It ain’t the years it’s the mileage. Mine was mostly off road so physically I’m with you on the aches and pains. I am however immature so that counts for something right?

I always have to think about it now when someone asks my age. I can’t really believe that I’m 56 so I guess I must feel like I’m forty something.

How about the puzzling gap between how your singing voice sounds to you and how it sounds to other people???

17. Forever think act and feel 17. A stupid but quite nice 17 year old. Forever wanting to be told I'm an amiable young man on a reference. The other day I said I shouldn't worry , I'm in my 50s... my mouth said that , brain wasn't quite sure. However when I bend over I'm about 78.

My felt age varies depending on where on the cycle in the meds I am, so anywhere from 42 to 102. Makes for an interesting day at least I don't always hit the peak.

35 I shall remain… until my 50 year old body eventually wins and convinces my mind otherwise through the use of unwanted restrictions being forced upon it. I will fight it all the way!! 😁
