    Haha! Yeah. I get really annoyed with people like that. The fact that I used to be like that just makes it even more annoying!! Then life happened. Ah well, we're going to die of something

    Hi! I'm 47 and 34 days into the 17 day diet. I'm trying to get into shape (finally). I wish I could say I had noble goals, but honestly, I want to date more and buy a Naama Betzalel dress (local designer--I'm in Israel). Happy to make some more friends to keep me on the straight and narrow.

    It's as good a goal as any!!! I have some pants I bought made out of very flimsy material. It split on every seam the first time I wore it and I had to sew it smaller. So now I am waiting/working on myself until I can fit into that with the risk of tearing any more material!!!!

    Very interesting this past week:

    A 28 year old supervisor was in my office talking to her manager who's in his 30s, discussing a new 21 year old employee. Apparently now that she's so "old" she finds it difficult to understand these young people.

    Then I left to visit one of my customers, and in conversation I discovered he's 42 and glad for all the wisdom he's gained in his "long life" so far.

    What should I say at 52, when all these people think they're so old already?!?!

    I'm going to Vegas in June. Every summer I love the dresses that everyone wears. For many years I've always said, "I would love to lose some weight and be able to wear some of these cute summer dresses." Now, that isn't my only goal, but a short term one. I've already bought the dress that I plan on taking on my trip.

    I think your goal is a great one! Good luck on your goal and I'm sure you will have great success getting there! :)

    If you could move to any country.... what country would you move to and why would you move there?

    I would go back to Guam. The family atmosphere and the way the ocean air smelled first thing in the morning...ocean water so clear you could see your feet walking out into the ocean :)

    Title says Upper 30's. 35 is halfway to 70, and my one gran died before she reached 70. Not many people live to 100 so I would think 50 is the upper limit. So I guess 35 to 50 is the most logical range

    Upper limit says 50ish, but I'm not sure how far "ish" goes.

    My niece asks me that all the time. I always respond that I already did that when I moved to Israel. Annoys the crap out of her. :p
