I知 just saying

Certainly life has not passed me by
The bags under my eyes have let me know otherwise

My hair still thick and full keeps me
going back and forth to the discount drug store for 100 percent gray coverage

Is there even such a thing? If so can it last more than 2 wash and conditionings?

Or is the coverage only guaranteed by a wig? I need to know my roots are showing!

Then there is the cruelest joke on womanhood.....I heard of the hot flashes and Menopause my friends tease me but oh not yet a girl turning 50 can dream....

Well I still sing and shake it like a well not so much don't want the girls to smack me in the face or throw my back out.

Anyhoo this is my issue when did I change? My teenager tries to motivate me you Can do it mom as she smiles Then I try, Lord knows I don't want to ruin her image of me.

Well I walk not as fast as I used to I blame it on divatude, unless there is wind chill factor involved.

I no longer submit to the newest fad If I was meant to wear it I would have it in my closet already from years ago

My memory ain’t what it used to be
That very well could be due to the late 70's early 80's it was all a blur

Why am I whining I am so very blessed to see beyond this midlife crisis

Oh I am venting…… can you relate?......I’m just saying

Awwwww, just take it one day at a time and don't worry about. Wear the medal of age proudly because there are many who never even get close...

Be always safe,
