you need your kids to cooperate with you on that. I just can’t think of anything about being young that is as wonderful as having a grandchild.
Okay, the wrinkles are worth it. End of discussion.
