I am fab over fifty.no kids and enjoy going to rock concerts. I’m too busy being fabulous to sweat the small stuff.
LouAnn Angelo Bramante says:
I got 9 out of the 15. At 56, I am quite aware of my age and am okay with it but like to look good and feel good – thus I enjoy checking out the new creams and lotions. So, I consider myself more self-confident than undecided. However, because I don’t have children, I didn’t think I could factor (#10) in the survey for myself. What I don’t do, are numbers 5 (beyond checking up on husband); 6 (can work my smartphone fine); 9 (no need to sneak wine at my age); 11 (really don’t know who North West is, where Northwest is yes); and 15 (not a big Beach Boys fan so I don’t blast Wouldn’t It Be Nice, I do blast other songs from the past).

Deb Hanson says:
I don’t do many of those things, but I do know many young women who do so I don’t know if it’s really an “50 and Old” indicator.
Judy Meidel says:
9 – My age says I’m 52 but I still feel the same as I did in my 20’s. My body just keeps reminding me that I’m 52.
Allison says:
oh, puleeze
ctgal says:
Only 1 applied to me! And that makes me on the fence? No, I think that just makes me not obsessed with myself and makes me feeling great about me, regardless of all the “stuff” that’s happening to me.

You got me at TV boyfriend..and then a whole lot more. Fun post! 😉
Geri Brin says:
Hi Jeanne,
Who is your TV boyfriend. 🙂
Mine is British actor Martin Clunes. I “met” him through a show called “Doc Martin,” which ran 6 seasons and was wildly popular in the UK. I watched every episode, practically back-to-back a few weekends ago and now I miss Martin!
Fondly,
Geri
