I started life over at 54....10 years ago after leaving a 33 year bad marriage. The last 13 years of that time, all I wanted to do was die. Before that I hid in my computer engineering career.

The last 10 years has been amazing. I think & feel young again....UNTIL....i spend all day clearing brush, climbing in & out of the bed of my truck, around my new little 10 acre farm then go to my ballroom dance class group for 3 hours at night. I ride horses. My muscles & all my previous injuries & broken bones tell me Im older than my brain thinks. I push myself physically like I always did when I was young playing hard games of racquetball with the guys I worked with. My brain doesnt get that my body isnt as young as it used to be. Think I have the oppisite problem....& I end up spending a week trying to recover from some of my activities. Hot showers & heating pads have become my friends since I have no intention of slowing down till I die.....20+ years from now.
