Mama Manifesto



I'm feeling old and would love it if you'd come on over to Mama Manifesto and make a comment.

  1. Ah ha, you are using a photograph of me without my permission!! It's o.k. though. Plus, I never finished that piece of knitting--or any other piece-- but I've started plenty. = )

    Best.

  2. Commented at Mama Manifesto. Just want to say too that your calmness and ability to strategize and persuade are a perfect marriage of intuition (right brain) and logic (left brain). You're like gold that has been refined.

  3. Bonnie stole my line ... but that's okay.

    Found a quote,cuz that is what I do sometimes:

    "As we grow old…the beauty steals inward."~Ralph Waldo Emerson

    With that said,I sure know the tole the last 4 years has taken on me but I try and wear it gracefully.Try being the operative word.

  4. Old means giving yourself permission to relax, kick back and revel in your authenticity. Take naps, make mistakes, experiment and wear comfortable clothes. Break an ankle, take valium and enjoy it. Hire a cleaning service without guilt. Eat ice cream and hot fudge. I was afraid of feeling old until I realized all the advantages and freedom which only comes with age. I am finally comfortable in my own skin now that it has started to relax...it was just too tight before and gave me migraines
