LOLOLOL! When you get to the far side of Hill Five-0, if you are lucky and really selfsecure, you realize that you don't give a rip what everyone thinks and, like the old guy in the corvette, you go drivin' with the top down at midnight with 70s rock blaring and actually get a kick out of the weird looks you get because you know that every one of those little snits will get there some day. You just hope you'll still be around to get to say I TOLD YOU SO!

They have then purchased pool tables, swimming pools, home theatre systems, etc. etc. etc. This means they are all staying home more - cuz now it's lots of fun... (and we're kinda tired around 10:00) and when I go to a dueling piano bar, or anywhere that would be a fun night out... the people there are my kids' age. And though I don't look like an OLD 44, inside I want to tell that 21 y.o. in the corner that her bf is a jerk and she could do much better, and I don't feel at all weird talking to young women I don't know, since they are about my daughters' age and they don't have that snotty female rivalry attitude going on towards me.<BR/><BR/>When I was in Boston at Jake Ivory's I had to leave as the place got really busy around midnight - I felt really foolish just being there - like the gray haired guy who took his vette out for a car cruise on Saturday night when I was a teenager and we all rolled our eyes as he drove by.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06892921431345392453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-40716328257111525.post-60027622905705778772008-03-08T02:54:00.000-06:002008-03-08T02:54:00.000-06:00This post was too funny and it's only because I kn...This post was too funny and it's only because I know exactly what your talking about. I am 44 and my husband is 5 years younger. He thinks he is even younger that he actually is. I have a 4 year old and I am definitely the oldest mom out of the preschool moms. My oldest is 24 so I was once the young, cool, mom too. Although my 17 year old wants to know when this actually was.Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06153847712814391815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-40716328257111525.post-2546026652453853102008-03-08T01:55:00.000-06:002008-03-08T01:55:00.000-06:00I'm sorry Angie, I couldn't make out part of your ...I'm sorry Angie, I couldn't make out part of your post, I couldn't find my glasses, so when I got up to look for them I remembered that I needed to go take my daily vitamin...but when I got into the kitchen I forgot what I was doing in there...so I came back in here and then I sneezed and peed in my pants a little so I went to the bathroom and saw a bottle of Geritol...so I went to the kitchen to get a glass of water to take my vitamin, and I found my glasses, then I came back in here, but I was too tired to read anymore.

I'm trying so hard to stay young, ie. 30-ish!!!

With my 1st child I was the young mom as I had her in my 20's. Having #4 at 33 puts you in the mature mentor mom phase. I do have one advantage, though...my husband is 4 years older than me and most of our friends are at least that or more. I used to hate being the youngest in our group...but now I LOVE it! I love to tease them that they getting so old - 40th Birthday parties are so much fun when you are planning them for other people! All that being said...you truly are only as old as you feel!Catharinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04969896534323896903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-40716328257111525.post-10698900736548671272008-03-07T10:41:00.000-06:002008-03-07T10:41:00.000-06:00LOL!!! taquito and a flauta!!
