Uhhhhhh what?

in TTC after 35

So I was watching the news last night and they were talking about an accident that killed a woman.  They referred to her as a 'middle aged woman' so, you know, I'm thinking she was late 40's-early 50's if not older.  

She was 38!  38! Indifferent

So now we are considered middle aged?   Ugh!

    I know, right. I thought 40 was the new 20...so doesn't that make 30's the new teen years?

    Wow....I may have to take some geritol this morning then. ?At 39 I thought I was still "kind of" young. ?(of course looking younger than your actual age helps, I did not appreciate it then, but when I was 20 people thought I was 15 and when I was 30 everyone thought I was 25. ?I am happy when people do not think I am that (39) old!!)

    I was thinking the same thing!  I think we should all write to that particular media and give them a piece of our minds!!!

    That is just so WRONG!

    It's reasonable to think we'll see 100, right?

    So, come back to us when we're 50, and we'll TALK about allowing ourselves to be called middle aged.

    <<<<<Running out of the post to dye my hair.

    Smilee, I really want a glass of wine every time I see your siggy. You're a bad influence ;-)
