Well at least in some stores and restaurants! I will be 55 on Thanksgiving! For the past year my husband has been reminding me that I can get senior citizens deals soon. He is so funny...not. I really don't mind getting older though. It hit me more when I was 29 going on 30 for some reason. Isn't that weird?
My husband bought me the color nook e-reader for my birthday and Christmas. I can't wait to set it up! It looks interesting. Especially if I can get my e-mails on it. It will also be nice that I will be able to listen to books as I am working on miniatures! I LOVE books! and now that I can listen and mini at the same time I am in 7th heaven!
I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving and those of you who don't celebrate it where you are have a wonderful day! Hugs, Teresa
A friend sent me this...I love it.

ReplyDeleteIt gripes me that I'll be considered a senior 10 years younger here than I would were I still living in England where the senior age is 65 :-)
Hi Teresa, You taught me something today; I'm a senior and I didn't know it! I guess I better start taking advantage of those good deals! Seriously, though, I appreciate your vignette about time. Hope your Thanksgiving was good!
