@Flora, Thank you so much. I’m glad you enjoy it.
The reminder to keep dancing is a good one.

Keep dancing and strut when you wear that purple T-shirt Walker! I love your outlook and your writing!

@Shannon Boyles, You’re the second person to ask me about the t-shirt. I’ll have to see if I can find where came from. I’m glad you enjoyed the post, thank you.

@Jen,
Hi, isn’t it fascinating how we come into our own with age with time. Love the ‘arms aren’t long enough’.

It’s been a long haul with my mother and now I’m the one who’s having to do some of the ‘parenting’ with her. And, as a mother and now a grandmother I understand that the ‘mother’ part will always be there.

I only recently entered my 40s, okay, I’m almost half way through them but I feel younger now than I did in my 30s and 20s. I creak more and my arms aren’t as long as they need to be but all in all I am much more comfortable in my skin now than I have ever been. Your mom is probably just looking out for you and wanted to give you something you would use and enjoy, which you seem to be doing. Funny thing about motherhood is that we are learning along the way with our kids and sometimes that takes a long time.

Yes it is! I love being a little outrageous and had an acquaintance, who I haven’t seen in a year, tell me how different I seemed. Nothing new, I just now feel no need to try and be something I’m not! It feels good.
I’d hesitate to use the word “well preserved”, you’re not a pickle but you do look quite good!!

@Barbara, As long as I can enjoy being me that’s enough for now. Sadly, it has taken me a while to get to this place.
