Mid-life Blues
Mid-life is when the growth of hair on our legs slows down.This gives us plenty of time to care for our newly acquired moustache.
In mid-life women no longer have upper arms, we have wingspans.We are no longer women in sleeveless shirts, we are flying squirrels in drag.
The good news about mid life is that the glass is still half-full,the bad news is that it won't be long before your teeth are floating in it
Mid-life is when you can stand naked in front of a mirrorand you can see your rear end without turning around.
Mid-life is when you go for a mammogram and realize thatit is the only time someone will ask you to appear topless on film.
In mid-life you are still a HOT babe, but now it comes in flashes
Mid-life is when you want to grab every firm young lovely in a tube top and scream"Listen honey, even the Roman Empire fell, and those will, too!"
Mid-life is when you go to the doctor and you realize you are now so old,you have to pay someone to look at you naked
Mid-life brings with it the wisdom to know that life throws us curvesand you're sitting on your biggest ones.
Mid-life is when you start to repeat yourself and your chins follow suit
Mid-life is when you realize that if you were a dog, you'd need a control top flea collar
Mid-life is when you look at your know-it-all, beeper-wearing teenage and think:"For this I have stretch marks??"
Mid-life is when you bounce (a lot), but you don't bounce back (It's more like Splat!)
In mid-life your memory starts to go.In fact, the only thing you can still retain is water.
Mid-life means that your Body By Jake now includes Legs By Rand McNally...more red and blue lines than an accurately scaled map of Wisconsin.
Mid-life means that you become more reflective.You start pondering the "big" questions.What is life? Why am I here?How much Healthy Choice ice cream can I eat before it's no longer a healthy choice?
But, mid-life also brings with it an appreciation for what is important.We realize that breasts sag, hips expand, and chins double,but our loved ones make the journey worthwhile.
Would any of you trade the knowledge you have now for the body you had back then?Maybe our bodies have to expand to hold all the wisdom and love we've acquired...
anyway that's my philosophy and I'm sticking to it!
