Forever Young?

Here is a question for you...... How Old Do You Feel?
In this century it seems that we hear all kinds of things. I remember My Grandmother on my Fathers side, saying" Act You Age". She use to say it to my Granfather. They Both have passed on, however those words stayed with me.
Here I am in my late fifties, however I do not feel like or act like that age. According to my grandmother measurement of age I think I would hear her words. I think I feel like I am in my thirties, and sometimes in my twenties. At time I wish I could just go back to that time.

Perhaps it's the music, a piece of clothing, a movie, or a smell in the air. Whatever it is, my mind will retreat to that time in my life. For that moment in time I feel young again. Do you think that is what keeps us young?

I have read where it is thought that keeping the mind working and learning new things keeps us young. There are so many fifty and sixty year old doing all kind of new things. Somethings that the teens like to do. Then the teens are wondering why these older folks are there. Oh they will find out later in life. We are as old as we let ourselves be. I Love that commercial that has the college boy saying " I moved back home ......, And my parents went to bed early and did not leave me any dinner, this is not what I expected..... get older to not fun......." Meantime the commercial show the parents out partying! OH YEAH I LOVE THAT.... The boy thinks they are asleep in their room. Now that being young again.

Well, all I can say is feeling young will keep us living longer. I have a 94 year old Granny, from my mothers side, and she is always saying "I can still dance and do not feel old". Now that's how I want to be in my 90's!

Now is is time for you to answer the Question..... How Old Do You Feel?

Monday News.. A Quiet one.

Well we really did not do much over the weekend. Daughter was not happy, she is one teen that love to be going out or busy.

Hubby did work on the side of the house. He is upgrading the walk. Taking it easy and doing a little at a time.

Daughter went out driving a little, she is getting ready to take that drivers test. Friday she was out with the driving instructor, learning how to parallel park. Doing pretty good. Friday She drove to her friends house with me in my car. She did well. Saturday she drove a lot with her Dad and praticed the parking. Sunday she went out with her Dad on the highway. Also working on her photo techniques. Was working on night shots and day airplane one. I am sure she will be posting them on her blog( link on bottom of this page).


As for me I went swimming, Cooked breakfast, made lunch and dinner all weekend. I am reading my Kindle also. Love the Times magazine. Been reading about Murdoch and his dilemmas with the Britain government. My Dad use to work fior the Fox network, so I find his climb to the higher levels in Media interesting. One thing I like about the Kindle is the delivering of the magazines early. the one I was reading is dated for the 26 of July. They are delivered to the Kindle on the Sunday before. I have a few books I am reading on my Kindle.Will be doing some reviews on them soon.

Sunday I watched some Mystery Movies. I really like mysteries. Hallmark channel seems to have Music problems. One thing I do not like is that the music is too loud for the movie. We try to adjust the sound however nothing we did seem to help. It is only on that Channel.

Well that was my weekend. I will be posting photos on Wednesday this week. Be sure to stop by to see the progress of the walk. Also I posted the recipe for a breakfast dish I made over the weekend. it is on the Kitchen site. Hint do you love blueberries?

So how was your weekend?
