47

April 2 came and I had to turn 47.  This picture took some of the pain away. (I admit, I like it.  I usually hate pictures taken of me.)  However, what this picture doesn't show is the layer of Ben Gay smothered on my back and the ache in my feet.  It's not fun getting older.
Here's advice for those getting older (and who isn't) taken from many friends who have walked this path before me.
1- As your body ages, make the best of what you have.  
2-  Exercise every day.
3-  You don't have to keep up.  Going slower is ok because you are still going.
4- Wear lots of sunscreen.
I wish I had more words of wisdom.  Then again, at my age, I wouldn't be able to remember a long list.
