Saturday, December 31, 2005 - 20-something or 40-something?

Ok, I just don't get this!  I mean, I admit that I happen to have a hair color that naturally hides gray (thank God!), and for the first time in my life, I'm finally glad that I don't have that dark brown hair I always wished for when I was growing up.  And I've lost a little weight, although I still have a LONG way to go.  And I've been trying to branch out from my usual t-shirt and jeans wardrobe, but nothing spectacular or ultra-modern (I happen to think that a 40-something trying to look like a 20-something is a sad caricature).  And my 17yo and 19yo dss COULD pass for 21 or 22, but no older than that.

Why is it, then, that THREE times in the last two months, someone has thought I was the WIFE of one of my ds instead of their mother?!

Naturally, I'm flattered, but I just don't get it!  And the kicker is that when my 4yo ds was a baby, I kept getting asked whether he was my grandson!

Post A Comment!

Interesting conundrum you find yourself in! Are you old, are you young, 20 something or 40 something? There *could* be worse things...

Ah well! I hope you and your family have a wonder-filled year in 2006.

Blessings!

I think you asked me about snow? And how to make it snow in front of your stuff instead of behind? UMmmm...I don't know! Actually, I had the same problem and it went back to normal when I moved the script to a different place in my template. I usually have no clue about template stuff - I just imitate the better ones at it :)

You weren't kidding when you said it's been a long time since you've blogged. What's up lately? I just popped over from the SL REfugees forum. See you around!

What a nice compliment! It sounds like you are getting more youthful looking the older you get. Just think, when you have grandkids, they will think you are the sibling! LOL
