I know , the trouble is i really dont feel 50 , im so of a young mindset !! i made a comment about not being ready for hot cocoa , twinset and pearls , and a lovely member of my family said I would NEVER suit it and can see me rebelling in the old peoples home !!

I don't think 50 is old now is it ? Lots of my friends turned 50 last year and none of them are old.

I think at 18 I thought anyone over 30 was ancient.

I am 46 in August but apart from my dodgy back feel great, Could be due to the fact that I finally found the man I want to spend the rest of my life with, who loves me for being me (hormonal crying over nothing included!) and I love him for who he is, not what he is, or what he gives me. I *think* I get a few hot flushes in that I sometimes just feel very hot but nothing bothersome. I had one ovary removed about 10 years ago so my hormones have been a bit wonky since! Life is good, life is precious. Enjoy it.
