My mind no longer seems so alert.
I knows its not from being overworked.

I wear glasses to help me read.
But other than than I have no need.

I lay them down and they`re hard to find.
Is it because I`m losing my mind?

A cup of coffee I will put down.
But then I look and it can`t be found.

I used to dance have so much fun.
But now I`m content just sitting on my buns.

But I think I figured out what is wrong.
I`m now fifty and wonder where the years have gone.

But being a grandma has made my life complete.
Life couldn`t be better my grandson is so sweet.

Juanita, little girl. It is all in your mind.
You are very young! Why before you were born, I was travelling around the world, looking for beautiful women. And now I am travelling around the galaxy. Still looking for beautiful women. Come! fly away with me to places where infinity is young!

You're just a kid, Juanita...and you always will be!  Age is just a number and feeling old is only in your mind!
Great work!

*giggling* I think the great thing about being a grandma is we are finally old enough to really enjoy life for us...I love my grandchildren *giggling* even when I spoil them and send them home but I love the idea that I am free to live life for me...**big hugs** Now relax and enjoy your self, girl.

Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams.

North Carolina Girl - very good read about the 'mature thing', if you know what I mean.
