Middle-age. And beyond
by Rosemary ~ January 30th, 2008Yesterday my sons were discussing the movie, “What About Bob?” and Bill Murray. They were speculating as to whether he would make a sequel to one of his movies when one son said, “I doubt it; he’s pretty old now.”
Me: “I think he’s probably younger than me.” (I’m not sure about that. At all.)
Son: “Yeah, he is; he’s middle aged.”
So my eyebrows flew somewhere up near my hairline and my mouth took on an I-just-ate-an-unripened-persimmon look.
Son: “Ho, Mom, Mom….hahahaha. I didn’t mean anything by that….sorry……You look really cool in your sunglasses.”
Nice save, Nate.
Guess I’ll just mosey on over to Kim’s Brown Plate Special plan and see if I can knock the edge off of some of these declining years.

Ha! That’s a good one!
Welcome to the Brown Plate Special! I’ve only been doing it since Monday, but so far it hasn’t been hard at all!

Middle age —-not so-o-o-o bad. The one that got me was grandma, you’re old. Why Landen ? Because I can beat you at this game and your hair is gray.
Children are so honest.

This is cute…I like the brown plate special idea! I eat really healthy these days, but smaller portions is always a good idea.
I love your sense of humor on this aging thing….I need some of that!

Oh what people perceive as old seems really off the older I get
Yep I’m with you on the brown plate special. Getting ready to post about it on Monday!
