What about you screams "aging?"

Have you seen gray hairs? Have you got the old spare tire around the waist? Have you traded in happy hour for the early bird special?

Almost everything about me screams aging! My stylist found my first gray hair a month or 2 ago, my back hurts, I want to sleep all the time. I only leave the house to get groceries or take the kids somewhere, and I'm turning 30 in a little over 2 months. I really don't care about my age. I'm really okay with turning 30. I figure I'm going to get old no matter what I do I might as well roll with it.

T-I-R-E-D!!  Almost always.  Except when it's time for bed.  Then I am wide awake.  Isn't that geriatricish?

I get up with the chickens! 5:30 this morning. Ate a doughnut(I know, no wonder I feel old) and got heart burn. Does that not just scream octogenarian?

Hmmm, all of the above? wink


I have discovered a bunch of white hairs lately.  And it's so much harder to lose weight all of a sudden.  Of course, I don't really work towards it, so it may not be an aging thing.  ; )


Greys, definitely!  But they started in college.

Also, the early bird thing.  Can't stay up late at ALL.

I started to invest money in hair coloring...

it takes longer to look the same - still doable thanks to Helena Rubinstein, SIGH.

It takes longer to stay fit too.

And I am in bed before the chicks. Yawn

Hmm...interesting question.  Definitely grey hairs, but my hair is a dirty blond or very light brown, so not so noticeable.  The happy hour thing really makes me sad cause I use to be the happy hour queen.  Even though so much about me screams aging, the older I get, the more confident I get and the more wonderfully fabulous life gets.

I'm going to have to start consistently highlighting my hair.  When I got a hair cut this week, I asked about the grays.  And my hair dresser said, she was seeing a few, and while it didn't look bad, it didn't look good either. Yikes!

My weight is at an all time high.  And I can't seem to get motivated to lose it.  I hate that about aging.  I miss being able to eat whatever I want!

And I walk like a really old person when I get out of bed in the morning.  It's like everything doesn't quite work in concert for the first few minutes. 

I know my husband must think it's three shades of sexy!

My hips are killing me, especially when I sit too long, LOL.  Dang....I'm not even that old yet.
