Forty, the Unforgivable Number

Since moving from New York to Palm Harbor, FL sixteen years ago, I have enjoyed the sunnyside of life as well as the afternoon storms, and as the time has progressed, there have been noticible changes in both the area and in me.

Even after countless bottles of sunblock and SPF infused make-up, my looks and the town around me have changed. Yesterday, I overheard a woman at the pool say that the reason why bathing suits don't look good on some women is because we are all expecting to see the body we had in our youth. "It's not the suit!" she cried.

In my blog "Forty the Unforgivible Number," I will write about no longer getting 'carded,' but still able to shuffle things up; gardening with a purple thumb; how to grab attention without getting grabbed; dressing for our age, not our shoe size; just who are OUR role models; and how we have more interests than collecting coupons, etc.

There is fun after forty, and I look forward to sharing those experiences with you!
