I turn 41 this year, so I am planning on using the show for ideas on how to "young" things up in my life. I am really starting to feel like an old man. YUCK!!!!

Can't resist this thread! I've embraced FORTY and FIFTY and still goin' strong! Only as old as you feel guys! Here is a sample of my schedule.

Wake up 5:30
Coffee and head out to the gym
back to officially wake up before work
On to the church for a full day and SOMETIMES a full evening of work
This week on Monday I was in Murfreesboro TN for a meeting
Last night I was at church working with the Youth Dept on a performance
Today I have an art class BEFORE work and church tonight
I THINK everything looks clear for Thursday and Friday
No WAIT! Friday I have to work (usually my day off) special showing of The Passion at the church that night
Lunch date with a Sunday School student on Saturday (in another town)
Church on Sunday and after a family dinner (for which I have to make a dessert)

I'm over fifty and STILL standing.....er.....RUNNING! LOL

Let's see I turned 40, 3 years 7 months and 29 days ago.

Before I know it I will be 44.

I have already out lived my dad by a few months.

Next thing I know it will be 50 time.

Life just goes so fast.

I remember writing an essay in the 5th grade.

It was titled "Where will I be on Jan 1st, 2000.

I knew I would be 35.

I wrote about how I would have a family, a home a dog or maybe a cat.

What I did not see was all the pain that I went through to get to the year 2000.

I am going to write a new paper this weekend.

I am going to title it.

Where will I will be on July 20th, 2114?

When I turn 50.

I want to see if I even come close...

Lord, I don't even know why I looked in that particular purse. When I saw the Target receipt I jerked in out of the purse and ran into the bedroom to tell my husband who has been furious about that besides the dog!

And I did a decoupage embossed napkin effect on some dresser drawers and while he was taking a shower I opened his pocket knife and started cutting the whole thing off! He comes in the bedroom, "What are you doing?"

"I don't like it anymore."

"It figures. It just figures!"
