Must you stay at home and whither away and no longer enjoy life?

    I'm a grandmother of three and I'm having the best time of my life! We ski, hike, bike, travel - this is the time to do it! The old adage "You're only as old as you feel" is very true. If you feel youthful and sexy - you are!

    Man, I sure hope not, or I'm totally doing it wrong! I figured out after the first grandchild that fitness is a requirement, cuz man can them little buggers run quick!

    grandmothers are younger these days. We don't look like our mom's did. we look younger, have more energy, we work out. I have my granddaughters all the time and just love it, we do all sorts of things together (ahh, yes we do bake lots of cookies). no requirements other than LOVE!! have fun.

    Hmmm, I am a grandmother of 3... and I bake them cupcakes and cakes and cook yummy stuff for them (I don't tell them I healthy up the recipes and they can't tell the difference)... I also sing karaoke, dance poorly, can drink like a fish (but it's very rarely), and cuss like a sailor...

    I'm also the grandmother who makes them go outside and play instead of sitting inside on a video game all the time.

    I do love a rocking chair... but I don't have one...

    Karaoke is my thing, we do it a lot at my house. I dance my butt off, to Reggae & Soca that is. I love a rocking chair or a recliner, but do not have one. I told my children that I wanted one for christmas or my birthday last year, well, I am still waiting....lol
