    You know you're getting old when...

    ...you get a reminder that your 25 year HS reunion is next year. :dizzy

    Anyone else have any 'OMG I'm old' moments lately?

    well, sort of. hubby has all of a sudden hit a mid-life crisis of sorts, thinking that he needs to look like The Rock for his class reunion this year. *lol* trust me, he's got a long way to go :rofl

    i think this year is supposed to be his 15 yr reunion, although it will actually be the 16th year since he graduated :shrug maybe they don't do math at the school he graduated from???

    I'm reminded daily as my 2nd child is a sophomore in HS and graduates in 2014. Yikes. And I have 3 more behind him.

    Must we go there?!?!?! OMG, my 30th HS Reunion is next year and I'm so ready for it too! Believe it or not, it has gotten better over the years and as the years pass, most of the childish behavior has waned as well. And to see the cheerleaders and footballs players who were 'HAWT' in high school sure don't look the same now! Bwahahahaha!

    And my youngest turned 26 last month so yeah, there are days I feel my age but then there's others that I feel pretty good with where I've landed in life. It's telling people I have 8 grandbabies that sucks! But I'm glad I had my kids early and they have their kids now because I actually get on the floor and wrestle with the grandsons and they LOVE it! At least I'm not too old to enjoy these moments.

    **not to make you feel old lol**
    That's the same thing my mom always says. She says that's the upswing of having kids at 18, and the only upswing to your daughter having kids at 17. lol

    My mom says te same thing Melanie! She had me when she was 22 and I had my oldest when I was 23. She's not even 50 (yet) and loves telling people that she has 2 granddaughters because they make her feel young. Haha!

    I have "OMG I'm old" moments every single day.

    but then I see people my age that LOOK that old, and I feel young again! I really don't "feel" this old unless I forget to take my celebrex and I can't move...

    I think people my age look far older than me. Maybe I'm in denial. :rofl

    Oh my goodness! This is totally cracking me up. The darn grey hairs are about the only things that make me look older, but I've had this darn streak of gray since I was 18, so I just hide it under a lovely bit of hair color and I'm back to pretending I'm still young. :)

    Oh Crap! That's me!

    I work around quite a few ladies and I'm shocked when they tell me how OLD they are and they're younger than me. Most people think I've still got kids in Jr. High. HA! I do think that keeping active...even just a little...helps to keep me feeling younger than what I really am. And yes....I am in Denial and its my Friend!

    Well I just celebrated my 30th birthday yesterday... 'nuff said....

    My mom had me when she was young too and loves the fact that she under 50 and has 2 grandchildren. But I have a downside to having a mom that's only 18 years older, she likes to think we're in a freakin' competition. Seriously, mom, when you were 30 you weren't in great shape and all that... but she expects me to be freakin' super mom, work, raise a family and run a freakin' marathon... anyhow, that's a whole other can of worms. lol! I've been having mommy issues as of late, can ya tell?
