EVEN CELEBRITIES ARE GETTING OLD !

Blogger staff meeting :
"implementing these changes won't be easy !
We're pretty set in doing things the wrong way "




Help ! I was forced to switch to the new IMPROVED ????? Blogger version. Can only say, why make it easy when you can do it in a complicated way ! So please if there is something wrong in my settings, please tell me !

What do I have to do to be able to type the names "UNDER" the pictures ??? 

I just discovered that I am not the only one getting older, but some celebrities really let themselves go  !

SITTING IN THE WRONG BODY

When my three friends and I went to the Carnival in Binche together we entertained the whole train compartment and not even on purpose. We were just discussing amongst other subjects what kind of men were on the market actually for them. (I am the only one still married and start to think that I earn a golden medal for that).

We came to the conclusion that the choice was not very big, or fat or bald or both, there were only very few once well conserved, to make it worthwhile to start cooking, washing and ironing for a men again.

The young men and girls all students in the compartment laughed their heads off and we quickly became very popular. On the streets it wasn't better especially for me because of my orange wig. Young men who saw me from the back tried to carry me with them and to push me into a café to offer me a drink, but then when I turned around and they saw me from the front, they laughed and called me the funniest granny they had ever seen, and wanted to keep me with them as a sort of mascot.

I don't know if it was my laughter and my joking or just the orange wig, but I
came to the conclusion that this French proverb is very true :

"She looks from the backside "lycee" (highschool)
and from the front "musée" (museum)"

This fact made me thoughtful only for a minute because I feel as if I am sitting in the wrong body which doesn't fit with my mind anymore !

But I think this is still better than looking "young" like a caucasian with a stretched facelifted chinese face, feeling old and counting booboos, then having fun and enjoy life with a few wrinkles in the face !

FUN MONDAY - TURNING 80 !

Sayre
has the following assignment for us this week :

Using your imagination, project into the future and tell me what you will be like as an 80-year old. Will you be someone who doesn't accept the aging process, spending all your time in the
gym and the bars, or will you be a rocking chair granny, or something in between?

As I have only 14 years left to reach this age, I don't have to use a lot of imagination. Wrinkles are there and that's it. If I will not have any serious health troubles, I will just go on like I do now.

See :



Ageing is a philosophy of life. I would never use the sentence : "at my time" because my time is not yet over. I am still there and don't look at the roots of the flowers in my grave ! I only look back, for nice memories otherwise I prefer to look into the future and keep myself up to date. I never reject something new and even the new mobile generation which does laundry, dishwashing, ironing, emails, internet and TV that you can also use as a telephone seems very practical to me. That I use my old machines for that is a personal choice.

I will continue to travel through the world, I will take pictures and keep my blogs up, and even when I am sitting in a wheelchair I can still use my computer as my window to the world.


Laughing is the best remedy against wrinkles !


and so I would push my computer around, except I would have another hairdo. (The apple has nothing to do with the picture !)
